Serverless game solution

I have thought of a great serverless solution! (kinda) for gamesSo yes it has p2p but you never even create match making servers!Release a server mode for anyone to run then tell users to create a server using nodejs on heroku.com.so it could be the format "thisismygamename-abc.herokuapp.com" the thing after the - is the server id they chose!It would scan until it finds a heroku app that is online using the "(app name)-(server id).herokuapp.com"!The nodejs app would then proceed to auto search for other online heroku apps for that server type once launched.It would send an auto http request to the closest top and bottom server id's to make sure the free server account's wont go offline.Then the game or app client will do the auto search upon needing a matchmaking server!Please tell me if this would be a good idea for a game that has servers?
