@@Trucking4Jesus ;) just carry man simple as that, that's what I do plus the game is meant to be fun so it's great that everyone is able to play trials like this ^~^ happy to see some of my friends having fun in trials feels really good
I had a teammate who sat on his shadebinder for nearly 4 rounds in a tied 4/4 game and got picked without popping it last night in trials, and we lost on my lighthouse game, luckily I still had mercy and won the next game. Blows my mind how people play sometimes.
The way you dominate in this game is insane,ive only been playing d2 for a few months,and I am pretty bad at pvp,trials even more so.thanks to the solo que I've been able to get both trials pinnacle both weeks,but no flawless.....yet.i watched your 0(160)-5500 video and wow,your videos are the only d2 videos I actually like watching lol
That game 3 was driving me nuts to watch. Teams of people that actually know how to use and abuse stasis and make builds are the most infuriating to play against.
They did small things to show how my sweat was dripping off of them too. Like when they Titan got rez’d, he started spinning a shit ton to make it hard to snipe his head off Rez. Like calm down
@@pokz4234 yeah it gets really boring playing players that play so passive. I recently matched a Uber passive team in comp too was super annoying ended up having to full push them
Trying to play after flawless is such a pain... unplayable for me (i think I'm slightly above average) and even with my bros, it's just impossible to try and grind. Feels like trials before the reworks. I understand where Bungie is coming from for the change, but I'm not a big fan. I probably just suck hardcore though
Maybe you just need more experience, I went flawless with an old clanmate who had gone flawless once and another friend who already had 4 this past weekend
@@johnvillalobos66 I've been playing crucible since y1 d1 with over 50 flawless in rise of iron, 20 in TTK, 6ish during HoW. of my 2K hours in d2, a little over 1K is spent in the crucible. :/
I went 3-0 last night myself then found a team of two my 4th match and they actually teamed up with me after we won. Needless to say this new trials system is awesome. They helped me get to my first legit flawless and the experience was awesome I felt like I was sweaty but still didn't feel like I was matching with players who were to far beyond my skill. Cheers and hopes to anyone trying to get their first flawless because it is possible.
@@kenzilbaptiste2519 improve by getting destroyed every single match? Nope. Every average player that's complaining about this change has the same problem. Get a flawless, then you can't play no more because you just match sweats that stomp you everytime. There's no improving when you can't do nothing. I matched like 4 times a team that was getting their flawless again, when my team was at the first match because we couldn't win
Zk at the beginning of the round: "I'm go for the risky play" *3 kills and round ends* Zk: "It worked out" ---- So what I'm hearing is just be good and get lucky
Is this real? I got a 7 win card and farmed it literally all weekend. It was alot more fun than easy games and the rewards were fuckin dope ive got like 100 ehancement prisms (50+ in post master), 12 golf balls, and dozens of trials engrams. Being able to farm a 7 win card has brought me back to destiny tbh.
It ain’t. It’s the one and only lethal ability a hunter has. Yes it’s op yes it’ll get nerfed cause it needs but I’m sick of seeing such strong abilities for Titans and warlock but damn when hunters have one thing more than the dodge it’s OP it’s breaking the game omg
42:16 Agreed. I started having it on just to see and it's worked for me. I even chatted with someone on stadia doing the astral alignment activity. He sounded fine to me and he said I did too (I'm on PC).
Mann I wish I was this good. But I only just started D2 last season. Got so much to learn but damn ur video helps so much with strategies and passive v aggressive gameplay. Love it, subbed
@@Stak0 what? its literally about aiming this is an fps. Sure you need to learn positioning but you also need to learn how to fucking aim and land your shots.
I managed to go flawless yesterday for the first time thanks to the new matchmaking. I love it although I think it needs to be tied to each character in order to increase replay ability
It’s actually an in game thing enemy stasis crystals are harder to destroy than friendly. If you check some of the tool tips that popup during loading screens it’ll say it sometimes
U are a monster in the air man. Respect and thanks for sharing thought process 🙂 Also coming from a non sniper guy, is cloud strike worse than EoS? Like if you get a headshot at least have a chance of messing up some teammates nearby?
