either SBM is not active, or bhvr ranks swf troops higher, which is why the system is just bad
i noticed that i am often matched with swf troops, but most of them are new and or cannot play well, if they are rated higher because they play swf then i can only say, forget the sKilL bAsEd mAtChMaKiNg, the version from 24h test was very good (good survivors play together, against a good killer) was very fun, this SBM is very bad just a joke, no difference to the emblem system i get the same survivors ...
I sadly have to do my personal SBM and indeed, crossplay off and lobbies dodging (when I see people with a few hundred hours of play, minimum 3k + h) and most of the time the killers are also very good is a lot of fun, my own matchmaking :D
SBM and crossplay off experience
SBM Huntress: usually walks around like a confused person as soon as he's in front of you m1 (not mean, but she was bad...) and my mates just hid, died like flies, no gens and and and (you know as always, so SBM on or off doesn't matter, you don't notice any difference
Corssplay off Huntress: very good mindgames, map knowledge, only thrown hatches (never used m1) Sniped from very far (you were never sure even if you were 30-40m away from her), my mates were very good, it was a lot of fun
Conclusion: either the SBM is not on or they did it very badly (as bad as 1 year ago), I find it sad because the test (24h test) before it was very good, had good survivor mates like crossplay off, good killers, was fun, this is just a joke ... like hit validtion it will be a disaster, looking forward to the auto bans it will definitely not be a disaster :)))

This system needs a week or two to settle. Those SWF teams have high MMR scores because they've been beating bad killers over and over again and it's been boosting their score. Same as with a lot of killers, I'm willing to bet plenty of off-peak killers are getting their butts handed to them.
I hope not, in my eyes this is not right, because there are a lot of swf troops who are not good and only play casual (a few rounds with friends) then this results in a matchmaking (which is very bad)
the 2nd version is also very bad example, survivor 1 has 2000 (idk sbm points? xD) the killer has 4000, then the SBM does so that the gap is filled so that one comes to about 4000
In other words: survivor 1 has 2000, survivor 2,3 and 4 have 700 = 4100, that makes no sense because the person with 2000 would be frustrated and no longer have fun ...
I mean they tested it 3 months ago it was great, it was a lot of fun, so I don't understand bhvr why they did it so badly now ...
I just told you, they've spent months accumulating MMR because the current matchmaking is so poor in most regions. They haven't been going against better and better opponents, they've just been going against the same ones over and over again that they easily beat. Those kinds of trials slowly inflate the scores. If someone was at 2000 points during the last test and has spent the last few months getting easy wins, their score inflates and now they're at 3000 points, and suddenly MMR gets turned on and all these mediocre players are having to deal with people who actually earned their 3000 mmr.
In theory, a yellow rank SWF team could be scored as highly as a competitive killer just because of the idiocy of the current matchmaking and pip system.
