Never put trios up against people who solo queue

I don't know whether this is part of the awesome SBMM but putting trios up against those who play the game solo is NOT fun for either party (solo queuer who just got wiped out by a premade yet again,...

Still happening...solo queueing still puts me up against clan tagged trios.

So given the total lack of effort in matchmaking, there's only one explanation, that the game is dying and the population of players is so low that they have to match solo players up against clan tagged trios.

At this point I would urge people to think carefully about sinking any more money into Apex when they don't care about you unless you have a check mark by your name on  twitch.

Hello? Tap tap tap? HELLO CAN YOU HEAR ME????

This is still happening. I'm solo queuing and getting put against, not only three stacks, but three stacks with insane stats. No wonder the player population is dwindling when you're actively being pushed away from playing the game.

FIX THE MATCHMAKING! 99% of solo queue players would happily wait longer for fairer (and therefore more fun) games.

    @SunlessMeridian I think they are working on separating solo queuers and premades for S5.

    They probably shouldn't separate it for Ranked though, as ranked is very competitive and you basically have to get a team in the higher tiers. It's a team game, so people who put the effort in to get a team for Ranked should do well.

    @Sir_NamedI understand your point but disagree. Solo queuing ranked and being guaranteed only facing other solo queue'd players would be a much better indication of player skill. The RP ranking system ranks players individually (there's one #1 player, not a #1 squad) and effectively punishing people (and diminishing the ranked experience) who haven't got the time to find a full squad is a poor system.


    It's by the by anyway because Ranked play from D3 up is completely unbalanced and not fit for purpose.

    @SunlessMeridian True, but it is competitive play. In a team game. They have personal SR so that if you don't have a team, you still get placed with people who are approximately your skill level.
    But it is competitive play, in a team game, so premade teams will do better. Take Overwatch for example.
