Get steamrolled 10-15 games in a row isn’t that bad honestly.
I only play the top 4% of players in pubs, because SBMM actually is working and putting high ELO players together.
Nevertheless, I often go 100-150 games in a row with no wins and or low damage. It’s a product of being above average but not good enough to compete exclusively with Masters/Preds.

@Axs5626Sxa5001 I'd love to believe that I am "above average but not good enough to compete exclusively with Masters/Preds", but I just can't. No way a 0.61 lifetime KDR with 315 damage on average is in that category. If I am, I just can't see any way to break through that roadblock because I get abused & melted so often. It isn't that I die, it is that I die so quickly and so humiliatingly that really gets under my skin from time to time. It is incredibly discouraging and decidedly not fun when the Apex slot machine decides to do that to me.
- 3 years ago@HappyHourSumwur I hear you, and I’m sorry you’re dealing with that.
I typically suggest that people in your situation exclusively play ranked. You will definitely see Smurfs, but the amount of highly skilled players will be far less than in pubs.- HappyHourSumwur3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Axs5626Sxa5001 I'll think about it but I tried ranked for the first time this season and it was worse. I got to Gold IV solo queue before I just quit and went back to pubs.

Watching conversations here and on reddit, it sounds like this season, at least, is extremely rough in the lower ranks.
