4v4 TMM slot assignment

waffelzNoob

I've come to notice I'm getting the same spot a lot when playing 4v4 TMM. I also frequently am the highest rated player in my team, so I'm wondering, does it automatically put the highest rated players in slots 1 and 2 (usually air spots)?
If so, it would be cool if this could be randomized (but still mirrored ofc) because it would give people a more varied experience of gameplay

Or maybe I'm just unlucky...

I think you’re just getting unlucky. The code already randomized the spots regardless of which matchmaker you’re playing. Here’s the exact line where it happens:
