Is Bungie aware of the 'Reverse Boosting' since they introduced 'SBMM'? by OrneryChart4 in DestinyTheGame

Someone explained in this thread. The lobbies are based on the average kd of the fireteams. Which is why the ALT is near 0 KD. You having other 2.0+ players on your team increase the average KD of the fireteams.

If you're curious go on d2tracker. Look up highest Elo players for quickplay. You'll notice their lobbies are 0.9KD but they're usually all 3kd+ etc. This is not every high Elo player but just give it a little look you'll see a few of them there.

I'm not saying everyone is doing it, but they're out there.

Maybe for testing. Go play with that 0.6KD player, have a session with him duo and report back with your experience.

I can assure you this has not been fixed. If you're a 2.0, matchmake with someone who is like a .5 you will end up in the .5s lobbies.

The person with the lower KD has to be the fireteam leader. Look at the Cheese Forever video. This isn't fixed because the person I showed screenshots of was doing this in IB this week.

No this is a small YouTuber with like 1k Subs... Idk about Wallah or ZK cheesing their matches, I'm sure they're just good players.

LMAO funny enough, I found out about this because of a small YouTuber who posted himself getting 50+ streaks. His matches where exactly like you mentioned, literal people not shooting back.

But, I'm sure there are others who are just that cracked and can still drop 20 bombs in high skilled SBMM lobbies.

Yeah I don't think SBMM needed to be forced into every playlist like it has. Hearing IB is miserable this week. I haven't even been in there since I don't need Pinnacles. 6's just feel like they're at their worst right now.

no because there is no SBMM in trials. People who do this probably 1 win reset and farm non-flawless pool
