Skill Based Matchmaking to be fixed
This isn’t really a question but rather a request. And this on behalf of the Apex Playerbase. Skill Based Matchmaking is ruining Apex Legends. What is supposed to be “fair” is the absolute opposite. ...

@Flashshark1980 Hi, first of all not many people in silver bracket really plays with squads. Silver isnt try hard bracket. There is literally no skill difference between silver1 and silver 4. The problem you are encountering in ranked mode is smurf accounts and guess why guys like me are ruining your ranked games? Because of SBMM. I cant play my main account so i log into my smurf and destroy your game, i know its not fair but i cant play my main account. Its just impossible.
Sbmm Doesnt evaluate my daily fitness whatsoever. It just throws me to PRO public matches where i encounter 60k kill guys, so its just unplayable and i am not a pro. I have 1,6kd which is low for average people. The guys i get matched with have 5+ K/D i cant compete with them, i dont have that much skill for sure.
When i started playing this game as a basic noob ( i didnt play FPS games for 12 years ) some days my lobby was well noob friendly, sometimes a huge streamer kills me and i think omg that guy is insane, lets watch him a bit. I learn couple of tricks, check his stream laugh at how i was killed and move on. Sometimes i got in the same team with those guys and they gave me some tips, so i improved a lot in a short period of time. Thats only because i got to play with them, watch their moves check the stream see what i did stupid to die to him.
Now, you get thrown into full 0,5 kd players and you have nothing to learn. You jump around, you get killed, you get some kills thats it. Its gonna be like that for a big time for you. If you dont want to improve at the game (which was me for a while) i stuck with some good campaign non multiplayer games.
Another problem is for example you got really lucky, had 10+ kills somehow or won 3 games in a row... Then welcome to predators and you get matched to me as a teammate and i see you dont do anything usefull and i become toxic because even i cant handle that lobby and you with me makes me frustrated. Because i am doomed to get destroyed every single match.

@WickXI I may end up doing the same, I don’t have 2k,4k,20 kill badges but im stuck in lobbies I don’t belong in with these types of players So I might aswell make a smurf account not necessarily for killing noobs but to practice on with mouse and keyboard, because Ive always played pc with a controller but theres no way in hell to even attempt to practice mouse and keyboard in these lobbies the games unplayable as it is with a controller Im used to playing with
- @FaIIenAngeI777 Thats the best solution for now, meanwhile dont spend money just practice and if you see a smurf watch them a bit. I suggest you to watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFa9iS4anWg and the part 2. I have nothing against ppl who wants to improve, but i become really toxic to people like Flash. So if you have any q s about the game or if you seek more decent guides, send me a pm 😉
