We all know that SBMM is in Apex and that it has been a VERY controversial topic in the gaming community in general. In Apex Legends however, tons of people are complaining that SBMM is pairing them with people way above their skill level. I don't know what Respawn is going to do about this. Whether they do nothing or something. I don't think Respawn is willing to remove it from their game, but I'm sure they'll come to an agreement about making the match making less strict. I've included 6 screen shots of Death recaps from the last 2 weeks and one screenshot of my player stats from today (6/19/2020) for comparison. Looking at these screenshots, you can see that most of these people have about double my ACCOUNT STATS on their ONE LEGEND. I usually die before the first ring even starts to close and I STILL get paired with these players. I can't play for more than an hour or 2 every other day usually because of this. One day I decided to run around with nothing and die by people as fast as I could to lower the sbmm in an attempt to "smurf" without making an account. After about 2 hours, I finally got down to level 100-200's. PLAYERS WITH SIMILAR STATS! Before people tell me to just play ranked, I don't play ranked because of people smurfing in ranked.
I am not good by any means, but SBMM sure thinks I am
