Now, I think the idea to add this was good. But, my issue is, I consistently get matched players above my skill level. In my past 8 games, I only won 1, and 6 of those games were against players with over 100 rating/elo/score above me. I fell from the 30# down to below 100 in crytal, but the same stands for the sword pvp.

As an another note, I think the way rating/elo/score is awarded is, I dont know how to say it better, but bad.
-First off, it doesnt really matters that the other player was way above your level, you still lose around the same rating.
-Secondly, it doesnt seems to matter wheter you lost 0-3 or 2-3, the latter happend quite often to me, yet I lost the same amount of rating as before.
-Thirdly, to be honest, the placment games are a bit weird too. While playing placment games, I got matched THREE TIMES against the player rated 1# (they obviusly beaten me)
-And lastly, after the placment games, I was put into the 19# spot without around 1.9k score (out of back than over 2000 players, so it's not like I played it really soon). The reason why this is bad, is becuase naturaly climbing up takes a really long time, while after 12 placement games, you can get scores way above what is to be expected. (Since I don't think I deserved the 19# placement)

Anyways, I hope this gets improved, since in it's current state, this is awful. I think the most important is the matchmaking part and my 2nd point. And it's not like the game couldnt pair me with anyone (my friend and I entered the quee at the same time, they found a game in around 20s or so, while I had to wait over 1min just than to be matched against the number one player like what).

The matchmaking is weird, but keep in mind it's in experimental phase. Hopefully they will improve it throughout the beta season. Every first ranked season for all games (even outside of mc/cube) don't offer a good elo reward and a heavy punishment on losses on the first season until next season to adjust you in the elo it feels like you deserve to be in.

Do you think my idea for a new minigame, Mob Wars, could eventually become real? Link to my plan: https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/idea-for-a-new-game-mob-wars.423511/#post-1752791
