Something that hasn't been mentioned so far (I think) is that under the new MP matching scheme, a mid-Plat player who wins a race against me (or Atom, or Bilik) earns a massive amount of points, sometimes on the order of 35-50. This happens whether or not the high-rank player quits before the finish. So, the new scheme seems to benefit lower-rank or mid-rank players more than high-rank players. It can be seen as more equitable, since it gives the majority of players a greater incentive to play, even when they're facing the rare high-rank LL player. The downside is that for a small fraction of those playing the game (ranked 1900+), it's become significantly less fun.

Previously, when I was matched against only 1-3 players within 100 rank points, I'd play 10-20 MP races in a row several times a day, until my preferred cars were all depleted. Now I'm content to play just 4-5 races a day and call it quits. There must be a better compromise.
