    Because the modes are casual, I should be able to have a bit of fun, some games will be easy, some games will be harder. I can experiment with different styles, loadouts whatever. SBMM in casual modes ruins this, because every game turns into a sweaty slog.

    You also dont improve at games past a certain point by killing bots and players just as bad as yourself. I got better by playing against and with the better players, the lobbies were more diverse which was more fun and better for learning.

      I feel like you don’t understand how SBMM works based on your last paragraph. The point of it is that you will always be at or close to your skill level, and as your skills get better you’ll be matched with people of the same skill level. It’s actually good for your own skill and improvement because you don’t just get annihilated or do the annihilating every match since you got matched with plebs or gods.
