I have no idea if the new sbmm system is in place or not, but if it is, then it's not working on consoles on the Sydney servers, i returned after a few seasons off, i do well in 2 games, the other last few games i am loosing right off the bat, then i see why, nearly every single player has been diamonds, masters or even Preds, even got killed by 4k dmg badges and 20 bombs, most of them have over 10k kills each. The team i get given are basically new with only a hundred or so kills or less.
@KyldenarI don't know where I fit in. I'm not a day-1 player, I'm not a pro streamer, I know I'll never be as good as Shiv or Hal. And I'm obviously not a 4 or 5. 🤔 Guess I'm most close to number 1 though.
- @CCbathwater Oh, I had clearly started as a Type 4, morphed into a Type 5 trying to keep playing with my kid, then we both finally gave up because it's just demoralizing constantly being fed to Types 1 and 2.
If you been around a long time, you are likely a Type 1, or a higher skilled type 5 (you do come and go, usually with LTMs you like). - @Kyldenar Not as much "come and go as I like", more like being forced away, between sbmm, reveal meta, and hot-drop griefers, BR mode is just unplayable.
