1 Unless I'm victim of confirmation bias, it seems balancing of 2v1 teams always result in highest-ELO player being alone. Same kind of result for 2v3 and more... best player getting 1 teammate less and 2 coms, allowing rushes. 1 Unless I'm victim of confirmation bias, it seems balancing of 2v1 teams always result in highest-ELO player being alone.

3 I think this is generally unfair... cases like 1400 + 1650 vs 1850 (getting 2 coms) feels wrong. Its not better in 4v3 (just an example), where highest ELO player ends up in smallest team and gets a bigger share (1/3) than best player of larger team (1/4) and twice as much starting resources/com power. 3 I think this is generally unfair... cases like 1400 + 1650 vs 1850 (getting 2 coms) feels wrong.

5 And this is even more obvious: 5 And this is even more obvious:
6 * Springie1 3 players balanced respecting clans to 2 teams (ratings 2=1841:1=1308) 6 * Springie1 3 players balanced respecting clans to 2 teams (ratings 2=1841:1=1308)
7 Where 1841 is 1 player and 1308 is 2 players average. I'm sure it would be more fair to put the 1200-ish player with the 1800+ so the 1800+ has to share resources. Alternatively, not giving 2 coms to the "best" player when the ELO difference is so large wouldn't be unfair. . . 7 Where 1841 is 1 player and 1308 is 2 players average.

Or getting 2 coms but only 1 free factory. . . so brawler/bd rush becomes a less obvious/successful choice for the lone player.
