There has been many occasions where I come across teams that 15K+ and i challenge them (I show three strong and 2 weak fighters in my lineup) and I get nothing back, like not even a decline just a timeout. I'm getting some challenges but you never know how the shuffling works for your name to appear on someone else's list, is it worth dropping one of my stronger characters in the lineup to be 3 weak 2 strong to get more challenges at least? Granted im getting way more than before since i added the season number in my name :) Best way to tell from bots is that most bots have very small team ratings and may contain names like "A Create" or "A Fighter's name plus number" though u may find them containing rare orange fighters sometimes bt with all of base rating and mostly non-season style bonus fighters.Some are just inactive or abandoned accounts but not necessarily bots.

Best way to shuffle is to do so at regular intervals plus using a moderately high team rating(depending on high u can go) so that u'll be matched with teams of similar ratings thereby evading bot accounts.Apart from ppl's season names u can tell who's active through there display lineup cuz it should mostly contain the bonus style fighter of that season.Some ppl may pose as being active but would never reply ur challenges lol.

When i search with say 40k+ team what that means is that only ppl with similarly high ratings would see me in their challenge list,thereby  making someone with a max team rating of 20k or less almost impossible to find me except that i reduce my ratings.Things become more techical as we intentionally increase/decrease our ratings when searching or when in docile mode for a reason.Thats why you can see a 1k team rating in the midst of 40-50k teams cuz his original rating was around 40k too.

Hope u understand what m talking about
