guess no beliefs will be had today.

To be honest I'm starting to care very little about matchmaking itself, I just want the quality-of-life updates that hopefully will come with it. Performance, bugfixes, rebalancing, that's the real shiznit there.

Yeah, who even cares about matchmaking?

We just want need more standard bugfixes and rebalancing. That's what's really gonna help the TF2 comp setting take off.

So you care less about matchmaking because it's coming later than you expected?

No, at first it was just WHOA MATCHMAKING HYPE~~~ but how many of us are actually playing this? New players should be excited, pubbers who wanted to try competitive but always felt it was too daunting should be excited, the high level sixes scene should be excited for the hope of a playerbase growth and maybe that e-sport dream, but for the run-of-the-mill player that has done comp but not at a invite/prem level, matchmaking in itself isn't a big deal, you'll probably spend a few hours ranking up and get bored and go back to pugs.

Competitive-oriented improvements to the core game are a big deal for every single one of us, though.

I'm with 4hp on this one. I mean I'm delighted that they're doing this and when it was first announced I was incandescent but even the majority of open players will probably be better than the majority of people in these matchmaking games. What I'm really hyped for is the increased attention and intake of players that matchmaking will bring. What will save the competitive scene is being able to sell our format to the wider player base so that we can replace players faster than they can leave. We can just about do that right now but as the game gets older and more people towards the top get bored it'll become harder.

@4hp and the people that downvoted my posts, are you guys just not hype at all for match making?

Edit: Are you not hype about how match making will help the comp scene grow, in size?

To be fair basically everyone who visits this site already plays a superior form of competitive TF2. I've been saying that MM isn't really for us for a long time. Great way to grow the game but we (ok y'all) have a few leagues, pug systems, lobbies, and all that jazz that are already a "better" format of the game than MM is going to be off the bat. MM is going to hopefully go a long way toward removing the barrier for entry, along with possibly changing the format we have in leagues right now.
