You mention at some point platinum players will feel it. I am in platinum in ranked right now. I vowed I wouldn’t play random ranked games yet here I am. My teammates are potatoes in ranked so far( 5 games in). Except for one game, teammate and I went kill for kill to the win.(I haven’t had a game feel that good in weeks) I am not looking for noob stomping just a somewhat balanced game with a chance to win. Ranked is feeling way better atm than casual.

I can actually make a mistake miss a shot what have you and keep fighting. So for me platinum ranked games with randoms feel more balanced player base wise than casual. How is that for ironic.

On a side note and a bit off topic 1 game as above with 5 kills 2 assists and 1700 damage and 1 revive yielded me about 5000 xp. I can get that every game in the winter event. SMH.

So all your squadmembers you get randomly are much lower rank than you?

And you play much better then them?

Well if this is the case, the SBMM has not calculated their rank or your rank in a good way!

There seem to be too high differences in one squad?

I agree with this lol.. im level 13x currently and get level 33's with like 100 kills tops. Usually ill be the first one in a fight and the only one leaving it. That or my team is to scared to fight and runs away.. Yet this is plat...

Regardless of my side track there.. SBMM is a joke. I dont mind playing people better then me.. in fact I prefer it. So to me it is just an excuse for the weak.
