Is there any problem with a skill based match making?
Just my opnion, the only BR that I played were a little of Fortnite and now this game. I think it is pretty bad to be new player and be throw in a game where everybody was a build master already. And this game is a team game (at least, for now), and it is pretty bad when you get new players on your team that usually loot all game just to die for the first squad fight, just being loot bags in the end.
Now if it is not a problem a skill based MM, the problem would be how to measure skill. Think you guys from Respawn should work with pros on this and not do a * MM like the one in League of Legends. But IMO, I think it should not be based on hours played, and more on Accuracy and precision, maybe kills for match, this would also put Cheaters Vs Cheaters too.
I also think there should not be rank, taking League of Legends rank for example, like imagine Shroud, he would start at around some where on plat after the first matches, but with a skill of a Master+ player, so I think the skill system should quicking in the fast matches already and not slowly going up, so it wouldn't be problems with smurfs too.
