"A lot of people that play this game will have days when they want to come online and play in a less intense environment (pubs) and then other days when they are more focused and want to challenge themselves in ranked against people of a similar skill level."
This means one of two things: Either you are a lower-skilled player who, in a loose sbmm environment, will always get stomped. Or you are a higher-skilled player who, in a loose sbmm environment, will get more than their fair share of kills and wins in the name of a "relaxed" atmosphere. Relaxed for who? You or the level 25 new guys you're rolling over? There's no reason, in any playlist, in any game, for sbmm to be anything other than tight. If you need to relax then go to the firing range or play candy crush.

So would the old “bucket” SBMM method not be more suited to allow for more varied matches in a pub environment, rather than the newer, ‘tighter’ system that forces players of almost the exact same skill level together? Ranked should be where the tighter matchmaking takes place, even if queue times are a bit longer. Couldn’t pubs be more lenient to allow for faster queue times? If the SBMM is looser in pubs and the population of lower skilled players is higher overall, then on average they should have more matches with people of their skill level, and rarely come across the smaller percentage of high skilled players.
