Matrimonium Matching Hickups [Fixed]

While playing the bottom node (the vampire node) I was matched against Lolth.

This shouldn't be possible, since the nodes are matched against each other and the top one is blue/white/green.

    Let me tell you an even better story... the matchmaking in this entire event is messed up. Not only are fights between both bottom and top nodes (e.g. if you are playing on the bottom node, you can face decks from both nodes), but also the level of your opponent varies. I used two level 60 walkers and sometimes I was matched to a lower level opponent. The lowest one I was matched against was level 36. AND... that's not all. As a platinum player, I was also matched to a Silver player once. AND... that's still not all. One of our gold players reported that he had to face platinum players too. So the reverse is also true.

    @Oktagon_Support: We've seen the same behavior during the first iteration of this event. Please fix this before you run this event the next time. Thanks a lot!

    Of cause it is not fixed, @octagon_support ! How can I get my secondarys if my opponent is L30 and I am L60?

    First match bottom node, even though I'm Platinum I've been paired with someone way lower than that

    This is issue is clearly NOT fixed at all. My next match is against a level 49 Planeswalker from a Bronze player while I'm in Platinum using a level 60 Planeswalker

    Why wouldn’t you be able to hit your secondaries on this event? None of them are based on the opponent doing anything, right?

    Because the opponent had much lesser live, that means he is sooner defeated.  The shuffler didn't work always, so it's pure luck if you draw your creatures, even if you have 4 or 5 in your deck. That's mean you need to make the game as long till you hit the secondarys. But in Pq creatures auto Attack. Do you get my point or should I explain further?

    Makes sense. I almost always pack stuff to destroy my own creatures in coalition events, but I can see how the shorter “timer” would make things a little more RNG-dependent in this scenario.

    Another one on the very last recharge so no one can say that it only happens because "not enough players have joined the event yet".

    Many of the decks didn't seem to be Event decks at all. Not sure if that's a bug or lazy players?
