  When we partner up in ALT Game , at present we see average and connection color. I think  this is not enough.

  What we want is balanced team,

  If a player using starter ball and inferior club and with avg 60 is actually average 68. 

  Because those cumulative avg is not useful indicator of current form.

  i  want to see small icons of their clubs and ball below each name so we can pick balanced team.

  Thanks.

  wouldn't it be nice to be able to click the name while in the game lobby though?  that'd be dandy.  ya know....the same stuff ya see when you click their name during a game?  clubs, basic stats, and a full profile button ;)

  Alex...maybe you outta get to work on a speech command computer -

  Does win or lose really matter though in alt/shot? It's just a bit of fun to me.

  Game is fun if the team is even. Its not about winning or losing.  One team winning 5up is not fun.

  And what difference does it make? Unless you are the game host you could see which clubs which balls and anything else that might affect the round and it wouldn't matter at all. Why? Doesn't the game host get to choose his partner and you have to take what is left. So  he will most likely chose a partner who he feels will give him the best chance to win. Right or wrong?

  When in position to chose, I always select the worst of the three...it seems right to do so for me.

  As a host, I try to balance the teams, quickly looking at the averages.  Assuming all Legends and I have 61(me), 67, 63, 68 then I'd choose the 68 as my partner.

  A close match is much more enjoyable than a blowout win.

  I can see Alex' point in wanting to see the equipment. The way it is today, the host might pick a partner using a starter ball, embrace the challenge is what I do.
