Rating too low

I’m getting an error saying my rating is too low to challenge a friend. My rating is 200+ points higher than his. Why can’t I play him? It’s not even a rated game.

You did say if it was a live game or a daily game. But your friends settings are probably what's stopping you.

As you can see, there's a setting that would allow friends to challenge no matter what.
