The same matchmaking engine that matches me with fluffy and clever players???Even though I am a super Titan? I wonder where I am in that list.... Something very fishy is happening on these ladders...
Could I get an answer this time?

Thanks

I'm guessing the matchmaking engine is widening its search for opponents the longer you have been in the queue. Could it be that you started the game and had to wait quite long and then got matched with fluffy/clever?

I've had instances when I had to wait more than 24h to get a game and then it was against an opponent well below who I usually play.

This is how it works. Given that a lot top players are pretty active *and* usually are at their game limit, there's the chance you might not find someone right when you hit 'find match'. After a certain amount of time the league system will widen it's search and accept players from different leagues to give the players *something* to play instead of indefinitely sitting there.
