@Jaybob66 said in Why would you have left FAF?:
i quite like the idea of a new matchmaking queue, with "need a trainer" and "am a trainer" buttons.
A 2v2 queue may work better for that, matching teammates as training pairs. Players join on the understanding the higher ranked player takes the other under their wing and offers some assistance and pointers through the game.
[Edit]
1v1 could again match high with low and the players can decide what training to do in FA.
I really like the 2v2 suggestion, also for non-noobs. It is sometimes awkward to work together and find out who is boss or if you are boss. Make the buttons:
- I want to be master
- I want to have a master teammate
Ingame Master gets title "Master [name]" and the master sees that and feels free to not only take command of the team, but to meddle in build orders etc as well.
This could also be added for 1v1, if you allow a significantly underrated player to have a baseless semi-observer teammate.
- To-be trainer can clikc "Join 1v1 queue as Master"
- A button "I want to have a master observer"
If you are matched with a player like 500 rating higher, a master can be pulled into your game. Not as a real observer with full vision, but with shared vision with you and chat options.
