Yep. I know there was recently a very dumb push against SBMM, but it’s required for modern gaming in most contexts now. There’s a lot more players now, so some of them are incredibly skilled, and others are incredibly bad. We don’t really want them mixing if they’re playing competitively.
It also used to be that most of our games were pretty casual. Most of CS wasn’t the competitive DE mode we all play today. There were tons of servers playing custom silly game modes (and there still are!), but most players only play comp or (confusingly) still competitive unranked modes. Most games don’t have casual game modes anymore that are designed for just goofing around.
