Instead of skill based MM per se, how about the MM take account of skill and simply employ a handicap system on hit points, sorta like horse racing and weights? So, if you come up against God's XV of raging Viking unicorns with your team of Satan's spawn of deepest red clueless tomatoes and you have a win chance of 14%, your team might get a 10-15% HP buff on all it's vehicles?

 

That way, you can all take an extra shot or two and say in the fight longer, while if you still lose the other guys get to feast on extra XP from the damage?

yes. if you are good you get put into matches. If you are bad you get put into matches.

 

If you have a bad win rate you tend to lose more than you win in your future games. If you have a good win rate you tend to win more than you lose in your future games.

SKILL BASED MM IS CONFIRM!

Should make forum, skill base as well. Using Subtle as the metric.

 

 

So unicum forumers are penalized by being restricted only to Comic Sans?

I'd quit.  [edited] Comic Sans.

The Dream

[_Thadeous]

All that would happen it the good players would be able to get more damage from the tomato sitting in the middle of the open field.

I can see it now - player does 0.25 of their HP in damage per battle... gets 4x their normal HP. Imagine those mad wn8s.

 

The alternative to adding HP to the XP pinatas was of course to reduce the HP of the goods... the antipadding would be real.

[Mother_Of_All_Rommel]

I would prefer damage penalty/buff for this new MM system. A value of 30% +/- would give me better chances against purple, and comic sans idea was neat to
