Very good improvements.

Is this true for the rules modifications as well (Claw/PO)? |

My only question is how much easier/harder will it be for new teams to get matched? especially in the time frames where only 4-6 people enter the box. I'm sure more people will be trying it for a while and longer if the changes are good though.
I guess we will see. |

Hmm, not really sure about this.
My 1670 High Elves, just drew 1370 Underworld, which seems a little out of whack. |

Found 4 coaches.
- Topper vs DukeTyrion (Underworld 1370 vs 1670 High Elf) @649
- Rulah87 vs Sotomonte (Chaos Pact 1010 vs 1050 Chaos) @965
Scheduled 2 matches
What would you have done differently? |

I am just not sure about the removal of the 15% cap. I am awaiting the matches of 2000TV killer teams against 1400TV recovering teams.
Still, it's an option that is worth investigating. I just suspect it will cause as many issues as it solves. |

Awesome! I restraint myself from stating that I'd much prefer to see the scheduler changed before house rules are implemented, but even more so it feels like my mind has been read and this is a Christmas present!
Makes me want to play right now... Alas, I can't.
Edit:
The Badge Hunters can now hope to hire Puggy Bacenbreath more often, trying to get those TTM badges... |

What I think is "whack" is that YOU think this is a out of "whack" match up. |

Well, on the first hand, I feel a bit sorry for Topper having to play the match.
On the other hand, it's a no win game for me. If I win it was expected because I have the better team, but if I lose I open myself up to self-ridicule (I can be quite hard on myself). So sort of a no-win situation. |
