I find it nuts that they just split the player base by an arbitrary number like 23. I play on Xbox, I am level 29 and this game just became unplayable for me because I can no longer find a game...

Duos has been gone for months and clash isn’t something I can get into... it’s more like a LTM but that might be just me.

Also Duos would only spilt the player base by a third. (Solos, duos squads) but with the new updates it’s split into 4ths. Solos above 23, Solos above 23, Squads below 23, Squads above 23. With this system, I doubt you could ever bring duos back.

I liked the updates up to the point, this latest SBMM update has really killed the game for me.

Actually, it was just delayed to tomorrow haha. But region and platform bucket flexibility should help a lot. From Prol Dan:

“Hey y'all, unfortunately the matchmaking update requires more internal testing and thus has been delayed until tomorrow. We're a bit short staffed due to holidays, but still intend to release it ASAP. Preview of some changes: - All regions outside North America will matchmake with full crossplay (excluding PS4/XB1 players that have crossplay disabled) - North America Mage Rank 23+ lobbies will also matchmake with full crossplay. - Allow NA-East and NA-West to matchmake to same lobby. - PS4/XB1 matches that have crossplay off will not split any lobbies by Mage Rank.

We have been monitoring lobby health worldwide and believe these changes will resolve the biggest problems. Again, thank you for your patience!”

Couldn't have said it better myself ;)
