@stevencloser According to statista.com, 2.82% of NA player base was diamond or better. To be honest, I cant find if these are Riots official numbers and I dont know how trustworthy statista.
And maybe isnt LoL´s MMR distribution even comparable to games like Apex and Overwatch in the first place.
Anyways, I put my faith in the guys at Respawn to figure these things out. Im just saying that I think its generally a bad idea to divide the match queue if its possible to avoid it. We see this problem in PUBG right now where the less populated servers has problem to even find enough players, which force players onto high ping servers in other regions, and even in the big regions like NA and EU, it can take forever to find a match on the least popular maps, this with no (as far as I know) mmr matchmaking.
I understand why people would want mmr based matchmaking in Apex, but I wonder how many minutes of extra waiting between matches they would be willing to pay for this. I think one thing that makes Apex less frustrating compared to PUBG is how fast you can be in another game if your squad got eliminated.

I never played pubg but i watch streams of the top players. Who must have the lowest amount of people in their matchmaker pool compared to the avg player, and they only have to wait a couple minutes.
When you guys say long and forever wait times. we only talking a couple minutes. 5mins max. not even. And thats for the top players in a game of millions. How impatient can you be? You must be the same people that just drop hot every single match and charge the enemy with nothing cause they don't have the patience to gear up first lol.
From what I've read pubg started to lose players due to lots of bugs that never got fixed.
