100%, I hate matchmaking. Give me old school server selections. Some of the best times I had in PvP was in Gears of War 1, where I’d get my teeth repeatedly kicked in by the same group of people and LEARN from what they did.
“If I dodge this way instead of this way its more effective.”
“They never use this specific weapon I like, maybe it actually sucks.”
You don’t get that in matchmaking because you never see the same people again, you can’t learn from those more skilled at the game because of this. Unless I go watch youtube videos of people playing it that are better than me, I don’t get that sense of immersion. I hate watching videos of other people playing, I’d rather jump in, and study my enemy in a live environment.

That seems like an easily solvable feature that could be added. “Match me with a better team of possible.” “Match me with a worse team if possible.”
