Matches are rigged, you can’t change my mind.
To start, I LOVE this game. This is a bit of rant, so if that’s not your thing......this isn’t what you wanna read. I have over 3500 hours in Apex. I’m level 500(1167) and sit usually around 2....

Activision patented the SBMM which modifies hitboxes size and accuracy of players.
Hi, yeah these were the videos I watched. I know Eight Thoughts did one but his channel got deleted. I think 402Thunder did one too but I can't find it. Is that real then, that is an actual patent? I guess if it's a patent then Apex wouldn't be doing exactly the same thing but could be doing something similar. Very weird and kind of spooky, manipulation on that level. Why do it? I can't get my head round it.
Found the patent,
0077] The modification of the gaming parameters is based on the skill level of each player. In embodiments, the modification of gaming parameters is executed in real time during a gaming session. In embodiments, the modification of the gaming parameters are executed on a player-by-player basis, based on their skill levels, which may be different for different players. Therefore, the online multiplayer gaming environment generates a gaming environment within which two or more players can play cooperatively as a team within the same gaming environment of the same level of the same game and tailors the experiences in that gaming environment to the specific skill level of each player
EA has what is called EOMM. But Devs said it is not implemented in Apex.
I think the patent can be found a this link

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ob6747TfiEI'm surprised that they would patent something like this and it wouldn't fall under the trade secret category.
