Silent shadowban

So my friends are facing some weird situation that idk what it is.

They can play 1-2 matches before they get into a situation where they can't find a match. there is no 350 ping, is normal ping, but they're just searching forever.

If they make a new account they can play again.

If someone knows more about this, please let me know.

Sounds odd.

I've been noticing very long queue times for Plunder and Solo BR modes.

Rebirth is the best test for "can I get into lobbies with this account"

Game kinda seems to be dying-ish tbh.

But maybe I am just playing on off hours.

We tried at hours were a lot of people is playing, only searching rebirth.

I can find a match, but they can't.

I even used on of their account and I was searching for 20 minutes without finding a match, so I can be sure that is not their internet.

See if they can unlink there account from battle net on Activision.com if it says that account is under review then most likely it will be getting banned. Especially if you can find matches and don't have SB ping of 350 that means they detected something and put your account under review

Its a new shadow ban method, my account used to go to 350 really quick, now it shows normal ping and searching for a game but searches forever. It will only find a Rebirth cheater lobby after waiting quite some time.

You don’t need to use aimbot to get shadowed.
