If I'm right, users are grouped according to deck power first and then ranked among those subsets based on current rank/points. For instance, my deck power is currently 14.2 K, which would probably land me in a pretty high group, but I'm not spending every waking moment playing the game, so my rank fluctuates between 600 and 900. The highest bosses I scan are L6 Rumbles, but I get help requests for L6 Megatrons. My guess is that, in comparison with other people in the same deck power class as me, I'm not as fervent and high-ranked a player, so I scan weaker bosses. Take from that what you will. Every time I break into the 600s, I start to scan L6 bosses, when I fall into the 800s, I scan crap like L5 and L4 Megatron.

If it helps you at all in your theorizing/calculating, I have only a 7900 deck, am in the low 6k ranks, the highest thing I scan is so low I don't even bother anymore (L1 Starscream maybe?) and I am swimming in help requests for all four L6s. Oddly I still get occasional L1s too, which is a pain. I'm looking at bounties of up to 55,600 and some stupid 2100 is clogging up a slot. What a waste! I have been playing nonstop today. So I'm a lower-mid-powered deck, who has never even come close to sniffing the underside of 5k rank, but who is constantly active and is now getting mostly L6 help requests, with random lower stuff mixed in
