Who is the "you" you're demanding answers from? These settings are voted on by a set of players called gurus. So to answer your question: because the gurus voted for it.

this error also happened with Tichu. the game only has 3 leagues (Elite / Silver / Bronze), but all Elite players at the end of S20 got relegated by 2 leagues instead of just 1. BGA please fix, its been nearly a full month since the season started!irwincs wrote: ↑08 April 2025, 17:27 League relegation rules weren't followed correctly for Agricola. Elite players from Season 20 are starting in Bronze for Season 21. I've filed a bug report for this issue: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=165354

I replied on: "Since determining the opponents is random and sometimes one is forced to play a very lower ranked player to whom if you lose you lose points but if you win you win nothing so no progress which is frustrating, can you make sure either players face other players in the same rank or at least win 1 point when defeating a lower rank player ?"Meeplelowda wrote: ↑09 April 2025, 09:32You cannot filter opponents by strength in Arena through settings. You can only set preferences for what Arena tier you get matched with relative to your current tier. https://imgur.com/a/Kvpbm5D Just because you are silver and you set it to "near my level +/- 1" does not eliminate strong opponents. An ELO 600 player can be bronze if they've never played Arena before, or haven't played for a few seasons.
