(Character Choice Filters in Searches)

[SorceressSeren]

So about 15 minutes ago I was playing SC, getting nothing but Algol's, Nightmares and Yoshi's online and the very obvious happening in those battles, and a wonderous idea came to mind:
CHARACTER FILTER!
I would carry Project Soul's babies for a character filter, and it would be very easy and fair. Basically it would work like the quick matches where you choose your character, and THEN go in to queue. If you think about it, it would reduce the amount of spammers/cheap players (which usually play a select group of characters), you wouldn't have to wait for people to pick a character for the full thirty seconds, and the stage could be the only thing you'd have to select when finding someone.
Mind you, I figured this could be for Ranked, since it's already a little stricter, this could keep people from loosing ranks because they have to deal with spammy Nightmare's and Algol's.

This is my idea, I think it would work, feel free to disagree with me but I'm sick of dealing with bubbles every time I go online.

1) Did you post your thread, and then add content to it later ? It seems like you weren't even sure what the topic is about. Don't create meaningless topic titles.

2) I'll entertain your thought: What is the point of ranked if you choose to not play against certain characters ? SorcDante007 is the 3rd best player in the world, except if nightmare and algol and yoshi are not banned. See how silly that sounds ?

3) I honestly would love a pre-select for my own character, as I end up playing patroklus way too often due to drifting off during the select timer.

4) This thread won't last too long as it's a shallow question

Yeah, I don't think it's a good idea. Spammers can use any character really, and if they're really just spamming, they should be easy to beat. If they do win, you'll learn how to deal with that gimmick next time. Also, if you filter out certain characters because some people spam with him/her, you will miss out on other people who are genuinely good with the character.
