What do you think of implementing an option to choose another mu rather than the mirror? I personally would enjoy ladder so much more if I could just play TvZ rather than ZvZ.

If you pick a vsR race, it works? A lot of people still would pick z vs z no? However, it would require changing "per race MMR" to "per account" I guess. | ||

Creating subsets of matchmaking just dilutes the system and muddles the player population. People will start requesting, "Why can't we have a ladder just for my Terran or just for my Zerg? Or why not just have a ladder for specific matchups?" (These have already emerged) Just stop. You should be thrown into the gauntlet of ladder and face your opponent as is. | ||

Going to be inflating everyone's MMR so much, as I have no idea how to wall in P vs Z and similar problems in T vs T. | ||

The lack of MU picking and the removal of the 2 minute leave rule are to me personally the biggest issues currently in sc:r. (Currently, if you get matched against someone with severe lag, you are forced to play them, which is a complete pain in the ass). | ||

Is a player really that good if they stick to only one matchup? This would severely skew the leaderboard. i dont see how can anyone choose his best MU.. it is not like anyone is going to be dodging MUs. | ||

That way, if you are matched against a random, your "main race" is picked, and there won't be any conflict (although this way you can technically still get a mirror when you play against random, it is still infinitely better than the system currently in place). The lack of MU picking and the removal of the 2 minute leave rule are to me personally the biggest issues currently in sc:r. (Currently, if you get matched against someone with severe lag, you are forced to play them, which is a complete pain in the ass). this please.. if would encounter mirrors mu in 1v1 i will quit that game when it starts i do not wish to play mirror and nobody can force me to do so.. | ||

Lopata responded by saying it could be random. | ||
