Skill Based Matchmaking

Skill-Based-Matchmaking (SBMM) is a mechanic in Fortnite: Battle Royale that causes players to be matched up against other players which have a similar skill level. It was first introduced in Season X.

Backlash
Though the mechanic had good intentions from Epic Games were to help less skilled players, this Update created much backlash within the Fortnite community, with many complaining of more skilled players and it being harder to obtain a Victory Royale.

Changes
On May 4th, 2020, Skill-based-matchmaking was removed only for the game mode of Squads near the end of Chapter 2: Season 2. Not only has the Squad Game Mode been improved, but their seems to be more "AI"s in a lobby as well.
