The fact that bronze players are getting put against pred 3 stacks is laughable, I do not think I’ve ever seen a worse matchmaking system than apex in my life. I grow more and more glad I quit with each passing day

There is no enjoyment for average players

The mmr is the reason I left Apex around a year ago, too inconsistent trying to climb ranked

Ranked used to be an escape from the horrible pubs matchmaking for us average players. Let's hope S20 is back to the good ol days of Apex Ranked mode.

Why can't it just be the respective ranks? Why does there have to be a second rating behind it? What's the point of the rank anyway if something else is going to dictate what your opponents are? It's so dumb...

Why is no one talking about the fact Zeus just dogged on that #2 pred like he was taking out trash 😂

the guy at the start actually almost beat a triple pred stack on his own actually insane

I was playing yesterday. Kept getting the same loser on my team for like 4 games . I'm shooting at people getting damage and this dude is just watching me . Not firing his gun once! I'm literally yelling at him to shoot at the people I am . He says he wants to save his ammo . We got pushed a d stuffed like turkeys within seconds. . All that ammo he saved and he never even used one round. This shit is beyond frustrating

That's one of the reasons why i stopped playing Apex for a while. I'm Plat and it's unfair for me to play against Preds / Masters. That kills the enjoyment of Apex for me.

i am not playing apex until the person who thought mmr was a good idea ...gets fired.

Bro so many people are bad but just 3 stack everyday, you almost 1v3ing those bots was hilarious

as SOLO PLAYER> I hate this season. You need to win to get promoted and your team mates are all bronze on a Plat to Diamond lobby and when you hit a diamond your team mates would be bronze or gold and you get demoted because of these team mates.

Thank you for speaking the truth. I was the only one last season speaking up. I don't know how respawn did it... but they managed to make THE most toxic match making game in human history for solo players. 3 stack preds gaslighting entire lobbies of Bronze and Silver players all the time, every time. Absolute horrible experience last few seasons. I loved APEX... they destroyed it.

"Do we believe them!?" No!" Ahaha. Its been 2 years of shit ranked. Just garbo devs. Also its been 5 years and they are saying the MMR/SBMM is now "figured" out. Don't believe the devs, not until they prove us wrong.

Just love Zeus uploads!!! Freaking greatness!

This is why me and my friend quit after we finished the battle pass. In earlier season we were low diamond players at best. Now we are stuck in gold playing against pred 3 stacks.

Damn power to you man. I started mid way through split 2 returning after not playing since season 9. My god I dropped ranked so fast lol. Every match pred and masters three stacks coming up from rookie with only bronze and silver team mates. I am by no measure a good player at this game either, lifetime K/D of 0.6. I like the rank I'm in actually reflecting my skill and the skill of those around me. Now it's just, well yeah I'm already fighting the top 0.1% of the player base as a solo queue so go figure the grind is taking forever, is there a point anymore? I have to say though. I'm glad they finally did something about CFGs at least.

Zeus just casually styling on Complexity's pro roster...

It took me 4 trials to get to Diamond despite winning before & after my trials; it's like they kept giving me the biggest bots against the biggest 3 stack sweats as soon as I was doing my trials. Only got in on my fourth attempt because I had a Pred Horizon. I don't see a problem with average or slightly above average players 3 stacking, but when sweats 3 stack it just makes the game absolutely miserable. Last 3 seasons of ranked have just been so horrendous it's unreal. They need a separate ranked playlist where you can't stack after hitting Diamond. Solo queuing ranked this season made me want to die it was so bad.

2:36 is the most real thing anyone can say 😂

Props to you both for your ability to stick it out during the promo/trial rank up bullshit as a solo. It broke me. I made it to diamond trial 4x solo (ignoring all the repeated tries to promo from silver>gold previously) and I just couldn't anymore and quit playing. Also the fact you recognized it wasn't Marcus fault at the beginning of the video because he shouldn't have been fighting preds at his level in the first place. Not many "content creators" have the empathy/decency to do that instead of just calling guys like him trash all the time. Very classy imo.

Glad to have you back for another video 🤘

yea thats my exact experience going from d4 to master. im not facing some old washed up preds, im facing current preds and pro players. im in eu so there arent as many big names, but some of the more notable players i went against during my time in diamond were: Alliance Effect, Xerrifer, TSM Mande, Apryze, Crewsn, Graceful, 9impulse, gdoplhin, etc.

first time coming across your video, and i just like it. Subbed. There is something about the energy... just soothes the soul lmao

isn't this the third season in a row where zeus could say that it's the worst ranked season environment ever without lying even once?

