Hey there, welcome to this post, This Fight Crab – How to Find Users & Groups for Matchmaking Guide was created to help you.
This guide will help Fight Crab users find others to play Versus Mode with.
INTRODUCTION
Fight Crab’s online matchmaking is a lot of fun. However, finding other players to play with can be frustrating and a real test of patience. The player base for Fight Crabs on Nintendo Switch and Steam is small, but it can be reached if you have the resources and coordination.
You can combine the following considerations to increase your odds of connecting with Fight Crab users, whether for “Ranked Matchmaking” or “Free Matchmaking” purposes.
PLEASE NOTE:
- This guide may be updated if necessary. Feedback + critique is welcome.
Time Zone Calculator
JST is the time zone that most of Fight Crab’s active players reside in. JST is 9-hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time / Coordinated Universal Time / UTC+09 and does NOT observe daylight savings time.
Ranked Match
- The best time to queue up for matches is between 12:00 PM (JST) and 1:00 AM. Please be aware that the server traffic may vary between days within a given week. You may need to wait with patience. [3]
Free Match
- Match queuing in console-dedicated rooms and crossplay matchrooms appears to be largely inactive. The exceptions are rooms created for non-official events, such as streams from YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Discord, etc. [3].
Users living outside GMT+09/UTC+09 time zones will need to adjust their clocks.
