@papahandsoap Happens the same to me, and also in random Battle Royale, the overall matchmaking in this game is just broken, and they care 0 about it

They rather put all the noobs on your team and pit you against pred/streamers, so all the TTV sweats have content to record. They don't seem to care at all. While the game puts low level or new players on your team, it just also pit you against a fully squadded pred team.

If anyone thinks nothing is wrong with matchmaking, well, think again. I've been sharing pictures like this for a while, and it hasn't even changed for the better:

My "team":

Enemy Team (I always forget to screenshot the enemy team's banner cards at the start):

I know "smurphing" exists, but why does it think a level 32 and 51 should be on the same team as a level 500, in plat areans?

@Midnight9746 Smurfing is a consistent issue here as well as player ranks. No reason to hide player ranks unless we're all randomly queueing anyways and the ranks don't actually matter. I've had bronze on my team and I've had diamond, I only found out by finding streams or VODs.