"Marcus, Airz... Fu---" - Thank you, editor. 😂

Made it half way thru before i got mad from the fact this looks exactly like my ranked experience and im over it

This is literally what's been happening to me all season, I went from rookie to plat and it was nothing but 3 stack preds all the way through so I just gave up and couldn't bother pushing to diamond. I don't know if it's some glitch like the good old "bot lobby glitch" back in season 7 but it's been pissing me off, either that or it's sbmm doing it's thing and fucking me ten times over

Nice aim man what sense do you use?

Damnnn i havent seen your streams for a while and you can still break them ankles goood

This is from last season right?

I solo queued in gold a couple days ago and got killed by the TSM squad warming up for algs. Got to love it lol

I love how it is easier to rank up as the lobbies get more "difficult". When you get better team mates, you can actually level up.

What is the name of the skin he is using on revenant ?

Sad to see😢 I’m so hyped for the new season tho!!!

Bro, I was playing on oc with controller and for my silver match to rank up to gold my 2 teammates were predators, they had about 20 something kills combined and needless to say, we won that match!

The title makes it seem like you're saying that it's Reptar's fault he's facing people in metal ranks.

This is only happening because nobody is playing anymore and to decrease queue times they have to match whoever is available.

best part of this video is how you almost killed a pred 3 stack by yourself... because that is what playing this game solo turns you into

Ive never hit pred but was always going against them in pubs and in my placement matches with the new MMR/rank system

First 😮😮 do u play with subs

I never played ranked this season because i'm literally gold 4 in pred lobbies. I even died in promotionals when I was bronze against preds. So effed up.

I solo’d to masters in 4 weeks and I was so tired of the game after it, s19 was a hard/annoying season to get masters

They should bring back the rank next to the names so we can see what rank the players that killed us and we kill are because I don't believe a word they say

Who doesn’t zeus turn pro

Why don’t you play on Singapore or Sydney servers ??

One of my friends tried to convince me that apex had skill based matchmaking, and I just laughed

Bring the mighty Zeus intro back

This has been obvious since begging of season 18 I swear absolute joke of. Ranked system lol

HOPE and the solo grind this season was rough asf omfg!

7:10 you are awsome dude 😂

Sheesh not just preds but pros I saw monsoon, reptar and another pro on another team.

I literally had to stop playing and delete the game because the match making is trash, I even decided to do ranked to try to have a better lobby set up, but I couldn't even get out of bronze 2 😮‍💨

I was silver 1 against the #1 ps pred team zenning like crazy thank god they are changing it. I’ve been pred before but pred lobbies all the way through silver up is ridiculous

I was used to playing masters and preds -while being in low silver lobbies all fucking season.

i have no idea how sbmm supposed to work. on my second account my ranked kd is 2.30, my dmg is 647, that account is in gold 1 but im constantly in diamond - pred ranked lobbies, are those preds bad, how they end up in my games lol ? not to mention that my teammates are very obviously not even same skill / experience level as ME let alone preds, in 90% of the game they are clueless, do less dmg than me and dont communicate, i have to igl them and even then most of them dont listen or just toxic...

I think the ranked system could have really done well if they separated the solo Q players and the 3 stacks. But then duos would either run rampant or get shit on. Hard to please everybody

This is what happens anytime I play with a friend. All pred lobbies and i just get shit on.

I decided to stop playing Apex Legends after giving it a try for the past 4-5 days. My Silver lobbies being filled with Trio Master Squads, which I find ridicolous. Wondering why this issue hasn't been addressed yet..

im usually a plat player and only really play solo. i had just made it to silver finally the day before the new season. such BS

I am silver 4 and every match was top 500 preds over and over, I literally had to switch to London Servers with 200ping to find a balanced match. I stopped played cause of this ( This season )

With 200 Ping Killing almost 3 preds with 30 Ping is insane❤

idk, I played a lot of games in bronze I got no player that was anywhere close to Master-Pred, sure in Season 20 I've probably gone against some, but that's because everyone's rank went back to Rookie, I don't really mind that, as they will rank up a lot quicker

I can confirm this, I've been stuck at my gold to plat trails and I just die by preds or get pred players that are chap loading in. Like wtf, I can not wait for next season ranked Jesus fuck

This is the shit that happends in cod ranked plat 1 playing against dimond and crim players smfh

I hate the fact that I'm level 15 on PC currently and I'm up against the same people which makes zero sense...

Im currently in gold iv been against 3 stack pred teams the whole time through silver im just a casual player the matchmaking is the worst iv seen in a long time

Zeus, champion of the people

I stopped playing ranked 4 seasons ago sick of fighting 3 stack preds and masters when I have 2 team mates in bronze

how tf did you finally get good ping ?!

