I can support this, today just three balanced games.
Rest (approx 15 games) completely off the MUs scale.
Basicaly noname blues seems like just kickced from academy agains full proto groups.
Basicaly i was lucky when i stazed alive for few minutes, blues were completely confused what they should do.
I dont feel arsekicked i was on BPO, but blues hell they left or stayed afk.
Overall not great experience for them, MU was more stable before now its like 30 notched rest just he dont care.
Sometimes i feel like MU working just when i was really good PIRMATAR

When your ratios are proper and no longer inflated it will work properly duh.

There is something definitely wrong with the team builder script or whatever it is called. In every battle all I got was blue berries on my team. I mean, literally new people from corps I've never seen before yet, on the other team it was the who is who from dust 514. There was even 1 battle that it had at least 2 representatives from the top corps like fatal absolution, nyan san, gods among men etc etc. All proto stomping ofcourse. Now, I'm not against playing top teams but, when everybody on team A is proto and everybody in team B is a noob then that is unfair. Needless to say I brought out my cheapo suits and still got top place on every battle which is kind of sad. There was another battle where the enemy team was not only running proto, they also brough out 2 tanks 3 ships and a few cars. Needless to say we got cloned out and it was a 5 letter skirmish. Yes, they even took all 5 letters.

One thing I heard is that the trick to spam the system is to put a noob as a squad lead. This way the team builder utility goes by the the noobs score and not the entire team. I don't know if this is true or not but, there is something fishy about the way the teams are set up lately.

and our squad lead is what I would call a low-MU player,

i agree iv been in many a onesided game where it was just stomping newberrys still in npc corps and MLT gear

LOL, we're having problems understanding something. There is NO engine that is going to figure out if "Harry" is going to do a good job and help you win the match in the next Skirmish.
CCP says their studies show that the matchup engine is working well, and I think they are right.
It may match us up based on our "number stats" from past games...

But what does that have to do with whether "Pauly" (who has GREAT stats), will feel like doing his usual stuff using his usual suit in THIS match now? If Pauly is in a "screw my landlord" mood today, he's not bringing his A-game this time.

If "Celee" is destracted by other stuff in her life right now, she may get in your match just to be on her own and shoot stuff for ISK--not do what "the matchup engine" says she's typically good at.

Some days, you're going to get paired with a bunch of folks who aren't going to give your their best TODAY----nobody's created "automation-engine-thingy's" that will pamper us by detecting moods and concentration-abilities for our next match.

It doesn't mean "Stuff is BRO--KIN". That's become WAY too trendy and spoiled an opinion for us. We're all getting guilty of using it too much. (yes, me too.)
