Custom lobbies are the answer. Let the player decide the type of lobby he wants to play in. That can be before or after picking the game mode (if it's not trials or competitive) if he wants connection based let him connect to others who want connection based that have a good connection to him. If he wants skill based find people at his level that have the best connection to him. Even if it's only him And 2 other people in a rumble match for example. And give better rewards at the end of each game for skill based lobbies. That's incentive for playing PvP at your level and not potentially stomping on people below you, as there are *some* (emphasis on some) who would just do that instead. And that would add to players at lower skill levels power climb, as they try to get better, their gear gets better too. Not from a light level perspective per se but the actual gear itself. Skill based lobbies should get Enhancement cores for winning and enhancement prisms for every 5 wins in a row.
TLDR: allow us to customize our lobby search, give incentives to skill based lobbies over Connection based lobbies

A choice would be nice.
