    Another thing that has to be considered is the fact that the AI is incredibly dumb, heck i'm going to admit that i've won some matches just because they decided to match environment tiles instead of farming a color to use an ability.

    Now back to MMR and this AI defending thing, it still seems your MMR gets reduced when you get attacked.....why? you're not playing, how can that has a meaningful impact on the MMR? How about that if you get attacked you get a "pool" of points that are being challgened like this:

    Player A attacks Player B - This match has a wager of 30 points, Player A wins, he has a guaranteed 15 points, now, if Player B retaliates and wins, then he gets the other 15 points, otherwise if he skips or loses Player A gets the full 30 points, there, everyone happy, no one loses points and player intereaction is present, also MMR should be calculated ONLY when there's a player interaction IF I WIN OR LOSE it's when my MMR should be changed, not when the AI wins or loses a match for me

    I can go for this!! In theory icon_e_biggrin.gif
    The only possible downside is the delay in receiving the points which would depend on how long it took Player B to either skip or retaliate. And what if he just left a node untouched with a retaliation sitting there and played the other nodes?

    Yeah well there could be some holes to be filled in this idea, one solution could be add a timer for the retaliation that when finished counts as a forfeit, in any case those are additional points, you must make your calculations towards your first win.

    Another idea i have is to make retaliations appealing with a bonus only to the defender, so it goes like this

    Player A vs Player B - Wager 30 points

    A Attacks B and wins - A gets 15 points
    B gets the chance to retaliate within a 1 or 2 hours frame to get 15 points and a retaliation bonus of let's say 5 points
    B wins gets 20 points total
    B Loses then A gets the other 15 points for a total of 30

    The other scenario

    A attacks B and loses - A loses 15 points
    Again B gets the chance to retaliate within a time frame and the bonus
    B wins gets a total of 20 points
    B loses then gives 15 points to A

    I think it would make the game a little bit more dynamic and player interaction oriented rather than rewarding/punishing the AI
