    I thought I'd add a little noise to the discussion on event matchmaking. Does anyone find anything wrong with nightmare league players being matched against challenger league? Personally, I'm warrior 1, I have T3-T4 ships with T3-T4 rare weapons that I'm slowly upgrading (and I have a T3 epic big torp, thanks RNG!). Honestly, I don't mind having nightmare players on MY team to beat up on the warrior unfriends, but 80% of the time it seems, it's the other way around. In my latest event, I was teamed with 1 ace, 2 warrior players, and 1 challenger. The other team had 3 NML players, 1 ace, and 1 warrior. That's the way the game is - and I don't think it should be that way. Maybe today is an anomaly, maybe next week I won't be paired against so many NML players, but ask any sports team - they don't play to lose, and high school players don't get matched against the pros, because well, they would lose - every time!

    They need to take league into consideration. If 2 nightmare players are unfriends then 2 nightmare players should be friends

    This same thing has been happening to me. I'm in Warrior 1 (about to go into Master 3) and I'm seeing a bunch of Nightmare League players.
    I know that events are supposed to be separate from Infamy, but I think Infamy does need to be taken into account just a little. Like you shouldn't get matched with/against people more than 1000 Infamy above or below you.

    I voted No, but on the other hand I'm not sure noob players should get the same rewards as NML players in these events anyhow.... so extra losses are one way to slow down progression. I'm struggling with the idea that a L10 player can farm all these Epic and Legendary parts, pieces, and perks just as fast as any NML player.

    Ya know, legendary weapons are becoming common, and it's rare to see a common weapon on a ship. Maybe they need to rename the categories??

    Try fighting J U D G M E N T... Wait, don't. You'll keep the mods busy for a WEEK with all that salt.

    Nah, I cool off quickly. Besides, whatever happens in the battle, stays in the battle ( mostly)
