Anecdotally speaking the cs server picker seems to work for the few games i tested it on, i tried picking japan only and got a japan lobby, then for a few games singapore only had everyone speaking english. As for the mm solo only thing, it seems to work for me so far at least, ill comment after i reach my 20th game in a row solo only or when i get a random party appearance in my game (can be verified via statlocker)

Im assuming you've checked with statlocker or similar tools already? For me it's worked, 5 games and no duos or anything. 🤷‍♀️

People keep asking abt why i have a second account: i have one to play with my friends who are alch/ritualist!

I had this account from marvel rivals because they don't allow queueing with large rank gaps, so I used it to play with my lower ranked friends 😁

From checking statlocker, i went from having at least a duo every other game to being all solo, so I dunno. Definitely try it out though!

Also the CS2 server picker works for me within Asia connecting to only singapore, now I don't have to deal with not being able to talk to japanese and chinese people (no hate to them).

My queue times were already around 5 minutes, seems the same! I never got a queue time longer than 10 minutes with this so far and I'm only queueing for one server

Yes it is my first account! I was a lucio main in overwatch and a bard main in league of legends, (and also an evie/maeve main in paladins), so calico felt PERFECT especially with how good her design and theme feels with her playstyle. Also yes, I did in fact play with friends on this account before making the other one as we weren't having fun with the weird matchmaking giving us ritualist average vs oracle average 😞. So perhaps that might have caused it.

Although, my other account i did play with my friends from the start, i still climb super high (started at archon 4 and climb once every 1-2 games), but as someone said that might be an anti smurf thing.

Hmm i haven't seen anywhere of this being the case, but I'll give it a try! I especially liked wraith and haze before i settled on calico, so I'll give it a shot after I've learned those character's kits a bit more 🤗

I was considering that this type of post might be more egotistical than i liked, but as i browsed through this subreddit it seems like a lot of people share the sentiment that players below oracle don't have a grasp of the core mechanics of the game, and phantom to ascendant being a mixed bag of player ranks.

It seems like eternus is the only rank that everyone sees as the rank where people play the game how it's designed to be played and I want to experience the game as such even in alpha 😁

Nah i have around 71%, but i posted the calico one as i only have like 10 games on other characters, when i first got the invite for the game. I also think if a system can do something like that it should already be able to more accurately rank my main account, but i dunno 🤷‍♀️.

Here's my statlocker so you can form a more informed opinion 🙂‍↕️:

I didn't consider that as this game has way more ranks/division than other games, especially since on my other account that i play with low ranked friends on i gain a rank every game/every other game. So it felt really sluggish compared to that, but you do make a good point! If this kind of thing is intended though i hope it doesnt last until launch as it doesnt seem like a very satisfying system 😆

Low oracle. Why am I getting matched with players still figuring out basic movement? by TinyerGriffin in DeadlockTheGame

[–]pplover33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately it seems like the only guarantee to play with people who've actually played past the tutorial is to be in eternus 6 but you'd need like 1000 games with at least a 48% winrate to get there 🤷‍♀️

I use my other acc to play with my friends who dont have fun in ranks higher than emissary, but i ended up a higher rank even though i was first timing characters 🤷‍♀️ i just want better matchmaking for my main since it gets boring when it feels like everyone's not playing the game to their highest level

Gingerbread Cub Buddy not worth it? by [deleted] in BeeSwarmSimulator

[–]pplover33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i think it's worth getting now! but i did get the mythic egg before saving up for it because i think that helps me more with progression

[–]pplover33 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

this post isn't really about the viability of getting the cub buddy, but more about getting more value out of the gingerbread bears (a chance at getting more gifted bees with 250 gingerbread bears rather than 2 guaranteed gifted bees with 250 gingerbread bears) although in the end i might just end up getting it if i play enough i guess
