Will they ever fix season 18 SBMM issues?
Will we have to wait til next season or do we think super hard sweaty lobbies are now here to stay?

I'm about average and my KDR is around 1.0.
My issue with MM isn't that I have a KDR of 1.0, it is about the quality of my deaths and relative infrequency of success.
I go long stretches getting absolutely obliterated and then miraculously get an 8 kill game in a lobby that feels drastically different. I just want a more consistent experience and if that means matches are more "sweaty", I think that is fine.
Dying when I feel evenly matched and just did something dumb or got jumped by a good 3rd party I can take. Repeatedly dying to perfect aim murder bot teams with absolutely no chance makes me want to uninstall.
@HappyHourSumwur I'd prefer this too. At least then I'd get decent teammates.

I’m getting 4k 20 Bomb teammates 99/100 games. Both teammates. The wait times are between 4 and 8 minutes for a pub match, but that’s what’s happening.
And unfortunately, the outcomes are still not good because we’re fodder for the top players. This was semi-acceptable when the algorithm gave easier lobbies after losses, but that been eliminated. You don’t get easier lobbies after bad performances ( I know this because I’ve tested it; 200 intentional consecutive losses with under 50 damage and early elimination. Lobbies remain the same).
Are you not getting Masters and Preds as teammates?- @Axs5626Sxa5001 I'm not at that level so no I get people that do 40 damage when I gave 1800.
- @hayhor Yikes. So what do your lobbies look like now in:
-Solo queue
-Queue with similarly skilled friends
It seems that buckets still remain but they have increased the number of buckets and reduced/ eliminated downward mobility down the matchmaking ladder.
