Thank god trials is back. Saw a lot of streamers were getting tough matchmaking, but my group must have gotten lucky. Got flawless on our second card.

Everything I've heard is that it's super sweaty though

I used to not be good at all. But I just practiced a lot and I've gotten miles better, but we definitely are not good enough to carry lol. There a couple guys who are platknum ELO in my clan, but I'm only like 1,300.

We lost a match pretty early on and I think just got a bit lucky with matchmaking.

Update on trials success:


There hasn't been anymore. Since making it on the second card yesterday, I've managed to get to 8-0 four times. All four times we got rocked in game nine.

I know but strikes from 350 to 360 weren't bad at all. I even got a key to drop but used it to get grasp of malok.

The real grind is 365 to 385 or 400. It's been a bitch and finding artifacts blows. No one wants to do CoO. I haven't moved this week from 365.

Well it's based on wins which relies pretty heavily on skill.

I know man they bring out these acronyms like we know.

I'm starting to get tired of the game. The grind to 385 is awful unless you've saved up a shitload of strange coins to load up on heavy synths to rank up with factions. I just don't have time.

Not really. It relies partially on wins, but it's still a coin flip. Much of the algorithm is still connection based for trials.

Deff not SBMM.

We didn't play a ton but we either played gods or scrubs this weekend when in Trials. It was weird, not many matches were interesting.

I played somewhere around 160 matches and somewhat had the same experience. Pretty much 5-0'ed everyone until about win 6-7 then it would get a bit tougher.

Did get our asses kicked by one team last night though. I'm talking like a two minute annihilation. Just had no answer.
