SBMM Solved

Well let’s just say the current SBMM sucks. I think SBMM should be done by lifetime KDR ( LKDR). Allow me to share my idea. In trios they’re 3 team mates. Well which includes 3 different LKDR’s...

@LokedNLoaded This game is a BR. KD should not be the sole item used for MM.

@hayhor I disagree. Also by the looks of it the fan base is dropping out.

So it’s cool for a media core team with a LKDR of 1.10 to drop in with a lobby of predators with a LKDR of 3.0+ ?

My argument is that the game is inconsistent, either it’s MM or the lag compensation is too strong, or whatever net code is implemented. As I have made a comment on another thread about I can go in god mode or instantly killed in mili seconds while my inflicted damaged towards and enemy that does not have much effect.

  I see no drop off in players. The count this month was higher than it's ever been.

    @pandareno1999 Player count is higher because players learned Respawn has an entirely different definition of "smurfing" than anyone else.
    
    Respawn allows players to make new accounts solely to obliterate new/beginner players. Diamond players don't want to play against Diamond players. They want to obliterate noobs to feel good. Each new account is a "new player."

  @LokedNLoaded The fan base is dropping out? Just yesterday I noticed apex had 210k viewers vs fortnites 190k at the same time.
  
  I can tell you right now the MM does work for the most part. High placement plays a part. Winning does. Numbe of kills does. Squadding with a team and being a masters or pred has the largest effect. I've spent a few months now doing no fill solo and I'll say this- If you play pubs and consistently make top 5, even without much damage or kills, your lobbies will get harder and harder.

Can't agree more, I think KD based MM should be only considered at arenas
