greed conspiracy: giving tryhards hope means they play longer meaning you make more ad money off them
with that being said, im not accusing pelican of purposely making the matchmaking this way to motivate noobs and spammers to play more so they can make more money, but even if they did do this on purpose, i wouldn't hate them, but i would be a bit dissappointed (i mean this game is prolly their main source of cash and it could turn them into ballers, and pissing off tens thousands of good players (who would be very willing to stay being in a fair matchmake condition) to satisfy hundred of thousands of spammers and noobs (who wouldn't be as much willing to stay even if they were in fair matchmake conditions) is a pretty good deal if it makes them like 250% more cash.
