Is this your best auto balance system?

I can’t suppress anymore.
yes… these things can often happen.
but i have often experienced this sort of thing.
have seen this situation before met phoenix.
and many people didn’t agree to shuffle vote when this.
than, i can see my lose scoreboard of future…
so, when will you fix this frequently crazy happening, SD?

Server broswer is very difficult to balance since all players (and all skill levels) have access and can join/leave a match at any time. I do think the balance algorithm could be improved since even when the game balances full teams in lobby the results are often poor. It even creates 6v4 or 5v3 sometimes which is odd.

AFAIK recent win/loss ratio is still the biggest balance factor for browser lobby balance and shuffle votes. Would be great if browser could use more stats or MMR from CMM to balance instead.

i know that join/leave a match at any time.
but i said auto balance. join, and leave is not auto.
i saw very often unbalance when game start.

I agree this is something that can and should be improved.

Since SD is focusing more on CMM, I’m surprised CMM doesn’t have any sort of autobalance. I can understand if the server browser doesn’t since they’re trying to make it “unofficial” or whatever, but still.

Will CMM get autobalance? Maybe, probably, it’s hard to say, but I think SD knows they could improve things a lot of they did.
Will server browser servers get autobalance? Probably not, considering I’ve heard rumors it might be removed entirely. And the fact that there hasn’t even been an attempt to add autobalance to the server browser for as long as it’s existed.

At least Asia is supposed to get CMM soon though
