Adjusting the pre-match minimum player count on a WARDOGS server directly dictates the balance between lobby wait times and the overall scale of the impending battle. A lower threshold allows smaller groups of combatants to dive into the action immediately, preventing lobbies from stagnating during low-traffic hours. Conversely, increasing the requirement ensures that matches commence only when enough participants are present to deliver a genuinely intense, full-scale tactical experience.

Note: The prematch minimum player count value is 20.
