Matchmaking is BROKEN

Question

So I've come to a point were, if I want to have an enjoyable experience playing APEX, I'll HAVE to create a smurf account.

Why?.... Because EVERY game I play in pubs I am going against DIAMOND & MASTERS players....

The highest rank I've EVER achieved is SILVER, so..... WTF

Almost every game I play I'm eliminated before Round 1 has even closed.

Why are Day 1 players like me being punished, just because I've been playing from day 1 DOES NOT mean my skill lvl has Improved to match a player that is DIAMOND or Masters lvl.

Any other casual players like me experiencing this?

@SILVERisSORRYDon't know, played zero games this season, but if it's the same as every other season, then I have lots of fun Diamond+ players in my lobby, just never my teammates... if I see an obvious 3-stack, with master/pred, 20 kill badges, etc., as champs, I'm just leaving right there at the champ screen. As I've said before, don't mind playing these players, but I must insist that if Respawn expects me to fight a barrage of Sherman Tanks, I'm gonna need something other than two super soakers to fight them with.

You know, a champ squad like this:

while your team is this:

@SILVERisSORRY Sadly thats just the game these days. I stick it out, still have fun when the SBMM gets it right some times, but that is rare.
