@swift07I think the issue is with the type of game, i.e. BR, rather than pubs vs ranked.
Considering issues such as bad hit reg, no step sounds, cheaters, it seems quite plausible that being eliminated would be the norm. In a way, expect to be eliminated way more often then winning.
An interesting question is, how do pros do when they defeat all odds and also the cheaters match after match?
Are they in preferential lobbies where hit reg are better, there are less cheaters, sound works better?
Or, what exactly is going on, perhaps are they cheating themselves too?
It is not unreasonable to also take into account the existence of outliers --pro players are way better than the most.
Finally, if Apex makes your experience miserable, why playing it?
Usually it boils down to some excuses such as, but movements... but mechanics.... etc.
APEX is not the only game with good movements and mechanics.
What I believe does not work is trying to force one's way through it. This approach, the brute force approach, might work for single player games, but not with a PVP competitive game where you fight other sentient beings.
Call players bots or not, even a bot can give you a greater challenge than an AI...
Just my opinions.