I quit 2 years ago and never going back

Big love for the Revvy Boy! Fark yeah dude!

Truly a solo queue Apex experience

"Do we believe them" NO lmao

zeus out here wishing he was playing against bronze players instead of players he should actually be playing against

I have just gotten used to getting fed to 3 stack preds. I have just changed my expectations to consider a top 3 placement a great game.

Yeah my experience playing ranked for 9 hours was something else, we were in pc lobbies because of our third and my duo and i are xbox our ranks are platinum 2, i’m silver 4 and our third we found was bronze on pc, even on pc not a single pred we faced mostly plat players despite her mmr being a bit on the higher side because we win most games and can easily gain 1,000+ rp each time we play. Later our third left and we picked up one of my playstation friends joined he was diamond last season so had the higher mmr out of us and in our games nothing but preds and masters some of which were on pc in console lobbies we didn’t manage to get a win because of it but we did manage to place top 3-5 most of the time. Regardless mmr is stupid and it’s just unfair because we’re a good team my team and i can play diamond lobbies and can put up one hell of a fight against the preds due to experience, but a rookie or bronze stand no chance against the preds.

I have been in pred lobbies as a silver so many times why I have no idea. 100k damage against players that have 2m preds full stack

im gold 2. normally average plat. if i have alot of time and wanna grind i ca. get to diamond. but rn im stuck gold 2 and everytime i die. its 3 stack. i would feel bad for my team8s but i always do the most. it is so annoying.

zeus mew settings ?

Been an average to slightly above average player since the beginning. And I had to step away from Apex for a while ..it just wasn't fun anymore..ive had a great time playing other games lately tho..sipping my toe into other gnres I don't normally play has been very refreshing..ill be back for season 20 to see if the changes are good

They are so mentally twisted. Precise SBMM is supposed to be for ranked as a secondary matchmaking tool outside of rank itself. It’s casual games that need less sbmm, it’s so stupid

I was in gold going up against master/diamond players. It was so bad pubs felt like bot lobbies because I wasn't getting lasered 0.5 seconds after I shot at them.

Season 19 was the least enjoyable season I’ve played. I was completely steam rolled by 3 stack preds in ranked very consistently while in plat level. Not to mention you need a win in these lobbies to rank up. I stopped playing the game. Hopefully season 20 is better.

I did some random placement matches like 5 days before the season end, got rookie 3 (wow, who would have thought) and I kept getting killed by either gold/diamond+ badge owners, or was put with Predator-badge teammates Disgusting ngl, can't even enjoy ranked, better off sticking with casual BR

I don’t believe a word of it because they have consistently lied and the game just gets worse and worse and more and more boring the ranked grind is comparable to grinding my bare asshole on the corner of a cinder block

Ranked system without using ranks 🤦🏻‍♂️

I think when they nerfed Horizons audio cues they unintentionally nerfed all of apex's audio, most incompetent devs ever. Can't fix something without breaking something else..

There won't be bronze players in Pred lobbies, but there will definitely be Preds in bronze lobbies. 🤣

Iv had the worst grind ever this season iv had rat teamates that are pred iv had players healing in zone iv had them afk bots as teammates getting free points and fighting preds while trying to get wins with teammates who’s never played against Pred players and just die straight away 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Literally can not wait for Tuesday. Coming back after 4 months off of apex because ranked went to literal shit

what is mmr

I’m so glad I got banned for a week. I might not even come back tbh

One funny thing is at the beginning of the season I proved this. I went onto my brothers account which was silver 1 at the time and randomquing at the same time as my friend who was streaming and number 500 something pred at the time in a duo stack pred one masters trio and got in the same game as them 4 times in a row. The K/D on his account is a .7 you can not tell me thats pred skill.

The best apex player ever mighty Zeus

Zeus, I missed you!

This is the solo q experience lol

Been thinking this for a while now: I suspect that most "good"/"top" players are actually bunk ... In other words, they aren't legitimately good gamers, people who know how to play the actual game - instead, they are people who know how to game the system ... People that know how to exploit the game (by various means). Their skill is an illusion ... You see them, their badges, etc., and think that they are good ... But it's all make-belief. The end result is that 3 of them get clapped on by 1 person. It's utterly despicable. Note: Obviously not talking about actual pros.

Fair play for almost 1v3 the entire complexity pro roster

I reached d2 as a Solo player in this season but I stopped playing solo ranked for my mental health because I'm getting dog poo teammates to fight against pro players.
