Since the debut of Infinity Ward’s rebooted Call of Duty Modern Warfare in 2019, the situation of skill-based matchmaking (SBMM) has affected many players of the iconic series. Due to a complicated and mysterious implementation, most of them have ended up disliking it, to say the least. In other words, it has become a controversial topic in recent years among hardcore fans.
Another reason for that is the fact that the newest installment in Modern Warfare II also features the SBMM. Yes, the divisive feature has made a comeback in the ongoing entry as well. Not to mention that most of the fans are still not happy with how it works for them in online matches. On top of it, many of them don’t exactly know how to make skill-based matchmaking vanish from the game. Fortunately, one YouTuber has now found a way to tackle this unwanted feature.

A YouTuber who runs the channel by the name of TheXclusiveAce, uploads a lot of CoD-based content. He generally focuses on how to make the overall experience better. Considering that, he recently came up with a video, while trying to explain how players can actually beat SBMM without really using any kind of exploits or reverse boosting tactic.
The content creator mentioned a handful of tips in order to eliminate the possibility of witnessing skill-based matchmaking in Call of Duty Modern Warfare II. Using them, one can end up having a better mix of lobbies. To begin with, players need to have a smaller pool of people while connecting for the matches. Because the smaller the population of individuals when the matchmaking is going on, the lesser the chances of coming across similarly skilled players.

The second tip given by TheXclusiveAce is that Call of Duty users need to play during off-peak hours. Doing this can make a huge difference. It will reduce the chances of witnessing many people at one time. Thus, the overall number of participants will remain low. Another crucial thing they have to do is to disable Crossplay whenever possible. While playing Multiplayer matches, it isn’t necessary to keep it enabled.
One more helpful tip the users of Modern Warfare II have to follow is to engage in modes having fewer people. Also, they need to avoid selecting too many modes from the QuickPlay filters before starting a match.
