Sbmm rant

@hbuttersmgee I see what you mean, but when it comes to pubs we aren't playing in a competition. There's really no incentive to the player for having to constantly feel like it is one.

I think what he means is that similar skill becomes a problem when you improve and get moved up constantly to more difficult lobbies so to keep that idea of similar skill opponents constant throughout the game. It defeats the purpose of improvement if you can't feel or experience it because lobbies level up as you do. I can totally see why players who put in effort and got better would get frustrated by that and I can see why below average players would want this system to stay. I don't think he's wrong though - if you are say top 20% it should at least feel like it in some way.

You are right, pub stomping is boring, but constant sweat mode in just a random lobby can actually feel worse if it doesn't let up regularly enough. There should be relief from that more often and a middle ground would be nice too.

One thing that I don't like is how 1kd is considered average and just getting 1 more kill per match, just 1, is considered very good. Like why should it be considered normal to only be able to kill a single opponent per match? It's a testament to how sweaty the game really is and I don't see a good reason why it should be that way. It seems overly excessive to me.
