I'm trying to get a grasp on what is plaguing ios champions league FFA right now.
Just a couple weeks ago I was having no problems getting a match within 30 seconds to a minute tops, now after painstakingly waiting until I actually get a match, the lowest wait time I had was 7 minutes, and longest was nearly 30, Averaging around 15 minutes to find a match, meanwhile Beacon rush is either instant or like 5 seconds, it's as if everyone who played FFA just stopped one day and theres only a couple people who actually play it, so I would ask for those reading to answer the poll to give me at least somewhat of an idea if my theory is at least a little on track. Otherwise I have no idea what the problem is.
it's particularly frustrating for me as although Beacon rush is fun, FFA is by far my favorite mode, even if people were playing less often this sudden change seems odd.

That's weird, on Amazon the wait times are only about 2 minutes tops.

For me iOS has always been like this. I think I’ve played maybe 10 FFA games in over 4 years ! I can’t even get a game period.

I never liked FFA personally so I never play it. The few times I do I notice longer wait times which discourages me even more.

FFA is a great mode ruined by ridiculous wait times on iOS. I used to play a ton when it first came out, now hardly ever

I used to play a ton when it first came out, now hardly ever I think there's 2 possible solutions, 1. make the search parameters expand sooner, this would inevitability result in facing more in master's and below, but at least you would get a match. 2. Pool of ai players similar to what battle of titans does when too few players are in queue. |

I played FFA but dont bother any more. This is a system related issue/configuration IMO since it happened basically over night soon after the introduction of auto drop. Wonder if it was an anti tanking measure that went horribly wrong for more reason than one.

No. If i had skillz and meta hanger, I would play it to farm the 「dookie」 outta silver and honor points. Maybe AU too.

Too many Leeches. Unless you’re a whale, why would you bother with FFA? I’m sure it’s by design, but Leeches are ruining gameplay across the board, just like Ares did. I’m sure a lot of players are taking a break right now. Ares didn't diminish make FFA inaccessible, nothing really has, if this argument held I should still be running into max mk2 leech hangers all the time, but when I eventually get a match its usually Ares, Ao jun, and a couple of other bots, some leeches here and there, and usually the hangers aren't even fully maxed, I don't think leech really is the issue, but there are less players it appears, maybe everyone is just doing exclusively Beacon rush now for some reason. |

Some hangars are totally incompatible with ffa.
I tried it when it first came out, but it was spectre peakaboo.
Tried it again, was ares peakaboo.
Haven’t tried Ao Jun / leech peakaboo. I imagine I won’t like that either.
The only reason beacon rush is barely tolerable is mainly due to the fact that peakaboo players can get killed by the chaos.
Less chaos In 6v6
