Skillbased Matchmaking FYI
I see alot of people complaining about SBMM, saying it is not working as intended and is pairing you with extremely low level players or placing you in high lvl lobbies despite being low lvl. That's ...

@BalladalidilaI think it should be totally random. It would be impossible to pair up premades against each other without some sort of manipulation that would be unfair to one or the other party. Besides, If the only thing random lobbies helped was the solo queing player experience, then that would be a massive win.
I fail to see where losing constantly makes me wanna play more?
- @PsyhiX69 The game conditions players to chase endorphin bursts from winning matches. It's like how a drug addict's day to day life will be a grind so they can satisify their addiction and be temporarily happy. To be fair random, eomm, sbmm all would cause this psychological loop, it's just that EOMM allows the devs to manipulate when you get your high, and how frequently. If the matchmaking was random or even actually skillbased, the player could get their "hit" too frequently, be satisifed, and stop playing.
