Horrible idea , sbmm in a fps is always a terrible idea since the anti cheat never work.

we should just have the good old matchmaking where everyone face everyone.

Wait. So the op says how poorly Apex matchmaking works and instead of tightening up parameters or adjusting the criteria for judging skill, we just decide to do away with it all together? Yeah, that'll fix all his problems.

like i said sbmm never ever worked in fps since anti cheat doesn't work therefore it shouldn't exist at all.

  Some people still think SBMM exists, well I'm pretty sure it doesn't. Simply because my first ranked match of the day, I was given only one random, and was put into a match where someone was blatantly wall hacking and aimbotting. A lot of the players were plat, and I'm still in silver.
  
  Edited: My next match, I got a bot Lifeline and a level 200 something Fuse that played like they never played a game before in their life.
  
  How I know the Lifeline was a bot? Their movement, looting, and shooting skills. They were walking everywhere, barely looting, not healing, and they were aiming at walls while shooting, (which were walls that no one was behind). The enemy teams were a bunch of diamond players.
  
  The Fuse on the other hand was running everywhere, not holstering their weapon, and pushing too far into fights. They also didn't heal when they got hurt or use any of the pings.
  
  So, in ranked we're suppose to play as a solo? At least this is what it feels like.
