The fun fact with current waiting time, SBMM and the old system
There was à time, one or two years ago (may be mistaken on the date tho and it could have been à bit more), where yes the matches where pretty fair in terms of matchmaking, i remember even being rarely paired with purple ranks when i was red rank, and so it was also for pmenty of friends of mine and people i knew.
Yet it also created times with very long queue times for one side or the other.
The solution that BHVR vrought was to open the ranks, so you could face à bit more of...everything...it didnt worked that well at the beginning but games would be found quickly! And later they worked over it
Recently i found i had more red/purple combos when i was red ranks, yet more rarely yellow and less, but we changed to SBMM... thats nother story
The fun fact is: with SBMM it creates once more dead times or times with very long queue times for à rôle or another, or for your best killer/survivor. Which basically is going back some years and pretty bad so to say (imo) but oh well...we can only hope they work around it...right?
TL:DR: there was à time where Matchmaking was fair but queue was long, they oppened the ranks to shorten the queue time, and SBMM makes queue times longer again on certain times/killer/survivors
