Pubs: 214 losses, 0 wins
How are you guys doing with the new matchmaking? I can’t seem to beat the top 1%, so my experience this season has been significantly disenchanting. My pubs went from 90% (real) Masters/Preds to 99%...

You think you are pro level player and hot dropping and try to send the lobby and leave the game after getting knocked. Bad news for you if you are not already good enough to do that after 1000 hours you will never get that good it has nothing to do with matchmaking. Just try to play like an average player and you will get wins. Never think that those streamers you watch are the 1%, they are like 0.01%. Not everyone has the skill to do that.
You just want a lobby full of lower skilled players than you so you can feel the illusion that you are good at the game.
I don't think that's the case here. The OP is extremely good at the game. They're just at the middle of the top of the top.
I'm in a similar situation but a very different bucket. I am too good for the lower bucket and not good enough for the next one up.
This season I have been having fun, though (so far) because even though I'm never as good as the winning team (especially since I only queue solo), I am as good as many of the other players in the lobby. So I die, but I also get a few kills, which makes me enjoy the match far more than in the past. I am MVP many times, too, even though I never win, so that's good, I guess (I think that mostly comes from hidden "points" I get for pinging enemies, as if that makes me skilled.)
Well, you will hit a wall when you can't hot drop and win games after a certain point unless you become so good there is no one in the lobby that can stop you. You can't ask for 57 lesser skilled opponents so you can farm them like they are NPC.
I can understand if someone with 0.5 k/d complain about SBMM.
I can understand if you get 3 stack strong teams while your teammates are bad.
But I can't understand asking for lesser skilled opponents.
Also, being good at the game is a little relative. In my experience no one without multiple pred badges can be considered extremely good at the game. Even you have 5 k/d it does not mean anything if it is on pubs.
