I am still in Silver...I have tried other schemes so I did lower the overall fans I could have gained sticking with the scheme I like...However, past that I go on a win streak and win 2 games vs 500 power teams, so not really competitive games...usually 1500 to 600...Those games were easy...The next 3 games were against 2 top 1000 and 1 top 100 with all 800+ power teams...I have a 620 power team, so I am expecting this “new” matchmaking to get me 700-800 max for a low win streak and 4-5+ give me 1000+... However I notice I got close to the same fans from 1 win than I got from 1 lose... Which seems weird considering the skill of the top 100 player didnt use any boosts and just used TEs and his hb with simple variety play...That is fine, but I am not as skilled as him just by the first few minutes I could tell, but I lose 500 fans...I won 500 fans from going against 500 power teams, so why is it I lose to a 800 high skilled player and lose the same fans as winning against a low tiered player...I get I get less for wins, but that fan comparison...I would need an insane amount of wins on an absolutely amazing streak just to get to gold...I would honestly be in favor of scrapping this matchmaking system and just make it more of overall based than skill based at this point...Obviously, it seems harder to account for skill based upon the different varying factors like coach, captain, and pressures which ultimately make the match...Lose by pressures, or by not getting captain bonus, or win by getting offensive bonuses...It just seems accounting for skill does not work when you have to face people who have better overalls which can make or break a match at certain positions, or if the AI is in favor of one team and locks down the other team with perfect coverages every play...Or not wanting to tackle a wr or hb by the sidelines...Kind of a rant, but honestly a 1:1 ratio when vsing a 800 power high skilled and 500 power no skill...
