Skill-based damage (SBD) in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has become a controversial topic within the gaming community. While Activision has confirmed skill-based matchmaking (SBMM) exists, the existence of SBD remains unconfirmed.

What is Skill-Based Damage? Skill-based damage refers to a theoretical system where the game would automatically adjust player damage output based on performance:
- Higher-performing players would deal less damage
- Lower-performing players would deal more damage
- The goal would be to balance gameplay and retain players

Current Evidence:
- Activision filed a patent years ago regarding dynamic gameplay adjustments
- The patent was intended for games like Skylanders, not Call of Duty
- No concrete evidence exists proving SBD in Black Ops 6
- Reports of inconsistent damage could be attributed to:
- Internet connection issues
- Server performance
- Regular game mechanics
The Bottom Line: While theoretically possible, there's no definitive proof that skill-based damage exists in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Activision has not addressed these claims, and any concrete evidence would need to come directly from the company itself.
