Yeah that's basically how it works.
So its like a elo system? Still if it is its seems to be a bit poorly implemented cause in the meantime ive got my bum served on a silver plater by two randoms againYeah that's basically how it works.
Seriously though, I think there is some kind of match making system that matches you with people with similar Win/Loss ratios. This probably doesn't properly work till around 200 matches or so. Don't give up though, getting stomped on 1v1 is a great way to improve. Just stick at it, you'll start to notice yourself improving in no time
Yeah I guess you could call it that. You're not the only one that things it's kind of bad either, a lot of people think they could have done a better job. However, getting constantly bopped every match makes all the more rewarding when you actually do start to improve and win games. Good luckSo its like a elo system?

Maybe there aren't that many people playing in my zone wich i find improbable.
The thing is, there is Global Smash Power for just about every single player mode. So, do you think it means that you would have to have a high GSP on all single player modes to get matched with good players? Really though, I am constantly getting matched up with bad players even though my win rate is fairly high, as well as my GSP in some modes. So if you will, please explain this to me.
This sounds right, because I just recently got to 200 matches and all of a sudden I'm being paired against people way more challenging.Yeah that's basically how it works.

Except you'll be too angry for improving on your game because other people not even letting you move.Yeah I guess you could call it that.

Random might be the right word there, still after many games played, I think the matchmaking system cares more about the location and lag (or quality of the internet connection) to decide opponents instead of skill.
But really, I've done 865 matches in 1v1 For Glory, yet I'm still matched with bad, spammy players. Like a lot of you have been saying, I do think that the matchmaking is completely random, which does suck.
You get better if you learn from your loses, but if you rage, then you don't get better, and not raging's impossible with the amount of bull**** once faces when put againist a Sheik or Zero Suit Samus.
Thats what i always tell my friends in any situation. Game or otherwise. You learn from failure, not success. If you succeeded in everything then when you finally fail you dont know how to handle it, and it will cascade into something much worse.
No, never failing would be much better, losing's the worst possible thing that can happen to a human being, there's no feeling as horrible or crushing as the feeling of losing to someone, especially on a competitive game where there's a lot at stake, even without money, especially when everyone's flaunting their 80% ranking and you've got a 26% ranking because some Bowser kept reading everything you do every single time.
High GSP opponents could just be ones who are really good at home run contest or something. Fighting AI doesn't correlate perfectly with skill against real players and there are a good few single player modes that don't even involve fighting AI. There is probably a random element to it but, even if you are matched based on GSP as Sakurai once claimed you would be, I can't see GSP being indicative of relevant skills.
I can guarantee you you need to loose games if you are in the hoppes of getting even slightly better at this game, for example after getting my arse handed to me plenty of times i got my winrate at ~20% , so what did i do?
Haha yeah I saw your posts in the player search forum. I'm sorry, but this game is obviously not for you. Everyone is going to have to lose to improve, and if that's not something you can deal with, I'd say just forget about it.
Personally I'm really having fun switching characters... and when my opponent do the same. Differents strategies means more opportunities to win or lose.. the core of this game is having fun more than to lose or win IMOI can guarantee you you need to loose games if you are in the hoppes of getting even slightly better at this game, for example after getting my arse handed to me plenty of times i got my winrate at ~20% , so what did i do?
I learned from my mistakes, i noticed i was repeating myself alot and getting pownded because of that, so i decided to change my gameplay style because of my losses, now i have ~40% winrate and im still climbing.
Just a quick tip, if you are playing to solely to win, you are doing it wrong, try to go with the mentality that you have to get better rather than win 100% and you will notice something change
How do you see others' win rates? I don't think I've noticed
You don't. I've actually found about two people in For Glory that I communicated with after.
Yeah, i wish there was a better way to communicate with people after playing them in for glory. I've come across a few really good players who i'd love to play against again. I'd much rather play those guys again, instead of playing 20+ matches in for glory before I find a half decent player than doesn't quit after losing game 1
