SBMM has a lot of problems

Bridge solos needs a major rework in terms of how queueing works.

The last few days I’ve been trying to queue bridge solos and it’s literally unplayable. Usually 1 of 2 things happen after a few rounds:

  1. The more common of the two, I get in an endless loop for up to 30 minutes of getting into the same players game just for them to leave. Over and over again. Even after I manage to queue against someone else, I’ll get back into that loop the very next game.

  2. I get into a loop of queueing the same blatant cheater over and over again.

Here are my suggestions to maybe make the whole system work:

  • Implement anonymous queuing similar to what Hypixel has where you don’t actually know who you’re playing against until after the game has started. This will prevent people from queue dodging

  • This one might be a little complicated, but rework the system so you’re not fighting the same player multiple games in a row. Making the time that it takes to queue people in a lower/higher rank than you shorter would also help with this

your solutions are both amazing, yes and yes to both!
