Skill Based Matchmaking Season 18

I have been playing the game since launch and i fell in love with the game immediately. However, season 18 SBMM seems off to me. I have nothing but 3 stackers in my lobbies that have 20k plus kills. I used to be in games with average to a little above average players, but now it’s like a sweat fest and everyone is a pro at the game. Please fix SBMM.

  • Ranked is unplayable for solo players, I got rekt in 20 games in a row and just obliterated, that is -1000 points. I was expecting after 20 failed games that "SBMM" would put me in with bots or at least the people who are as bad as me. Like you said @ErBodyLuvGav 3 stacks, people with no recoil scripts, wallhackers, smurfs, cfg manipulators...I stopped using jump towers, in the last 3 games I was beamed from one, so PTSD is strong.

  • You have to lose from 200 to 400 consecutive games for the MMR to say, “let’s give you an easier lobby”.  And that easy lobby will only last from 1-2 games.

    So 20 games is not going to cut it. 

    Of course, the issue with this is:

    Players in the lower percentiles of skill can sport stats way higher than players who are legitimately better than them.

    @l_m4ch1n4_l MM is very slow to drop you down
    lobby when you get destroyed but very quick to move you up after a good game. It is completely rigged to ensure higher level players and streamers always have a sizable pool of victims to murder for content. That's been my experience anyways.
