Apex Legends Matchmaking!
The Apex matchmaking right now is killing the game. Every lobby is invaded by 10.000+ Kills enemys with rank predator or diamond. Everyone has the 4k badge and 20 kills.
Theres no way u can enjoy this game anymore. Besides every teammate quitting the game after being knocked once, you get "sweated" to death by these 24/7 gamers. Like every 3rd person has "TTV" in his name?!
Even playing on a new account: after level 10 im permanently matched in Predator matches and i even played with streamers like SHIV FPS or Diego with that low level account!
I know i got 2k kills too and an 1,9 KD with my main account but everyone is above my skill level in these "normal public lobbies"....
I still have fun in normal lobbys!
- NOT AT ALL
No one liked the change and if i want to compete with better players, you can play ranked.
Theres no way in casually enjoying the game anymore. If you want to play like an hour per day.
i actually love this game and it feels so good to play, but nowadays in these lobbies there is no fun anymore.
I dont know if everybody is a god nowadays? and there are no "average" players anymore?
What do you think about these issues?

So exactly how would you propose this perfect matchmaking would be designed (think in terms of queue time, think player skill distribution etc etc) ? It honestly seems to me that what most SBMM-complainers actually really want is to be among the better players in every match without having to spend time and effort to actually get better..
Or do you want to make casual SBMM as strict as ranked? Whats the point of having the two modes then? I for one would not want to have my casual games only be Preds, master and Diamonds like last seasons when I was D2.

But you didnt really answer my question there, i.e. HOW would you want this perfect SBMM to work then? I just feel like people are saying "SBMM IS BROKEN FIX IT!" and havent even spent a single minute to think what they want and the consequences of that design. Do you demand that you shouldn't have a single predator or master in your matches? Thats just ridiculous.
When you say that you are sick of "facing against TTV tryhards", what do you mean? Because I have 2.7 KD, always been in mid Diamond every season and etc etc and just based on dive trails MY casual matches usually have MAX 3-5 Predators, 15 diamonds and the rest without trails (even though I realize some diamonds might not have trails).
So it seems to me that causal SBMM is quite soft, i.e. a good mix of a few highly skilled and many average players, which causal should be if you ask me.
But at least in my matches, the number of the real great players, i.e. 20k 4k banners Predators etc, is quite low. its usually the Champ squad and maybe a handful more but that it... Maybe my SBMM is bugged to my favor but I just dont believe people if the claim that their casual matches are super stacked with 20 Predators.....
