Just leaving a post, that bungie hopefully reads. Please keep SBMM in crucible. I absolutely hated crucible before this season. Constantly being stomped on by sweats. And now I can finally enjoy matches, where deaths feel fair.
Please don't listen to the YouTube/Twitch destiny players. This is the one area they are completely wrong. The view they have towards SBMM is completely toxic in my opinion.
The only reason they want non SBMM is to stomp on lesser skilled players. Which turns away the less skilled players from crucible.
Which in turn is responsible for the hellhole crucible was.
How is it not fair to be matched up against players of similar skill?
If the players you are matching up against are sweatlords, then clearly you too are a sweatlord, and you should be in those matches.
Once again, please keep SBMM, it is finally allowing for crucible to be open the other 99% of players.

Casual players who just want a competetive match exist. No debating that either. But guess who else exists? Good players who just want to see build variety and strong connections in their matches. Good players who just want a space where they can play with lesser skilled friends. Casual players that just straight up don't want to try and improve, whether the algorithm be SBMM or CBMM, and just do their bounties and leave, if that. All those groups exists as well (probably more). Limiting the discussion to the first two has been happening for years and HASN'T HELPED. Not even a little bit. This isn't a black and white "predatory or fair" discussion. Even Bungie acknowledged the drawbacks higher skilled players are experiencing the the new system, and yet everyone here is ignoring it entirely and sticking to that BS false dichotomy. Is anyone ever going to learn? At this point I think not. I'm just going to hope Bungie keeps taking in more and more data and really tunes the current algorithm as best as possible.
