Skill-based Matchmaking is a process of grouping players of the same level in games. This is the case in Fortnite, allowing beginners not to be continually killed by veteran players. The system was implemented at the end of Season X first in Solos and Duos, then in Squads.
Very quickly, it brought a lot of criticism since players were no longer able to play "having fun" and the lack of rigour was punished by death. Yet, it's beneficial for beginners.
Recently — and without official confirmation from Epic Games — SBM seems to have been removed from Squads. At least that's what many streamers like SypherPK, Tfue or Ali-A think — finding more and more players of different levels in their matches.
At the moment, the information is only based on feelings, so it's hard to know whether it's the truth or not. Have you noticed any difference while playing Squads?
