Why is skill based matchmaking nonexistent?
MUT makes it so that the easiest way to get coins is to go in head to head pubs, but why? I mean having less than an 80 overall team and going against someone who has objectively more skill and no wa...

I’m confused. My matches have been ridiculously more sweaty since the crossplay update. I’m talking about over 75% of the dive trails being Red or Purple. You definitely have the random premade Pred team that gets lumped into a low level lobby, but I can guarantee you that the bulk of the high skilled players are getting dropped into the same lobbies with each other.
Casual/average players should be happy, as the matchmaking is definitely keeping them safer than they could be had the lobbies been populated randomly.
In fact, there are many casual/average players that are winning and performing better than high skilled players, because those top tier lobbies are only being won by the best teams in the world. There are a bunch of Masters-level players with low win rates and KD’s simply because the public matches are so grueling. The game is actually punishing this group of people because they previously showed a specific level of skill. It’s actually pretty disheartening because you would think that in ANY activity, improvement = better performance overall— but this just isn’t the case due to SBMM.
But this is the strategy that makes EA money. It isn’t about what’s fair, it’s about keeping lower-level skilled players happy and opening their wallets.
