I don't think so to the burn suggestion.

It sounds like you are almost bummed that you didn't run into any lvl 10's to stomp on or something- to me that sounds like trueskill or bungie's mm system did a pretty good job of matching you up with players of your skill (not the lvl number that is displayed to you of course)

Having played several games of Iron Banner, I think it is working as advertised now.

Ideally, if you are a lvl 32 and your run into a lvl 20, you should be able to walk all over them. Of course, you honestly shouldn't HAVE those situations very much.That wouldn't be fun.

That means it should depend more on the level and perks of your weapons. Plain-jane crucible already lets you use your weapon perks, but balances damage levels across all players.

So in Iron Banner, say I'm using Mida, and I run into another player with Mida, we both see each other at the same time, and we both land all our head shots. Except my Mida is 3 damage nodes lower, and his is maxed out- He should beat me.

I think Iron Banner is more of a fantasy of what crucible could be.
