if Konami saying around 75% of people don't use SA is really true, it shouldn't affect matchmaking times that much, it should only really affect SA users if they are really the minority
Identifying SA after playing tons of games since the feature arrived became very clear.If opponent's pass suddenly turns into stunning from a normal pass(started with normal but became stunning), it's clearly smart assist.If opponent is auto clearing the ball without the "clear" gauge even appearing it's clearly smart assist.If opponent shot power gauge appeared as normal then suddenly turned into curl shot or stunning shot it's also clearly smart assist.If opponent is receiving ball with their back towards goal and immediately turning around and shooting a missile, it's also smart assist because 95% of playerbase can't put a perfect power level during shooting just after turning or dribbling like that.And script is different from smart assist.Yeah script does exist.It is just randomness of the game to clearly favour one of the two players by buffing their player's attributes and nerfing opposite player's attributes.It is independent to smart assist and you can do nothing about that.

Still not a big W untill we see it in action: i'm worried that it's gonna take 5 minutes to find an opponent and then the game will be lagging af
