Where to find it in the menuโ€‹

Misc โ†’ Matchmaking region

The page name, the Region list and the region names are shown in English in the menu even in the Russian interface.

How to enableโ€‹

  1. Menu (Insert) โ†’ Misc โ†’ Matchmaking region โ†’ turn on the State header toggle of the page. Off by default; while it is off, the Region list is inactive.
  2. Choose a Region.
  3. Start searching for a match in the game (Ranked, Unranked or Street Brawl).

What it doesโ€‹

  • When the search starts, the script puts the selected region into the matchmaking request.
  • Works only for the Ranked, Unranked and Street Brawl modes. For other modes the region is not changed.
  • The region is applied when the search starts. If you change it in the menu while a search is already running, restart the search.
  • While State is off, the script does not touch the region: the game searches for a match the same way as without the script.
  • If State is on, exactly the selected item is used, even if it was left at the default. So with Rest of the world, the search goes to the general region, not the one the game would have chosen.

FAQโ€‹

How do I change the matchmaking region to Europe?

  1. Open the menu (Insert) โ†’ Misc โ†’ Matchmaking region.
  2. Turn on the State header toggle of the page.
  3. In the Region list, select Europe.
  4. Start a search in Ranked, Unranked or Street Brawl mode. If a search was already running, cancel it and start again.

What does the default "Rest of the world" region mean? It is the game's general region โ€” the same one the game uses if no region is set. While State is off, the choice in Region has no effect. If State is on and Rest of the world is left selected, the search goes to this general region. To search in a specific region, select it in the list.

Why are the items on this page in English? That is how they are shown in the menu, including in the Russian interface: Region and the region names, which are explained in the table above.

The region does not change. Check that the State header toggle of the page is on and restart the search: the region is applied at the moment the search starts. The feature does not work for modes other than Ranked, Unranked and Street Brawl.
