Can someone explain to me how sbmm works in this game in pubs? is it even there? is it working at all?
What logic decides a previous season predator with 5+kd, 20k kills, should be in the lobby with with golds and plats? and yes im talking about pubs
What are these guys doing in our lobbies? Can someone explain that to me?
How does sbmm work? with kd's? with current ranked rank? with kills? with experience (hours in the game)?
All it takes, is 1 game..
I came back today after 3 days not playing. First lobby, 3 master trails, full stack diamond team, and champion had a 4k badge and 20 badge.
So I sift through these lobbies quick, dying almost instant, cause well, it's been 3 days and I need some time to warm up. Next 2-4 lobbies are the same story.
After those games, I finally get somewhat of a decent lobby judging by champion and only a few diamond trails.
Our team proceeds and win this game with 4 kills and 1200 damage. (no bots, but decent skilled enemys)
Next game, and this is no joke, 7 master trails, and handfull of diamonds.. COMOOOOOON
I left said lobby and quit the game instantly out of frustration..
I'm so done with how this sbmm system works..

Can someone explain to me how you become a Master/Pred? I've googled it but can't find out exactly how you do this. Also how do you tell them from the drop?
They are the two highest ranks acheivable in Ranked play. Depending on whether the player has it equipped, they have a different sky dive trail than other players.
The problem with this and the explanations is that they make no sense. We are all put in lobbies we ZERO chance of winning
The Masters and the Preds are in SUPER easy lobbies for their skill set, so we are cannon fodder. When do the rest of us EVER get lobbies like that???!
For those Preds, it would be like us getting a lobby of sub lvl 10 players.
The amount of players above Gold/Plat are too few to start games reliably. This isn't the only game that has this problem right now. It might be fair but it is unreasonable to make Diamond+ players wait 30 minutes just to get a game.
Good luck lol
To put things abit in perspective:
I'm a season 0 player, and when I started I was totaly new to BR and multiplayer FPS shooters.
Season 3 was by far my best ever season, I had so much fun and won a good amount of games..
After season 5 , everything went down the *..
Back then I was a bangalore main. Right now I have 4200 kills with 198 wins on bangalore (most part pre season 5).
After season 4/5 I started playing more pathfinder. Right now I have 5300 kills and only 115 wins.
See a trend here?
my s3 win rate was over 4.3% which translates roughly in a win 1/25 games.
s4/s5 as well, over 4% winrate
Now I barely hit 1.5% which means 1/75 games is a win, whilest still improving every season (although I think i kinda hit the sealing at this point)
I do be getting more kills, but it's impossible to win a game these days!
And in all honnesty, since s7/8 I'm not playing for wins anymore. I'm scared of winning just because the stupid system puts me in to lobbies way beyond my skill level.
So I drop hot or close to teams so I can get kills early on. once I stack up a few kills and go down, I mostly just leave.
If you guys aren't bothered to fix your damn game, I'm not bothered in any way to play it as we are supposed to be.
@ShawtyShowmananother solution which I am doing recently is whenever am playing with randoms and I see 3 stack champion squad or too many pred/master trials on drop I just leave the match.
sorry randoms/sorry apex/sorry apex community but this really helped me enjoy the game more without the stress and frustration also it's a waste of time facing these guys as their way of playing the game by holding hands like little kids out of school or it's like the world championship is not a thing am willing to deal with anymore.
so if you really want to enjoy the game just stay away from these guys as this is the only solution, Respawn is not doing and not willing to do anything about it, but we can do
