You have valid points on the pve side, i can agree there
However on the quickplay side you're wrong, as far as i know every single playlist besides it has sbmm or a form of it in rbmm.
Not every playlist should cater to the lower half of the player base
If better players had bonus armor or damage you could argue that, if quickplay was supposed to be a competitive gamemode you could argue that too, but its not.
It is the opposite of competitive, there is not one thing wrong with mashing top tier, good, bad and terrible players together in non-ranked gamemodes. AT ALL.
Quickplay needs to remain as is and as what its intended to be: a place to match quickly vs all tiers and see where you really fall out.

Comp uses only your current glory rank and nothing else to determine ‘skill’. Horrible way of doing it when you’ve had people get to legend with not forgotten multiple seasons before. But there aren’t enough people playing to sustain a tiered bronze, silver, gold, platinum style structure.

Wrong. OP is correct and has the numbers to back it up. The “bottom half” is really more like the bottom 90%, who continually get fed to the top 10% for shits and giggles, because the top 10% are the only ones who argue against evenly matched opponents, because then they might get shit on the way the rest of us do. Bring back SBMM. More fair means more fun means more players. You would only ask for blowout games and uneven matchmaking if you’re on the winning side with your dust rock, Luna’s/NF, wardcliff. The rest of us are done with it, as the numbers reflect.

Edited by Haunter: 2/21/2019 2:19:15 AM1. Wrong the top 50% enjoy CBMM 2. "Fair" and close, competitive games are for the COMPETITIVE playlist. They have absolutely no place in quickplay Player numbers are down because of the content draught - we are in between very lackluster updates and theres nothing to do - SBMM in fact nearly killed this game in Y1 ao let's not pretend bringing that back will improve player numbers

actually IT IS A BAD THING. Even more so when there are more and more stacks. Putting a top tier player on a team of crappy players can still net a victory if the other team has a good player at best. People leave because they get pubstomped . Over and over

Going into a random match or go competitive, there should be a non competitive playlist rather than just jump. Never made sense to me
