SBMM + solo queuing = misery
I'm not going to indulge in the typical hyperbole, just going to try to stick to facts. I'm low diamond-tier; ~4k matches played, ~8k kills across all classes. In Season 3, prior to SBMM fcuking ev...

@TheJumpingJawa completely agree, have stopped playing apex because to be frank, the game has actually gotten worse.
they removed the matchmaking system from the duo's update so im still matched with sub level 100 noobs and have to go up against 10k kill wraiths and pathy players which is totally hopeless in soloQ, this ruined my motivation to play the game solo completely.
next up is the horrible hero balance, im still waiting for the major cautic/crypto/mirage buffs and major wraith/pathy/wattson nerfs
then they nerfed snipers into the ground, making them have a special ammo and purging almost all of the energy weapons. the new sniper is obviously a joke. then they actually buffed the R99 even though R99/wingman/PK are the top 3 weapons.
either the devs dont listen to anyone and are playing a completely different game from us, or there's a massive part of the update missing.
sometimes i wonder what theyre thinking, do they never look at statistics? do they not listen to feedback? are they too scared to propperly balance the game since launch? respawn is probably the only game dev that i have played games from that do barely any good balance changes.
sure i have to give them credit, the gibraltar buff was amazing, the soiree crypto buff was really good, i was really excited to see what they were going to do in season 4.
-caustic gas now causes aimpunch per tick, 10dmg per tick, no longer slows allies and traps can be thrown and build up more rappidlly
-wraith gets +25% damage taken passive
-pathfinders abilities have 50% reduced range
-mirage has many extra abilities and is completely reworked
-snipers get bigger damage buffs, or deal extra shield damage in order to give them the edge in trading and an actual purpose instead of being 3rd party bully weapons that actually are a total joke in fair firefights
-R99 does 50% damage beyond 30m range
-wingman damage reduced to 35
but we got everything we didn't ask for
