Go Home SBMM, You're Drunk.
It feels like something was tweaked recently.
Yesterday and today - instant killer queues, but the worst matches I've had in ages.
Just sweaty group after sweaty group, all incredibly BM for some reason - with me struggling to get a kill half the time.
Anyone else see something similar? Before yesterday, matches felt normal. Now...I have no idea what's going on.

Sounds like normal SBMM to me

Ah, so you've finally gotten to the point where SBMM decides to just fail. Welcome.

Eh. I like the idea of the system, and overall my matches have generally been more even - just over the last two days, something feels...off. Like queues were getting too long for survivors or something so they quietly tweaked something.
Wouldn't be the first time (I joined right after killer matchmaking protections had been entirely disabled, and the devs hadn't said a thing).

I would like it if SBMM had a bit of nuance, such as character level.
Example: I bought the Artist a few days ago and have been giving her a try. I was level 1 with only a single yellow perk to use but I was getting matched with survivors that ran circles around me. I can accept that my lack of knowledge on using her was a contributing factor but this happened over the course of a few games as I was trying to level/learn her. It also isn't the first time it has happened when I'm trying a new killer and I don't even have the full roster yet.
I think if a character, be they survivor or killer, is under level 15 there should be a hard limit on the SBMM of who they get matched against.

Game or two of sweat. Managed 3K, 4K; then i had like 10 matches in a row of baby soloQ. And was confused whats going on…
And then it repeats

It has seemed completely and utterly random as of late. No better than the old ranked matchmaking. It seems the fatal flaw of this system is that it has no idea how to coherently handle a queue imbalance. It's just throwing killers wherever there is an open lobby once survivor wait times exceed a threshold. I'm getting mostly complete babies who struggle to complete a gen, and then I'll randomly get a decent match every 5th game or so.

The problem is a good portion of high mmr killers are taking a break because of how unpleasant high mmr games are. Unfortunately the game has to give the 4 man bully squads to someone and this results in newer killers being paired with them.

I've had the opposite. Just tunneling camping kille vafter tunneling camping killer.
No us versus them, just the facts of tonight.
Neither are very fun.

They 100% tweaked something (My guess is Devotion is taken into account). And I only have 550 games as a sample size. The MMR noticeably put me against the top 1% teams 20 games in a row today.

I doubt it. I'm Dev 1, and I'm facing people with thousands of hours at times.
