Few iron banners ago, I was invited to a fireteam of 5 lesser skilled players (friend of friends). I was hesitant at first, but I couldnt decline them, because I thought I would be rude, so I joined for a couple of games to see how things went. Game after game I started getting 25+ kills a game. As long as I initiated, get a pick or 2; thus providing numbers advantage, we went on nice winning streak.
That would be the only time SBMM was ever nice to me. Fast forward to present day... I hate SBMM with a passion for a while now. It thinks Im a god at this game and therefore rigs the match ups so I am almost always at a disadvantage. I always have to have my best set up in my inventory. When I dont have non-meta weapons on me, I get killed by snipers/MIDA/LW with insane accuracy. The message is clear.. You are guaranteed to lose every encounter unless you sweat your arse off.

Yeah I've had simliar experiences: it was maybe 3-4 Iron Banners ago, joined a friend's group with 2 really low skill players (sometimes they would have 0.19-0.3 K/Ds in a match). So 4 solid average-ish players, 2 bad players- we went 12-1 and I averaged a K/D over 4. Was a ton of fun. Just before that, playing solo, I averaged a 0.6. And afterward, playing with a high skill player and a low skill player (fireteam of 3), averaged a 1.3 K/D.

Yep, IB 13 game loss streak. Was astounding... tears.
-
Yep, SBMM is working.

No it's not working the way it's supposed to work--laggy players tend to inch their way up to the top. Now because I have higher skill i'm mixed with these las ass players. That was NOT the intent.

I was jokingly agreeing even though we both know SBMM is BS.
-
A great dialog; thanks!
-
Sbmm is nice to you only because you are team up with less skilled players. It dropped you to a lower tier pool!

I tried to bring them in skrim, salvage. No avail.. -.-

LOL; torture... stop capturing the relic!!!!! Heavy round. Runs to resurrect a downed player after they're blown up with a rocket to face. Proceeds to get rocket to face again.
