Unrealistic Matchmaking

I feel bad for new players I have a 0.62KD I’m in lobbies with diamonds, masters, and apex predators and I can’t beat them to save my life so how can new players in my lobbies learn this game if that...

@cosico Getting melted in milliseconds over and over again is a horrible experience for new players. That's where I was when I started in Season 8 and it hasn't gotten that much better, TBH. SBMM in Apex is complete & utter trash.

Getting melted in a millisecond is frustrating for everyone, I try to play with my 10 year old and it is almost impossible.  Make a new account to play with him and after three games we are stacked in with masters again.  I just feel they are doing their best to get their top tier players in lobbies and the bottom middle of the road players are just getting dumped on consistently.

    For whatever reason - matchmaking things its "fair" to give you two noob players and pit you against diamond+ players. That's not "skill based matchmaking", that's "hey, go babysit some noobs while we derank you for an unfair reason".

    Stop it.
