I
totally
agree
with
all
the
vets
here
that
a
team
with
3
midrange
players
typically
has
better
chances
than
a
team
with
a
vet
and
two
freshly
boiled
lobsters,
primarily
because
those
lobsters
would
be
feeding
metal
to
the
enemy
team
like
crazy.

As
a
midrange
player
myself
I
find
it
most
enjoyable
when
games
are
diverse
and
have
all
sorts
of
players
in
them,
pros
and
newbies
alike.
It
gives
games
more
"color"
in
a
sense
that
you
are
motivated
and
have
the
time
to
help
your
allies,
rather
than
just
fighting
for
your
very
life.
So
I
think
setting
WHR
limits
on
rooms
is
not
wise
(
albeit
arguably
better
than
current
system)
.

In order to address this issue better I think the team balancer should work as follows:

I feel like this way it is more likely that teams will be even in terms of their realistic combat-efficiency. You could think of it like each player having a personal "opponent" to tackle.

Obviously should be possible to !forcestart the game if balancer becomes pissy about it. Or at least it can throw a warning out that resulting game may be not very fun to play.
