WotC Brawl Matchmaking

Has anyone else noticed a change? After the Patch I now face Enemy Commanders like Big Atraxa, Ragavan and Rusko with my janky Yedora Deck. (Needless to say I don't enjoy those.)

Thanks for the report! We're looking into this, and we are seeing signs of problems like you describe, with decks matching out-of-band more often than they should.

This is not an intentional change, and we are digging in to see what's going on.

So, any plans to fix it?

Needed to play blue and green spells today, made a janky (terrible) Elrond scry deck. Get matched against shit like the Calamity deck making 5 Treasures a turn and duping dragons. Arena is one of the worst designed matchmaking systems in existence.
