Why are we punishing people with friends so harshly now?

I'm getting so many pred and master trails in public matches with friends it is getting a bit crazy. Yesterday there were still 30 left in the ship and I counted 10+ trails. And you know people they ...

@hayhor I get it why they implemented it, as pre-mades have way better co-ordination, reflected by your win rate. That's double of what I can achieve as a solo-queue!

I can't attest to the severity of whatever shape or form of SBMM they have as at least 80% of my 14k games is solo-queued.

@BaldWraithSimp It shouldn't matter. It is a choice we make. I played yesterday solo and won 3 times. My win rate actually went up solo queuing. I 🤣

@hayhor Eh, 10k more solo-queue games and you will lose all the brain cells you have xD

@hayhor That’s the thing... when we play together for that 1.5-2 hours we usually get between 0-3 wins. Alone I get just as much usually or more xD.

Just now I did 3 games letting my food cool off, first one JM is afk and comes back in final few secs but by that time I had already solo jumped and other guy followed me and JM after bit of looting I’m assuming D/C’d.

2nd game 5-10 min game but unfortunately wiped out due to no blame of any of us.

3rd game win, nothing really special.

What was weird tho... each of these lobbies the champion was either a diamond or pred with 20 bomb... one of them had a Bang with 80K+ kills... I screamed it out “EIGHTYTHOUSAND KILLZ?! WTPEEP!!!”

I expect such things when premade, not when I’m solo with my useless bum xD

  @Koochi-Q It has been even worse since we last played. It used to be one or two super squads with premade. Now its 5 to 10. 1 to 2 I can live with. That team on the champion screen typically hot drops and dies.
  
  The other thing tho- when I solo the average competition is much lower skilled (as are my teammates). I literally coached my team to wins and killed a lot of people. One dropped us on the red roof place. I killed 5 people with an alternator. A pillow shooting gun made me kill leader! That's how bad the other teams were. I hate being the lead in the game. I just want to have fun and let others plot everything out.

    @hayhorOn solo-Q for me it’s usually like 2-5 teams with preds/masters. Today it was like 5-10 xD. What do I get... a loba who hides in a corner after I downed 2, I get shot from behind and get downed, loba fires at downed guy’s knockdown shield while enemy is advancing on her and I ping it... instead of bracing for firing, she tries to climb up a building... she gets shot while climbing, fires back but it was already too late... now that I think about it... why didn’t I clip this!!! This was Oscar comedy gold material. She was lvl 198 btw...
    
    See! Thats how good you are. Killing ppl with alternator requires serious skill!
    
    @BaldWraithSimp, that I understand. If it’s bad from beginning it’s difficult to climb back up. I had that in one CoD. My rushing had me set at 0.8 for the longest time... managed to get to 1.13 but by that time I was at couple thousand kills so dmg was done already xD. It wasn’t even that I didn’t get kills. It was the opposite. I was usually first in kills... but also first in deaths xD. Getting like 25 kills but 30 deaths XD. Basically the enemy team had half their TDM score killing me alone xD.
