Lobby balancing has always been the real (and probably only) issue imho. When there is stacks it’s understandably more difficult to balance so may be something like a freelance option or fireteam-size- preference balancing. SBMM is supposed to address/minimize/lopsided games but at least for my games there is still as many mercy games this season if not more. Bungie data might have shown fewer lopsided games this season so ok that’s fantastic statistics.
