SEASON 26 MATCHMAKING IS BROKEN

I have played over 100 rounds this season and game after game Apex makes me the chaperone. Every round I am stuck with people that are under level 20, and 2 of them each time. I am over level 600 and been playing in week 1. 

I dont mind being with new players time to time but this season takes the cake, last season i was stuck in the hardest of hardest lobbies pinned to the right side of distribution chart. That was horrible but would take that over players that have no idea how to even play. 

Every round this season has been like this. Every round it says my team is the worst team in the lobby too. I can stack 2k-3k damage and lots of kills but still end up in the same type of chaperone type lobbies. Pair some new players with a long time player! I am about done with this game and moving on if Apex does not fix this. Taking a week off and coming back, if same issue uninstalling and finding a new game. I only play one game, Apex. I dont have time to play much games so to jump on for a round here and there was nice but if i am going to have all odds against me I am done.

    It's fing insufferable. I get teammates that can't do more than 300 damage for 15 minutes while im sat at 2k and they just let them alter TP away in a 2v1 ??? Sometimes i wonder what goes through their heads and why respawn think it's ok to give me players that are playing loot simulator while I'm fighting masters & preds

    They need to add abandon penalty back to pubs so people play that again instead of playing ranked to escape the leavers.
    Can't wait until BF6 is out. They destroyed this game.

    your answer is really the issue, sacrificing its old player base to the streamers to pick up new players.  Sad! I bet when they find a wild card mode or add the wall running and then Apex 2 is born. Now the old players will come back, the same ones they just sacrificed to keep eyes on the game, keep the streams happy, keeps attention on the game.!!! Savage! 

    Bot issue too, bot lobbies but also better bots, or something IDK i can clearly tell they are bots, they will not be near each but close enough to all shoot at once, and then all shoot at the same player at the same exact time, acting like the perfect 3 stack team, then you got dummy bots that run at you with no weapon. Then you look at the team that killed you and they all have bot like names. Every other damage is from each teammate like they each got 2 off on me, and same for my teammate. Weird vibes this season, bad vibes. 

    I dont game much, i play apex because i like how it plays and its arcade like style/look. So only game i play, and i use it in a way to pump me up for work. I work from home and would jump on for lunch and smash some kills and get some wins and it be like coffee!!  I am getting way way less wins this season and it is really killing the fun. Need to find a new game that is has good mechanics and not call of duty. I like the abilities and stuff.

    Penalty back be good. People wanna hot drop die and leave! I dont mind hot dropping and work through it as a team, often times you will get revived in a game that you left. Craziness'!
