@E9ine_AC As much as i believe level doesnt factor into SBMM i do believe the SBMM in this game is broken in a sense. In my experience i had a friend who just started and understandably didnt perform too well, however many games she'd play, a few of them would contain pubstompers (pre made teams full of players with arguably 20k kills on their respective legends) and as a new player who doesnt perform that well its an inexcusable experience for her to have to play against these players.
Im not saying it happens every game, but it happened often enough to where she felt no desire to continue and eventually stopped trying. she was barely level 10. She didnt have enough time to make friends or get used to how anything worked. or develop a k/d or win rate that mightve placed her in those lobbies (4 kills and 1 death wouldve given her a 4.0 k/d which wouldve explained it) and if i had stepped in to help it wouldve only made it more difficult for her because i have roughly a 2.0 k/d lifetime so the game would place us in lobbies with people of similar stats to me.
I dont know if this occurs to all new players but it seems to be happening often enough to leave some players disgruntled with their experience. But i dont know where the system is failing. Im just stating that it is based on personal experience. And i think its worth noting just because your experience might be different it doesnt justify devaluing someone elses experience.
