As a gametype, I think 2v2 Elimenation is great. Not too similar to Trials, but still taps in to some of the same elements that make Trials work so well.
As an event, I think Crimson Doubles was tarnished a little by several of Destiny's ongoing issues: I don't think the new special ammo tweaks are having a net positive effect on gameplay at the moment. I like the spirit of the changes, I'm just not sure it is working out. Matchmaking was also problematic for some... I didn't have any trouble with it myself, but I've heard many people say that games were more tense and hyper competitive than they'd hoped. And of course, the loot drops didn't seem to go as intended.
Overall, I left Crimson Doubles feeling like it offered a great gametype, but as an event it was a bit of a dud for me.
