Please Turn of SBMM in Apex for this quarantine!!!! The chances from dying from Covid compared to a heart attack in playing a pubs much is pretty low!!! Ranked is for skills and pubs should be for just casual games!! Please fix this as me and my entire squad about to dip like the streamers are and apex becomes as dead as fortnite!
Solved! Go to Solution.

I do not know what the goal of SBMM is but match making since season 4 is absolut garbage and is far away from a skill-based level.. I would describe myself as a casual player, I have a fulltime job and a family, I play sometimes solo and sometimes with some friends, maybe 3 hours every other day.
When I play ranked (stuck on Platin IV since four weeks), I get team mates <Platin IV, sometimes Gold, and almost every game we get wiped by a full predator squad having 100k kills in total, at latest in the second fight. I almost never have a game where the champion squad is not at least diamond.
When I play casual it is the same! Does not matter if Duos or Trios, at latest in the second fight we get wiped out by predators.. Me and my friends are really frustrated and after some games we mostly quit, it does not make any fun at all.
Also the point system: Damage is not taken in account at all, I am the first one cracking most of the enemies in the beginning of a fight, but my other team mates down the enemies, which is fine with me, everyone has their role. But placing 11 with 2,5k damage and 1 kill sets me back? Give me a break..
Camping and extreme passive players are highly rewarded, is this how you want your game to be played? Landing, looting for 1 minute and then camp yourself in a building for the rest of the game? Is this the goal?
If I watch competitive gameplays I quit after minutes, it is plain boring, playing the game is even worse!

I think more and more players are smurfing since the sbmm came along, making any pairing system fail anyway.
Before the matching system, you had a very varied experience, sine you could encounter both pros and new players in the same match, making it quite fun while allowing you to win some and loose some, even while playing it casually.
Nowadays it's a constant battle of blood, sweat and tears. No more casual playing.

@MonhulioEven if the feature was already in the game since launch, it's just as you said, it wasn't calibrated yet during s01. There's no denying that this game was much more casual and fun before the feature got ramped up. They've introduced a ranked mode since then, the sbmm is not needed for casual play, and without it, smurfs (at least for normal games) wouldn't be an issue.
