I really think the the matchmaker is rigged, this is one reason i believe that, it is so hard to win the free credit in DT because it forces players to use real cash if they want to buy <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/shop/">packs</a>.. I used to make 5 credits a day and in 2 weeks I could buy New Blood <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/shop/">packs</a> now I make 3 free credits a day... We need a regular DT room without any bans or penalties so some of us can use the cards we payed good money for and still get our free credit.. Even when u use real cash to get these badass cards u encounter bans and penalties and if u make a decent 26-29 star deck u WILL be unevenly matched with a 55 star deck... Every time it happens to me I just laugh .....]]></description><guid><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></guid><author><![CDATA[no-reply@urban-rivals.com ((((-))))]]></author><comments><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></comments></item><item><title><![CDATA[SpT_NightCrow]]></title><pubDate>Sat, 10 Nov 2012 13:20:51 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[IMHO it is not a matching system's problem..the fact is that most of players in DT nowadays use deck over the 30*...in some moments they likely reach the absolute majority of DT players. So when you play 23* it isnt surprising to face 75% of adversaries with overpowered hands. There arent any lower to match...<br />
<br />
If you like to play 25* there are <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">elo</a>, dm25* and surv <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">elo</a><br />
if you like to play 30*-40* there are DT, DM and surv<br />
if you like to play 23-28*, WHERE do you play?<br />
<br />
uh, forgot...there's training <link href="http://s.ccdn.ur-img.com/css/sprites/smileys.css?v=1318423583" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/><br />

I end up paired up with a massive 35~40* deck.<br />
<br />
I tried playing in the new Deathmatch format and reached the same conclusion (you fight the exact same player/deck over and over in the small deathmatches)<br />
<br />
Each Game Mode, (Tourney, <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=survivor">Survivor</a>, Deathmatch) needs a limited deck 25* room... either E25 or <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">ELO</a>. <br />
<br />
Please bring these formats back.]]></description><guid><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></guid><author><![CDATA[no-reply@urban-rivals.com (Lord Plague)]]></author><comments><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></comments></item><item><title><![CDATA[ghelas]]></title><pubDate>Wed, 27 Jun 2012 16:11:28 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[I think UR is trying to make strides in the right direction, but I still feel like there is a much simpler solution to all the problems...<br />
<br />
-We know that many different rooms/modes can be maintained(issues of balance aside.) We can safely assume that, because there doesn't seem to be any kind of cap on Event rooms, for example. So, consolidating rooms seems to be an effort to keep players together, thereby allowing the matchmaking system to find matches faster, ensuring that players don't run into the same opponent over and over, etc.<br />
<br />
-Shutting down any room causes resistance. Players like options, and who can blame them? <br />
<br />
-The ideal solution would keep most rooms/game modes available, while still consolidating the player population somehow.<br />
<br />
-So, I propose this: Why not have rewards that cycle on a weekly basis? Week 1 can have additional, lucrative rewards in Extended, Week 2 in Standard, Week 3 in <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">ELO</a>, etc etc. Maybe any player who performs above a certain threshold should have a chance at the rewards (as with the Cr chance in DTs.) The majority of the player base will be encouraged to play more in a specific format for much of the week in pursuit of these rewards, but people who have a strong preference for one specific mode will still have the option to keep playing it for as long as they please. It seems like both the goal of consolidating the player base and not alienating players by shutting down modes they enjoy can be achieved this way.]]></description><guid><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></guid><author><![CDATA[no-reply@urban-rivals.com (ghelas)]]></author><comments><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></comments></item><item><title><![CDATA[ZetaStar]]></title><pubDate>Wed, 27 Jun 2012 14:43:34 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[Ext25 deathmatch was the only gamemode I played...]]></description><guid><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></guid><author><![CDATA[no-reply@urban-rivals.com (ZetaStar)]]></author><comments><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=2089077&language=2]]></comments></item><item><title><![CDATA[Zoidberg1]]></title><pubDate>Fri, 15 Jun 2012 16:49:23 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[@ Ghelas <br />
