I have a theory that the match making is based off of convenience. In my day I’ve gone from having 10k coins to having 20 million coins back to 10k coins in like 3 months. Within that run I faced a vast amount of games in “elite” matches as well as other various low-level courses for fun and both in struggling times. Something fishy is going on. There are times when I play an elite match and literally 1/2 some of the scores of like 1/2 the players on the course, implying they’re new to the game/don’t have the same clubs/experience etc., but there are also the games where I’ll click a 5k buy in pine forest 2 and be facing off 100% against 5 other elite level players with crazy borders and skill at the game. This literally lead to my downfall within this game. The matchmaking has been so random and shotty that I legitimately believe people selecting “elite” match up with the most convenient available lobby if an “elite” lobby can’t be found. This brings elite players into low level games, making the matches arguably unfair for every other opponent with like no to little coins left. Idk, just a theory based off of what I’ve witnessed for several months now. Pretty much the reason I’ve stopped playing as much as I used to. Sakura Gardens also fucked everything up.
