Every time I play I’m in plat or diamond lobbies and I’m only bronze 4. Solo qued the other day was going to team up with teammates and couldn’t because one was plat the other was diamond. Is there a...

@EdwardDLuffy I wouldn't say MMR matches you with players of equal ability. If that were the case you would get players the same rank as you but you don't, you get players who are 2-3 ranks below you. (speaking from my experience so far)
@Sonvekk Rank and ability are not the same thing. It's not too hard to grind up to Diamond by simply hiding in the ring and stocking meds. Someone has made Predator even though they did 0 damage in every ranked game they played (although they were a sweat).
As I said it's not done overall - it's done over your last few games. So a Platinum player who finishes 11th or lower a few times in a row can easily be put up with a Bronze player who's had a few top 5 finishes on the bounce.
You can read about how it works here:
@EdwardDLuffy Yeah ability and rank are not the same but I've played this game long enough to know that I'm not getting paired with teammates of my ability going by the MMR in Apex right now.
("So a Platinum player who finishes 11th or lower a few times in a row can easily be put up with a Bronze player who's had a few top 5 finishes on the bounce." )
If I go off of what you are saying then matchmaking is either broken or calling you a liar because I finish top 5 most of my games and average 3-5 kills. So????
Again this is based on my matches and my opinion of how matchmaking is in my games, it can be different for other players.
Jeez, don't take it personally.
MMR is broken and is poor this season.
I've played in Gold this season with TMs with no aim and no game sense.
I sent you the link of how MMR works. If a Bronze player is hoarding meds and hiding in the ring they're going to finish Top 5 most games, so yes, they will be eventually matched with higher skilled players like yourself, as MMR and ranked is mainly about placement.
Chill.
@EdwardDLuffy I'm not taking it personally man, I'm just telling you how my games have been
@SonvekkHmm send us your stats please, you just claim things here without evidence.
If you finish most your games top5 with avg 3-5 kills you should have an incredible kd far above 3…
It sounds more like a low mmr player with higher rank than his actual mmr
