I'd like multiplayer a lot more if they still made games with user-driven match making, instead of opaque algorithms hellbent on ensuring that everyone maintains a perfect 50/50 win rate. That and the death of custom game modes/lobbies have really killed all the fun of online multiplayer.
As much as that may be true for you, on average people enjoy MP games with SBMM more than without by a decent margin. Studies have shown that people play more matches and play longer sessions when SBMM creates more balanced matches.
personally not for me once i start getting destroyed by people leagues above my skill level i just stop playing
there's rarely ever games that are even, i either cream the opposing noobs or get creamed by the opposing pros. no in between
