petition to bring back the ability to snipe.

Ok, so I never actually partook in sniping, but it would be really useful now, since the computer hasn't matched me with anyone higher than my rating in 15 games. What's worse is I've only lost 2 of the games (ter adun sucks for lance btw). So either the system is seriously screwed up (most likely) or the computer really thinks I'm ranked in the 160's and has been lying to me for the past 2 weeks. Just one more reason ratings don't matter :/

I would also like tos tag on, it really can't be fun for the couple people ranked in the 190's with their 85 card Logan

decks, that I beat while maintaining my starting health the entire game.

Each time you are matched with someone lower, there is someone else being matched with someone higher. It balances itself out.

If we give you what you want, it will actually enable it to be skewed further in favour of the lower-rank person who will wait for higher rank people, which is what was possible before and led to gradual rating decline for all and high rankers stopping playing.

I totally understand the reasons for not having sniping, even if I don't think it is as big a deal as others do. What I don't understand is, how I can be paired with people lower than me *every time*. And what's more, I'm being paired with people more than 50 points lower than me 3 out of 12 times. And not a couple points over 50 below me, but 75 points below me. This is exactly why rating doesn't matter. Because even if you win 5 times more than you lose, you still get paired up with people 50+ ranks below you.
