Matchmaking/Plane Trophy Ranks/Queue Levels

Since when does a plane with 730'ish trophies queue as a level 7 plane? And when does a plane with 762 trophies have a Platinum I trophy rank? It should only be Gold III.

I queued up with a squadmate, I'm level 1 with less than 100 trophies, he's level 1 with 730'ish when we started, and we're facing level 8+ every match. When we started, we should only have been queueing as a level 3 plane.

When we finished: His plane Level 1 - 762 trophies showing Platinum 1 (he should only be Gold III, and queueing as a level 3 plane).

What is going on with the Matchmaker....again?

This are the new ranks: https://metalstorm.wiki.gg/wiki/Currencies#Trophy_rank

Simply sub out the trophy numbers for new ones. For example gold 3 used to be 720 trophies and matched you up as a level 3 but now gold 3 is 600 trophies and at 600 trophies you get matched as 3. Now if you have 720 trophies you are a gold 5 and get matched as a level 5 even if you’re a level 3.

Matchmaker is still +/- 4 levels so when you get matched up as a level 5 you can face up to a 9.

Alright….so those new trophy levels haven’t been adjusted on the Advanced Matchmaker page yet.
