Why do Some Argue Against Skill Based MM?

To think they " want more wins without working for them" is just silly. those players would existing o both the losing and winning team, so your argument is null and void. The  reasons for SBMM are almost always to make games more fair by even distribution of skill to avoid lopsided matches. That doesn't necessarily translate into " free wins". It translates into a good gaming experience. I don't like blowouts win or lose. Its just not fun. Of course , if you are only a good player because you can only beat up on lesser players and would wither facing people of your own skill level on evenly matched teams you probably don't like SBMM. That is the reason 95% of the people against SBMM don't want it. They are afraid to lose their status in the game. I actually like the optional SBMM idea. You know who doesn't like it. People like you. Maybe, just maybe, YOUR pool of free wins would dry up.
