Re: Apex legends, skill-based matchmaking (rant)

I am currently silver and in my most recent game I got match make with a masters and a platinum. This also happens in pubs. me who is a level 170 (but really bad) will get put with a level 400 prestige skin wraith. I don’t mean to be a baby but this has gotten out of hand. Skill-based matchmaking doesn’t even feel like it’s implemented into the Apex servers. I guarantee respawn or EA will even see this let alone do something about it but I’m sick of going against players three times my skill level and can’t imagine what it would be like for somebody just starting Apex
Kinda sounds like skill-based matchmaking is what you actually want. If you're going against people that are much higher skill level then yourself, then the lobbies are just being filled based on connection.
People always treat SBMM like it's the boogie man or something. The ONLY people that don't want it are YouTuber's and Streamers. They want the ability to connect to bot lobbies and drop some big kill streaks for their viewers.
SBMM is a good thing, and is necessary for people to have a somewhat fair experience. Ranked is SBMM, and it's by far the best mode in the game.
