Perfect Teammate Match & Finding System
I have 1500+ hours of game time. I usually go up to the Diamond level. But now I stopped playing. Because now whenever I want to play, my teammates given to me by the system are low level. While my t...

you do understand that Diamond and above players make up only about 2.5% of the player base. Good for you that means you are very good at this game and better than 97.5% of anybody you will play against or with.
I agree that the further up the ladder you go or the better you are that MM can be problematic. Would the alternative be to have Diamond only lobbies? I think not as your wait time to play a game would be frustratingly long. Could the SBMM be made better I really could not answer that question as I really do not know how it works.
Wishing you the best luck in the outlands.
You will probably have to play with lower skilled players as well there are not to many at your skill level or higher.
@Asmodeus566I know as much as you can't play with Silver or actually below platinum players at least in BR mode as soon as you hit Diamond (the only thing that makes me do it as I rather play vs Pred/Masters than with Silvers and Gold).
Also, your argument about 2.5% should not be valid if the provided stats by the official sources are correct (I have a feeling that someone is boosting their yearly results to gain profits) - 100 million of players 2.5% = 2.5 million, evenly distributed around the world's 24 timezones and Apex's 48 servers that still leaves = 2.5 mil / (24*48) = ~2000 players pers timezone per server. Go deeper into daily routines and say 1/3 plays during the day / midday evening / night and you still should get 500-600 active players = 10 full lobbies at any time any place basically. Clearly that is not the case so something be it stats or SBMM is incorrect here 🙂
Also let's not forget that Platinum players are like ~20-30% of the player base so above mentioned numbers should be so much more boosted given that Diamonds should be able to get into Plat lobbies if there is a shortage of players.
