Nope, still gonna leave. If they fixed sbmm I'm sure alot of leaver problems would be magically fixed though.

How exactly would adjusting sbmm affect the leaving issue? I dont see what you mean. I dont always love the sbmm but i recognize that its a necessary feuture in a game like this.

    They assume allowing the lowest skilled players to be matched up with the top tier players to be okay instead of having a system that at least tries to gather people of similar skill level. I'm guessing they want to rack up their K/D or have better "big plays" against lower skilled players.

      @xDarkomantis No, quite the opposite. I'm fine with having two questionable skilled teammates, but then there should NOT be 3 stacking preds/masters/diamonds/even plat teams in my lobby. Every team should then consist of two players with a malfunctioning shoot button and one who actually shoots at moving objects. If I get killed why stay looking at my teammates doing nothing? Or if my teammates insta die, leaving me to 1v15 all the 3 stackers after they land us in Fragment. What's the point? Next game, ty. The frustrations of sbmm makes me leave more than anything.
