But you didnt really answer my question there, i.e. HOW would you want this perfect SBMM to work then? I just feel like people are saying "SBMM IS BROKEN FIX IT!" and havent even spent a single minute to think what they want and the consequences of that design. Do you demand that you shouldn't have a single predator or master in your matches? Thats just ridiculous.
When you say that you are sick of "facing against TTV tryhards", what do you mean? Because I have 2.7 KD, always been in mid Diamond every season and etc etc and just based on dive trails MY casual matches usually have MAX 3-5 Predators, 15 diamonds and the rest without trails (even though I realize some diamonds might not have trails).
So it seems to me that causal SBMM is quite soft, i.e. a good mix of a few highly skilled and many average players, which causal should be if you ask me.
But at least in my matches, the number of the real great players, i.e. 20k 4k banners Predators etc, is quite low. its usually the Champ squad and maybe a handful more but that it... Maybe my SBMM is bugged to my favor but I just dont believe people if the claim that their casual matches are super stacked with 20 Predators.....
@BabbediboopiAlright, I'll try to describe what I currently see.
Honestly, when I queue up by myself, the current SBMM doesn't seem to be wildly broken/bad. I tend to get a mix of normal players, and sweaty TTV tryhards. About 25%-35% of the time it seems like I'm killed by sweaty TTV players. But I really don't think I'm good enough to deserve to be placed against these people in the first place.
I'm a little biased against TTV players, and in a wild pipedream I'd prefer to have all sweaty TTV players in their own lobby. But that's not realistic as skill level still varies even for them. But all the same, I still think I should be rarely seeing Predators,150+ season win people/20,000+ kills, etc..(Season 2-3 it seemed like I saw these people every single match, so I can't say SBMM isn't helping)
This is where I see the main issue. When I play with a premade, it changes even more. The friends I play with are definitely worse at the game than I am. When they queue without me, they say their games are better, so my account seems to be secretly ranked higher. So when grouped with friends, my hidden rank puts us into a different matchmaking with 50%+ "sweaty lazered aim territory."
But I think a huge reason for this frequent sweaty aim is PC Aim Assist being so OP. I can't speak for consoles.
