Another sbmm thread. It truly sucks the soul out of online games. Its literally equivalent to participation trophies. Something we also should stop doing to kids. Trophies are garbage pieces of plastic for the most part..(unless its a grammy or something). But they should be given to winners..as people who are SKILLED and GOOD should be considered winners. Not just here congratulations because you showed up. All that does is teach laziness. No preparation or outside hard work..just show up.

The truth is as people who play pvp games there are two types of people. Ones who enjoy the game by getting better and more skillful and others that just wanna play and have fun. Why does sbmm exist? Because the people who just want to have fun want to "not play try hards. Now the point is sbmm does none of this why masking itself as it does. The noobs play noobs and never get better and the good players only play really good players and everytime they log in have to sit in a pool of sweat just to break even. Its a demonic toxic system.

Games should base your skill and "rank" off how well you perform as opposed to the average player. Not the average gamer but the average player of that specific games. Some games have hardcore communities for years and everyone is really good so the average is high...while new games are really low.

Because if you are good at something..you should be rewarded by higher stats and better quality play. Atleast for you..if thats what you are looking for.

So if you are the player who wants to get better daily, dont you want to play people that are good too? and not just people of the same "skill" aka sbmm

Or you are the player who likes to just play....do you want to be catered to only play horrible people? Is that fun to you too? Like if you decide to mess around and play worse,, you will play worse opponents.

What happened to the good old RANDOM lobbies. The key to matchmaking having soul. The noobs outnumber good players 20 to 1 anyway so theres always a chance with random lobbies most players will face someone at their skill or below. The good players will defo have better stats but there should be some balancing to the game so said player cannot win everytime maybe.

Random lobbies were great. Noobs can watch pros snipe people and be amazed or a bunch of noobs can have a blast or maybe two really good teams finally meet there match. With the fact 70% of playerbase is below a decent rank usually, it is totally acceptable for random lobbies. They will balance the game and even noobs will have a chance to win because the odds of good players being in every match is LOW.

The idea that sbmm in place so that "pros dont stomp noobs", believe it or not you can play 50 games and not run into people that wildly outside the skill level. Secondly instead of sbmm why not just break it up into three chunks. Top 33 mid 33 and bottom 33. Three ranks to stop pros from wrecking everyone and yet only 3 so that way its fun and random!

Last thing to say is as someone who is usually a really good player..it gets old having the same k/d and w/l as someone 10x below my skill level. Theres nothing fun about being really good at a game just to be fed someone as good as me every single time and die for every kill. There is zero reward for being good at a game then. Because someone who is way less skilled has the same exact experience if not better because when youre not that good theres MUCH more room for error. Im at the point now where on fortnite if I miss a shot ill lose every fight.

I play pvp to relax and be slightly better than most people. Thats what I enjoy. I shouldnt have to sweat every single death. Or be forced to die as much as kill.

Just like old times anyway...even when being better I would constantly get challenged by people. So being random anyway most noobs can benefit from various skilled teammates.

If you cant agree and you think I just want to stomp noobs you dont even know how random lobbies worked pre 2014. They were fun amazing and at most good players would have 1.5-2k/d which really isnt that bad. Because more noobs would take the deaths there k/d was .9-1.2 usually which is still really enjoyable for noobs.

If people are okay with being bad then take more deaths than good players. Whats the big deal if you DONT CARE? :)

And if you are really that bad you cant enjoy the game on RANDOM lobbies maybe YOU should get better.
