I don't think I've said otherwise... (Destiny)

I do agree that Trials should be tough and the best rewards should go to the best players. If it was just a cake walk, it wouldn't be so sweet to make it to the lighthouse.

I feel like I have to keep defending the fact that I don't want to just "give away" the Lighthouse, because I keep hearing it reiterated that you all think "Trials should be tough and the best goes to the best"...as if I don't agree.

CougRon's Card-based matching idea doesn't change the available pool of players - Trials is STILL full of the top-tier players - it just changes around the order in which you play various teams, depending on how many games they've played. I still don't see how that fundamentally "ruins" the competitiveness of Trials. I honestly AM open to changing my mind, now that I've had some time to cool off, but I just don't see yet how the card-based matching is such an abomination.

FYI...
I played again last night, with Disciple and ZackDark, and we did a little better but neither of them had ever played on the map before so I didn't really expect to 'win big' (or at all). Maybe that map is just not the one for me (or them); we all commented how it's SUCH a sniper's-map, and none of us are especially great at twitch sniping. Oh well...
