The current Apex Legends Matchmaking DESTROYS THE GAME

Apex Legends Matchmaking! The Apex matchmaking right now is killing the game. Every lobby is invaded by 10.000+ Kills enemys with rank predator or diamond. Everyone has the 4k badge and 20 kills. T...

@Nintekkdo From what I heard about changes to SBMM from Sethlyy EA is also collecting behavioral analysis and if they detect that your streaming to any service, all streamers will be put into the same lobby together in a future patch ( i don’t think its set up like this currently)

I don’t really agree with that at all because it makes content for your channels alot more challenging, but also not all streamers have the same skill level

Im one of the few 10% that actually likes SBMM but I don’t have friends so not being able to play with friends isn’t an issue for me and I saw my first predator badge in a champion squad earlier in awhile but alot of people maybe apex predators but they are not using the badge idk

@FaIIenAngeI777 To anyone in favor of SBMM, I'd love to see how you feel about it when you have to play in Public lobbies that end like this every single game.

There is no difference between Ranked and Public lobbies. It's an absolute joke

     @MajchiDaTurtle 

    Do you mean the period around Christmas/New year? Because that was the sweatiest time in the history of casual modes. Every of my games were like high diamond/Predator-ranked. I believe the clip that @dlpaulson12  posted was from exactly that period of time and that was AWFUL.

    But now a days, I really feel like the casual matchmaking is quite soft so I just dont understand what people are complaining about. It just seems to me that some Gold rank skilled players are pissed they arent the best in their lobbies... But they should be since they are only gold! Thats how I see casual game works; a big melting pot of players taken randomly from the entire skill distribution. If you want to only compete vs people around your same skill level, then play ranked.

    Also, most SBMM complainer contradicts themselves.... Just think about this for a second: many people on this forum complains that their casual games always are soooo unfairly sweaty, totally stacked with the best players in the world. But as same time, many people on this forum also complains that their two randoms always are total noobs that cant play this game...  Now add these two things together.........

      @Babbediboopi Depends on which region you in. Low traffic can easily paired you with high/low skills player. Some region is in all time low due to the decline of player.

      Another problem with this game is the lack of option for strictly solo que. No matter how good you or the random player is, the teamwork and coordination would never be as good as a group of 3 player who been playing together since day 1.

      Still.. the point is... it was normal lobby, not rank. If player want to be sweaty, they can just go rank. The problem with current normal lobby is the lack of skill distribution. Rather than meeting a wide range of player with difference in skill performances, all you ever met is skilled player.
