140 game losing streak
My lobbies are still 70% Masters contrails, 20% Preds, and about 10% no contrails. I’m still genuinely shocked you people think this is ok.

You think I think the matchmaking is setting me up for a loss?
I don’t actually.
What I believe in, is that the experience of players who are average or above average matter. As it stands right now, there are players who are silver-level (regarding skill) who win at the same rate or more than master level players.
I’m just sour that I can LITERALLY go 140 games of playing the best console players in the world And STILL be thrown into the same PUBLIC lobbies with them. LOL— shouldn’t the SBMM derank me into easier lobbies?
@Axs5626Sxa5001 No, it's setting you up for a (in theory) fair fight. I'd say you probably perform better than the lower perfoming Master rank/lowest performing Predator rank players, and therefore get tossed into matches with said players.
@EryxApex
You call it fair— I call it miserable.
I think the common misconception is that high skilled players want to run through lobbies and stomp. I assure you I don’t want that.
I want variance and I want choice. I don’t want every match to be as sweaty as possible— I want my ranked games to play like this. If I am a master-level player, I want to be performing better (overall, regarding win and kill ratios in ranked AND pubs) than players who are gold level regarding skill. As it stands right now, my buddy who can’t break into plat has a higher KD and win loss ratio than I do. He enjoys his pubs and I lose the high majority of mine. He is playing regular people and I am constantly playing iTemp or iStayGoated or SoarKobi—- I am clearly not better than these players but I am always in their lobby.
What’s worse? A lower skilled player occasionally running into these guys? Or me ALWAYS running into these guys?
And trust me, I have done plenty of research on the SBMM algorithm across various accounts. Players are typically dropped into lower lobbies after 40 losses. Something has changed over the last month regarding the algorithms aggressiveness and it’s hurting players who are above average.
But screw us right? We’re the minority so who cares. Matchmaking should be prioritized around maximizing The lower skilled players’ experience and making the most amount of money possible.- @Axs5626Sxa5001 well...
How are you losing?
On drop with 0 kills and barely any damage?
Final ring with 5+kills and nearly 1k+ damage?
If you're consistently performing well then you're not gonna be dropped. @Axs5626Sxa5001Ummm if your losing games its not the games fault but the users fault. You dont have to be a god to win. In fact about 10-15 of my wins was by the ring only...... I didnt touch a soul the ring did and boom a win.
There really is no excuse that can be used of why you have lost 140 matches in a row. That is skill level not game error. You are not at the skill to win apparently or you would have wins and not 140 games of no wins.
Even playing the circle in pubs can get wins. So the excuses you give are not logical nor fact. Ive seen even brand new players win a pred lobby and you can tell they was new because of how they moved and reacted. I spectate i like to watch. If these new players being in my lobby of series 3 pred and level 500 and win a game. You should have zero excuses.Also im not remotely sure how you can even have 70% of your lobby master or what not. I play up to 15 hours a day i watch trails. I see maybe 6-10 notable trails in each game. I have never once seen 70% of my lobby have a ranked trail. Would be fun but never seen it myself in over 12k games played. Even in high rank matches you dont even see these many master or pred trails. So i think you over stepped your meaning on the % of trails you see personally.
