MMR Balanced #3

Open Pluriscient opened 4 years ago

In a bit of a reverse order I'll include an issue for the PR #2.


Currently, the !b balanced games do not actually balance the teams well, due to players not playing enough to actually balance properly, Psyanic posed the idea of balancing according to ingame MMR. Would be a voting command !mb which uses the ingame MMR (somehow looked up from some source) to balance the teams.

It's a nice idea, but since there is no public RL API the only other option is scraping off of RLTracker (Done this before but it's not a great solution). Also, using mmr as a balancer is not necessarily the best way to do this. Overall this would require a big change in how the overall site works as we would need everyones steam/psn/xbox etc. I don't think it's worth doing right now!
