Not sure how system works for lower skill level players...maybe game just can't compensate enough?
Plus for me it is hard to understand lower skill than Gold (not bragging just saying) - I came into the game and instantly went Plat...Gold and below for me always has been something like:
- Gold = have at least some sort of skill usually some aim but close to 0 gamesense / willingness to follow what is going on rather just point and shoot
- Silver and below = they just all around bad, like to an extent where I can wiff badly and still kill them moments later / do 1v3 even
As said in some of the other discussions - in pubs I pretty much always am on the right side of the meter, almost never even past midpoint I guess just because I play the game the right way, don't drop fragment with 10 teams, have some level of skill so game meter at least does not put me / I can compensate for my teammates so that our squad always is on the top end.
Seeing posts like this or alike I would assume that at some point either game puts such players with players like me yet that still make 0 guarantees that they will not be dunked on e.g. they die, I clutch the same fight = my experience and theirs are totally different from the same game and same lobby.
But these are all just assumptions and my experience.
