Is ranked still gonna be blind pick?

Or will you be able to see who your opponent picks, in both Ranked and UT?

Would be nice if they're not blind but leaving after seeing who it is should count as a loss.

They really should have us pick before matchmaking and once you pick you're matched with someone who picked a similar tier fighter.

Oh yes. Back in the EA MMA days this wasn't the case and you could easily cherry pick opponents. I remember that when I got to a high ranking, I would have to wait up to 20 minutes before someone was willing to fight me, and I wasn't the only one. In the end we all started making alternate accounts just to get fights lol.

No way.
So you will win fight if someone quit but you will not play a game.

Blind pick in ranked is good. No changes are needed. Moreover, someone can fight like a noob at start intended to surprise you later

characer selection will take too long, if we are able to see who the opponents pick, there would be too much cherry picking.

My decision is to keep it blind but be allowed to ban 1 fighter for both players. So if you play flyweight you may want to ban DJ, most likely the other person will do the same. This cuts out chances of people picking the most OP characer of the division.

No cherry picking if you can't back out.

And then everyone picks the 2nd most OP character, which leads to them becoming the new OP characters since the same ones will be banned each time, probably
