if you're new to gaming, then i'll give you a pass on this one. let me explain how things work in regards to matchmaking. they can match us based on connection, or they can match us based on skill. they cannot effectively do both at the same time. one has to be prioritized over the other. by prioritizing skill, connection goes out the window as a determining factor in matchmaking. and just an fyi, "kid" is just something everyone says. but you do fall into the stereotype i stated above which refers to people that are not very good as being the chief supporters of skill based matchmaking. if you continue to play only people at your skill level, you will never improve. if half of your games consisted of being thrust into games with people whose skill was on a whole other level, improvement would be much faster and more severe. above average players deserve to dominate bad players. just like pros deserve the right to dominate above average players. it's the circle of life, bro. survival of the fittest, if you will.
