SBMM is really great

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.
