RE: Some thoughts on 2v2 matchmaking
Interesting to see how the matchmaking works!
I would consider changing it so that the matches have a skill range they accept to something like:
Day 1: accept players close to skill level
Day 2: accept players with twice the skill range
Day 3: accept quadruple skill range
Day 4: accept all players

This skill range also needs to be reset every time a new player joins the game. Otherwise if player 3 joins after 3 days, it is a huge drawback for player 2.

So when a new player joins the steps would be:
1. Find all matches that accepts my skill level.
Priority:
Games waiting longer have priority (day 4 gets matched before day 3 games etc)
If same wait period, game skill rating have priority (game with skill rating 200 matched before skill rating 150)

2. If no found, create a new game.


For 1v1: the only problem I experienced is what Terence and Torbreck mentions: the high super titans are not getting matched with enough people. Maybe take the rating for the currently 10th ranked player and make a special case that players with a higher rating than that gets a wider search?

Soldier spam FTW