I know this is 8 months late, but he is using Palindrome as his energy weapon, while there is some good alternatives for kinetic handcannon in the game right now, namely being the Austringer, at this point Pali was widely considered the best
Appreciate the tips&tricks on how to fight on pvp maps! Unfortunately I'm a potato and my warlock moves like Mary Poppins, showing her knickers for all Crucible to see.lol
I'm not sure how you feel when you play solo in the flawless matchmaking pool, but this is certainly more enjoyable to watch than watching you play against below average solo players every other match. I wish there was an in-game ranking system for Trials that rewards the top X players in a season with emblems and other cosmetics beyond gilding the flawless title and getting lighthouse cosmetics. Raids have world's first and day one rewards, Trials is supposed to be PvP's ultimate endgame, so the best players should get rewards that are just as prestigious. Like a title/emblem/ornaments/ships just for the top 500 Trials players (ranked by flawless runs, win streaks, wins after flawless, etc) in a season, and then you can't get those anymore, they're different next season
That’s a great idea imo and then it will be worth the harder difficulty. I feel people need to quit whining about the flawless pool and this could end that! How boring to just play noobs all the time when you can dominate the best for ultimate glory and prestigious rewards! ✊🏻😅
I switched the time zone, but what do I know? Spending nights hitchhikin', where will I go? I could fly home with my eyes closed But it be kinda hard to see, that's no surprise though You can find me, I ain't hiding I don't move my feet when I be gliding I just slide in and then I roll out
I had to carry two dead weight teammates in solo queue once, I had 7 kills, BOTH MY TEAMMATES HAD NONE. One of my teammates was also 110 power under powerful cap (he was also wearing common armor, the white color stuff that you get at the start of D2 intro campaign). Blows my mind how people can be so ignorant and show up to trials after 0 practice in pvp.
As a decent player, playing solo not being flawless while flawless pool is active was the most fun in trials I've ever had. 7 games, 0 stacks. 35 other solo players.
So just throwing this out there. The main ingredient doesn’t exactly shoot too far for its weapon class everyone’s so surprised because usually fusion rifles are used at shorter distances by people who peek walls but since players have gotten more confident over time they play better with the fusions as the mid range weapon they are actually classed as. Any other fusion will do the same thing. So don’t blame the distance of the fusion rifles but rather the confusion of the player base.
I'm not a trials player per say but I went close this last weekend just going in solo. I had 6 wins a handful of times but couldn't get over the line it's such a disadvantage not having coms when playing 3 stacks.
I got to 6 wins yesterday solo matchmaking and on the last game I had a teammate using bad juju and null composure with well and another using legal action and the number 😭😭
''you don't wanna be the one challenging with a sniper, if you're the one with a super'' as he challenges with a sniper while being the one with a super. LMAYO
Tried this same challenge late last night (i.e. Solo Flawless in Flawless Pool). Went perfectly Game 1-5 with mostly duo teammates. Then Game 6 rolls around and suddenly I feel like I'm babysitting. Lost mercy, then lost Flawless... Shame, cuz every game was pretty sweaty and an enjoyable challenge. Just sucks to have two bad dice rolls back to back unfortunately.
Playing trials after a flawless passage is hard. The teamshots and calls just needs to be good(It's not that hard to go flawless after a passage for me but there are sweatty matches as well)
See I did not mind the changes whereas I have to go against other players who also went flawless, my biggest issue is the matching making where I get shit players who crouch in corner and gets easily killed
What happens if you go flawless and then play with one of your friends who hasn’t gone flawless that week? I’d assume you still get put in the flawless pool but idk.
Because Destiny has such a fleshed out group play system, they probably won't put much effort into connecting solo players. For most players, if you feel like using mics and communicating then you're playing with a fireteam/clan.
I love the teaching while you’re playing. The knowledge you’re giving out for us pve players is priceless for when I go into trials. Thanks!
I'm a warlock main and want to practice more sniping videos like this are very nice.
Please don't go into trials

Same here, well 2 days ago but I went through every damn emotion but that pic solo at the lighthouse was worth it. Good shit guys.
sick. while everyone complains about the flawless pool, mushroom is casually doing solo 360 noscope flawless runs. awesome
