SBMM is really great

SBMM pairs me with players who level 200 and I'm only level 89. like wtf I  don't want to get carried I want to improve!

from what I can tell there are 4 levels of SBMM. A, B, C, and D and I think there should only be A and B. A for the sweaty players who are always grinding and their grinding paid off. and B for all of the casual players like me who want to enjoy the game.

I don't necessarily want to carried and I don't necessarily want to improve. I mean if it happens, great, but I'm just generally here to try and have some fun.

But, getting so hard carried that you might as well just sit in a building and play on your phone, or getting so hard stomp that you can't even pick up a weapon or get a shot in, before being blown to Kingdom come, isn't exactly what I would call "fun".

I personally like the concept of SBMM in pubs, but it's honestly a failed mechanism. I've rarely been put into matches where I felt that my teammates/opponents were of a similar skill. Like I would be matched with level 20 teammates (not smurfs) against Predator opponents, or I would have Predator teammates who hardcore carry me throughout a match.

My friend, trust me... It doesn't matter if a players is level 500 or level 1,000. If I can win a game with only ONE teammate who's level 35 and follows orders, I believe you can do it too. Meanwhile there are max level players who will make some "strategic moves" that involve some not-so-great tactics.

I had a max level Caustic refuse to place traps at a chokepoint on World's Edge- you know? Like, those really narrow tunnels! The last team was going to be forced to go through it- (as they decided it was a good idea to fight so far outside the ring). Even better, the ring ended halfway into the tunnel- so we might not have even had to fire our weapons if we planned ahead!

But that's just how it goes... 

I once had TWO teammates- both under level 100. We were up against the Champion squad and some other squad. We waited patiently for the right time to strike, and won. Collectively- putting all our damage together... we dealt less then 200 damage. 

Sometimes your team has to play to their strengths, and sometimes your teammates don't want to cooperate. I've had to take dives just for the sake of pleasing my teammates sometimes- sometimes we'll win the engagement(s) and I'll be surprised! Other times, I'll abandon their reckless abandonment and end up winning solo.
