Apex gives me people 200+ levels ahead of my level.

Whoever designed SBMM doesn't understand that shooting isn't the only thing that matters in this game. As long as there is no way to quantify skills like fast looting/movement(common sense too smh) etc., SBMM will always work poorly. They don't understand that a level 30 player is still learning the fundamentals and in no way near the skill level of an LVL 500 player even if the lower tier player has the better/same aim.
