Purples do not want anyone on their own team who is not the same
skill level as they are because the lower skilled players drag down
their win rate. This is a very old argument that has been being
made forever. They want teams of purples and nothing but purples so
they know they can rely on their team mates for support. What they
do NOT want, is what you seem to be proposing, which is equal
numbers of all colors on both sides. That makes for unreliable
teams, and unreliable teams are bad. There is no point to changing
matchmaking at all if you are still going to mix players of all
skills on the same teams, because it doesn't resolve the issue of
higher skilled players complaining about how the lower skilled
players on their teams cause blowout losses. Nobody wants to
finish a match where the bottom 4 or 5 players on their teams do
zero damage, and players with a 55%+ WR do not want players with
a WR of 45% or below on their teams. That's the whole
basis of the argument for skill based matchmaking.
TeriyakiTanker: And again you are dodging my question. You stated that it was
obvious that SBMM would increase wait times. Show me some
proof. And in all honesty I am not purple, I will never be
purple, and I don't speak for any unicums, but I don't see a single
unicum in this thread saying anything close to what you are
saying. If you just admit you don't know anything about what
will happen to wait times with SBMM I will just move on.
