I think the scope in which you can make changes in the game is very limited.

The best thing u can do for the matchmaking(even right now)Bring back the threat districts and lock them only for players same threat.In same time bring the free for all district everybody play right now in live game.U call it mixed/fusion or whatever you want district.Is possible..to have the threat districts and one for all in same time cause if you remember gold players was capable to enter silver dist,silver-bronze dist. etc.

Basically what we need is mix between the current way we play in live game and the old way with the threat districts.Thats how if u want u can find fair matches in ur own threat dist. or play in the free 4 all dist. if theres not enough players(like in NA case)

Threat districts ruined this game. They need to remove threat entirely and match based on quantity only, like the thousands of successful games did prior to when casuals got into video games.

He means like just 3v3 or 4v4 etc which is crazy means even worse than what we have right now.Now everybody are in 1 place but at least the system tries to match available skill players.If they remove even the player threat-thats open conflict dist.Hes not thinkin i guess..

Bringing back threat locked districts will only make matchmaking worse. Players of lower skill will go up in threat because they will never face anyone better than them. Then when their threat is too high they'll be forced into the next threat level district, and get destroyed. If that's what you want, then just remove threat. Same outcome except without the dethreating.
