Skill based match making in zombies now?

Im always now playing with people who can read the room, are skilled, we can almost always decide to do the ee on a whim and are tram players.

I literally haven't had 1 match with a newbie the last 2 months and I play all the time. I absolutely love it. Anyone else have this experience in any way?

So ive seen some people get this relic with perks, multiple. Many lately without perks. Is it possible its something related to melee kills with the ww and the mini bosses, since thats what most do getting to round 40 without perks, or something simular. This is the 3rd time i got to round 40 with no perks. I did this on tier 1, then two times on tier 3 cursed

THE BEGINNING

• The Keepers: Ancient beings of light created to guard reality using the Aether.
• The Schism: Some Keepers, led by the Shadowman, experimented with the corrupting Dark Aether and became the Apothicons — malevolent, twisted beings.
• The First War: The uncorrupted Keepers defeated the Apothicons and banished them to the Dark Aether.

THE LONG GAME

• 5 AD: The trapped Apothicons sent meteors of Element 115 to Earth, knowing humanity would one day use it for war and accidentally create a rift for their escape.

THE GREAT WAR (1292–1299)

• The Apothicons' plan worked. The rift opened, and they invaded Earth and the Aether.
• Humanity, the Keepers, and four time-displaced warriors called Primis (younger versions of Dempsey, Nikolai, Takeo, and Richtofen from 1918) fought back.
• The Apothicons were defeated and banished again. Element 115 faded into myth.

REDISCOVERY OF 115

• 1908: A delayed 115 meteor fragment struck Tunguska, Russia.
• 1931: Large 115 deposits were found near Breslau, Germany. Dr. Ludvig Maxis founded Group 935 on May 10th to study it, with the motto: "To improve the human condition."

GROUP 935'S EARLY DAYS

• Core members: Dr. Ludvig Maxis (founder), Dr. Edward Richtofen (joined 1936), Dr. Sophia, Dr. Schuster, and Dr. Groph.
• Richtofen had secretly joined the Illuminati in 1925, an elite society seeking hidden knowledge — the perfect vehicle for the Shadowman's manipulation.
• Richtofen's early work was genuinely aligned with scientific advancement, not yet openly villainous.

THE SPLIT (1939)

• Group 935 faced financial collapse. Maxis reluctantly accepted Nazi Party funding, redirecting research toward weapons.
• Richtofen saw this as a betrayal. In secret, he and Dr. Schuster continued teleportation research.

THE MOON INCIDENT (JANUARY 4, 1940)

• Richtofen tested human teleportation on himself. The teleporter, navigating through the Aether, locked onto the strongest Aetherial signal: the Moon Pyramid Device (M.P.D.), an ancient Apothicon relic on the Moon.
• He survived because the M.P.D.'s chamber had a reality-warped atmosphere.
• Touching the device shocked him, opening a psychic channel that allowed the Shadowman and other Dark Aether entities to speak to him — beginning his descent into schizophrenia.

SHANGRI-LA & RETURN

• The M.P.D. shunted him to the ancient temple of Shangri-La.
• Stranded for weeks, he was worshipped by locals, then likely used the temple's teleporter or the Golden Rod to escape.
• He returned to Der Riese on January 23, 1940.

THE BREAK WITH THE ILLUMINATI

• Upon return, Richtofen told Schuster, "Teddy was a liar," renouncing the Illuminati after realizing its leader was a front for the Shadowman's deception.
• He immediately began planning Griffin Station, a secret Moon base to study and power the M.P.D., all behind Maxis's back.
