Until the NA community collectively decides to change to its culture and approach to matchmaking/improvement it won’t matter who/what service is created/used.
The community needs to decide Matchmaking services add value to skill progression other then just bragging rights

So can NA actually stay committed to using a matchmaking site? My time on Smashmate in Japan was very seamless and made grinding the game online there effortless, I don't get why services like MatchBox die when they provide basically all the essentials you need for matchmaking

@PracticalTAS @L4st_v1 @imESAM @zorsti Maybe, but products can be changed and adjusted easily, culture is a lot harder to change, so even if I built the exact product to spec that you’re talking about it wouldn’t matter if the culture wasn’t ready to support it. Of course we want to build what the community wants.

It’s almost like one region has a resource that is used by its entire player base to improve while others hides its top players behind gated discord communities 🤔 🤷

@PracticalTAS @L4st_v1 @imESAM @zorsti Hate to break it to you but it’s not a product problem, it’s a culture problem. If it was a product problem one of the multiple other entries in the space would have taken root.

@MatchpointGG_ @L4st_v1 @imESAM @zorsti I hate to break it to you but you first need to build a service that the top players want to use before everyone else can get games with them using your service
English
@L4st_v1 @imESAM @zorsti The difference is opportunity, in closed systems only those with access get the opportunity to participate. In open systems like Smashmate that use ELO as an objective rating system everyone is afford the opportunity to access higher levels of comp as they improve up the ladder.
English
@zorsti @MatchpointGG_ top players use the services, they suck or dont work for one reason or another, so people dont use them anymore. Every top player was using matchbox or whatever, then we stopped because it didnt actually help.
top players arent “locked behind discords”

@kamoun_epice ITS ALMOST LIKE THAT WAS ASKED OF THE MATCHBOX DEVS TO DO THAT BUT THEY DIDNT ISNT THAT FUNNY
And then the original post says how we’re gatekeeping ryugacord when it’s a good source to find good opponents closer to you
English
It’s almost like Japan is the size of California and they don’t have to worry about 4-10 frames of input delay when attempting to practice on a matchmaking website because whether they match with someone from the east coast, west coast, or a diff country is completely random.

Rumor has it people are planning queueing starting at 7pm EST tonight 👀

“People just use matchmaking to get wins in better players to brag about it, not as a tool to actually improve”
Once ppl realize that it’s your Rank on the ladder and not individual wins that matter, this sentiment will change.
Remember:
English
Fun Fact: If all the people who say “I would play on the matchmaking sites if they were active” actually started queuing, then the matchmaking sites would be active.
Be the change you want to see. #passiton

The skill ceiling in NA Smash is declining will continue to degrade until the community shifts its mindset and starts adopting open and objective spaces where players connect with other players in competitive formats outside tournaments to improve.
English
@lostzawg @REALOranguBang Point degradation is a natural sign of a healthy ladder system it makes it very hard to just sit top because points are being traded frequently
