How’s the matchmaking recently?

People are reporting that they’re having more balanced matches today. This comes after Sammy Duc said that they’re making MM changes in December. So did you notice any difference today?

    Not sure when these changes are going to reflect on all servers, but as of now, i’m still the big brother babysitting two ball in chains.

    This should never happen, you think this Silver player can keep up with masters in Plat 1, no, no he can’t.

    @Cheese9ManThe number of kills at the macro level should be close to the number of deaths. Killing yourself in ranked would be the difference. But the graph doesn't mean the total necessarily goes up.

    5 no kill games followed by a 6 kill game gets you 1 kill per match average. A 2 kill game every other game does, too. They feel VERY different to me, especially of you die in the first case immediately with no chance.  How I get killed really matters to me in Apex.  Getting steamrolled repeatedly is not fun.  Fighting when I feel like I have a chance is a fun challenge. 

    What I hope it means is that the SBMM is reaching more quickly to zero kill streaks. Now I can go 10 matches with maybe 2 or 3 kills total and MM doesn't feel any different.


    PS-Solo queue feels different but premade matchmaking is exactly the same. Low level premades are still getting repeatedly  put up against Diamond/Masters 3 stacks.

    Think it's still too little too late. I am not the only player I know that recently uninstalled and walked away.
