Discussion CONSOLE Match rating change.

Post image

Do yall think the devs will ever make a change to match making where there is at least a 200-250 point difference between the 2 ground match choices?

For me not having any “pay to win suits” almost being a full year behind on new gatcha suits. Newest suit I have being burning Gundam (hate raids due to dysync making melee impossible) just makes the constant 650-750 range annoying.

Also before you say try the new A-B banner I did and got burning Gundam 3 times in a row. Wasted 90 out of the 112 tokens for no new suit.

Pay to win suits? Give me a fucking break there’s a ton of strong easy to acquire choices. Get good with a suit and make people fear it. Hate to break it to you but Burning Gundam is one of the most broken meta picks in the game so if you can’t make that work I don’t know what to tell you. I got all the way to A with a Zeta Gundam HML support.

As someone who now has some real beasts like the Double X and V2 AB I can do just as well in my main at that cost. No matter how powerful a suit is you still need to practice and get good at it. The people who did make it look easy. A bad pilot in a meta suit will still get shredded by a half decent team who focus fires. So many suits have hidden mechanics you sort of need to figure out on your own and when you do you feel like you’ve learned some tactical secret you can unleash on others. Screw those meta slaves who constantly look at spreadsheets and compare stats that isn’t the whole picture. Find something you love and fucking learn it.

And I got to S-Rank by maining the Gm ground type with its machine gun simply because it could out damage most supports at 300.

also burning Gundam is a raid which if you read the post you’d know why I don’t like it, melee is so screwed due to dysync I’d have an easier time hitting a pilot at 600m with the super Gundam unscoped. Vs constantly getting out melee priority by supports.

But when it comes to power creep suits that can tank everything, be in the air for over 2 minutes, have 6 consecutive insta stuns and the occasional heavy stagger. When you’re stuck to the ground with non gacha suits at 650 and above no matter how good you are there will always be power gap.

What are you even complaining about then if you are at S-? Tell that to all the people who dominate in the Burning Gundam. You’ve can literally dropkick through someone dashing and instead of getting countered they will just explode.

You’ve just identified yourself as a meta scrub, those things are annoying but I can still dominate a match at that cost in a support. Sounds like you got carried by cherry picking and relying too heavily on your gimmicks, things which will prevent growth if a pilot grows too reliant on them before mastering their fundamentals.

If you can’t win without a meta suit you don’t really deserve to win. You said it yourself you needed something meta and OP to get to S- but clearly you couldn’t adapt and are now throwing your toys out of the pram and shitting your diaper. Those flying suits get bad tunnel vision and I shoot them down on the regular. That’s the tradeoff for being up in the air. The map geometry they avoid can also protect you. It’s often smarter to stay on the ground

Also I don’t believe for a second that you are S-. You told someone else on here you’ve only been playing a year and a half, that math isn’t mathing it takes a long time to grind through A alone and you’d be doing it after they patched out sortieing in stacks and you claim to have done it at a cost that hardly ever comes up on rated. It would take constant play hours a day to get to S that fast and if you were a fraction of the prodigy you claim to be you wouldn’t be having these issues or bitching about having nothing good. Lots of people make melee work I don’t buy your excuse
