BGs mmr

Karmanorway

Just curious about the mmr system.
Sometimes i get into a BGs fast, but usually against or with the same players like the last 20 matches.

However when i can wait for like half an hour for a match, its me and some fresh meat against more experienced players OR me and 1 more vs 8 other experienced players.

So my question is, is how fast u get into match + If u get full group with experienced players dependent on If those same high mmr players i usually fight are online playing BGs at the same time as me? And If thats the case, does the system deny me to play BGs against or with less experienced players, leaving me to be in queue for hours?

First, it is an assumption MMR is the cause of any of this. It could very well be the number of players queueing for BGs, especially when dealing with a wait.

Could be, but unlikely.
My friend who hasn't played in 2+ years recently got back, and I asked him his average BG queue time and he said 3-5 minutes. I play fairly regularly, and it's rare that I get a match before 12 minutes, even in prime time on PC NA. I also remember queue times being pretty quick, when I first started playing.

This would be helpful information if it related to waiting times when queuing at the same time.
