I never understood the strat for that. There's no way to get hustled by that. You have 10 matches to make adjustments. If you don't then the outcome would have been the same anyways if they kept their real gear on from the very beginning.

Yea, it's just to get a surprise win. But there's already so much element of surprise in first round since you don't know how the other team plays.

DestinyTracker says I'm in the top 2% for kills, deaths (lol), and assists in Crucible. I play a lot but not sure it's that much. What number are you referring to for the ToO ranking? My DTR score for Trials is 951, whatever that means, doesn't sound too good.

DestinyTracker PvP true skill ranking by game mode (ToO) on PS.

I played with a friend from my list who would always brought the fight to the center. That is where we would evaluate their skill if they were good close quarters or not.

3x 9-0 this week as well. Now I can stop playing till reset and finish TW3.

I hate chasing people around this map. Hopefully next week's map is good.

How's this Matador roll? Looking for it to replace my felwinters. Not sure how badly I'll miss aggressive ballistics.

Shot package, rifled barrel, luck in the chamber.

So, in TOO, we just had a team left in matchmaking but it didn't count as a win for us or a loss for them.

They just left somehow and we got put back into matchmaking. Some way to leave without getting a loss?

There are some streamers (probably others too) that if you donate to them, you get an insta carry or get on a short list of people to be carried to 9-0.

Triple is always taking his subscribers to Mercury, and that requires a $5 monthly fee.

I have heard that if you leave quickly enough then it doesn't count. Not sure how quickly you have to leave and where the cut off is at.

If the map is already loading then it should count.

Wow that doesn't sound bad especially for me since I get online pretty late so I miss playing with groups, for example right now its 7:20 PM for me xD.
 
I got a Judgement VI with shot package, final round, aggressive ballistics and reinforced barrel.

Should I keep it and keep rerolling one with small bore?

I say keep it.

Personally I think reinforced barrel is better then small bore. Who cares about stability in a shotgun?

There was a guy with celestial nighthawk in a match I played yesterday. Waste of an exotic online. Limiting yourself to one golden gun shot is dumb in trials.


Maybe he was giving himself a handicap.

How is "catfanone" only ranked 84 on the ToO true skill list?

When I watch his stream the guy is always getting huge kills and rarely ever dying and always winning.

Anyone know what is the exact formula that DestinyTracker uses to calculate true skill?

I think it's pretty much the number of games you've played and won.

My True skill is laughably low, i.e 13-14 for ToO, despite the fact that I have close to 80% wins and my KDR ranging from good to great with some 4-5 duds in between. But I've only played close to 90 matches or so.

He wanted to kill you 6 times over...he really wanted that kill.

Oh man. Rubenov is a straight up one man wrecking crew. GGs!
Rubenov was the original GAF Crucibke train sponsor. Look forward to catching a few matches this Iron Banner. Since its low stakes the mood is different from trials - relaxed and joking around, just nice banter to play with. Best Destiny <3

Nghtly has a crazy win % at like 97% with a huge number of games played (545).
