As it is, only the higher ranks are anything close to "matching with similar skill", there is no sorting at the bottom, its just a pile of * that some players get to climb out of.
I came back and bought the season pass because I believe in supporting developers that listen to their player base...
but in the end, Respawn is just like everyone else, fixed solely on the concerns of streamers/high tier players, while ignoring other parts. Apex will probably end up like TitanFall2 multiplayer, players slowly hemorrhage away as the game slowly dies because the disparity between new players, new players to the genre, and the average first-person shooter player.

I'm assuming you're referring to ranked play in particular, if so it populates each game based on the number of players available in each tier at that time,so they will end up with higher tiers if a fully bronze tier game can't be initiated as an example.
Bronze tier doesn't actually represent a players skill level currently as theres a lot of decent players that haven't really put any time into ranked yet.
Theres always going to be a heavy difference between experienced and inexperienced players on any game...not much can be done to remedy that other than actually putting some time into the game if you're new to it.

They could remove cap on points gained from kills (in bronze/silver), add a point loss to bronze (increase loss in silver/gold), start players in silverV, add a timer for dodging a match (to prevent easy demotion)
That alone would create a tier for struggling players to demote into while adding obstacles to smurfing that will at the very least decrease its prevalence.
And, you wouldnt have to wait for the ladder to "balance out"

Not sure what forum you've been on, but there are plenty of posts in reference to casual/new players and every other minuscule problems thing they can think of.
