Sbmm broken and smurfs not banned
So hear me out on this, You can't play pubs because 90% of the games your playing against a 50k preds/masters who are just running through lobbies or 100k kills players who only play pubs Then you...

In my world the SBMM works fairly well and pubs is ok - if you end up with smurfs and crazy matches you earned it by sweating to hard yourself :D however ranked is another thing, smurfs mess up the lower segments very hard and is at the moment ruining several segments of the ranked gameplay..
I have to admit I do "smurf" myself but not in the smurfing sense, I restrict myself to p2020 only and a long range weapon I suck at to be able to play with my daughter when she is playing (and i make sure I dont sweat, pure fun and fooling around) - her lifespan together with my main I think avgs to 10-15 seconds :P so I try just keep her alive and make her day and at the same time not ruin the day for the normal players in her segment, I would perhaps not call him a smurf, more an alt to play with my daughter...
@Zkepz I don't use a Smurf ac when playing with my daughter, just take her to an out of the way spot based on dive trails, to get looted up and do a bit of running around and creeping and try to get her to a high placement while having fun. 😃

Well 70% of my sky is diamond or master and a few pred trails too, she dont have fun as a level 40 in there. Trust me im not ruining the day for anyone doing what I am doing, im even dying and missing on purpose its fun to play with your shoulders all the way down to your hips too, and she is having a blast aswell when shes got more damage and kills then me hehe. I wish I could have a bot mode on my character where I could nerf my character for max white shield and stuff like that to be able to use my main playing with her, she blindly refuse playing with my main hehe.
Edit, though if I see someone clearly not ment to be there I go full sweat, and give her the loot if I win with my all powerful p2020 though.
Yeah, there is defiantly something broken.
Played a game this evening where I had the TT and 2-4 scope. Lined a guy up at medium range. Hit him 3 times for 140, one more hit should have downed him.
He finally saw me and I was dead with 3 bursts from a prower. 66% head shots. From that kind of range. Total BS. It's really frustrating sometimes.
@Zkepz totally understand your issue. I wasn't berating you at all, just stating what I do. I play fortnite with the 2 young trees too 😃🥳
The fact the current ranked split demotion puts preds in bronze lobbies after one season (beginning/split/end) makes respawn the primary culprit in promoting noobbashing as it's built into the ranked format if you don't play a season, just for engagement.
They should be stricter with content creators smurfing as that encourages others, reduce the amount you're demoted each split and raise the entry level cap for ranked.
