Why stats on classes don't determine how good a subclass is.
Right, So looking at many topics on here, so many people are saying things like "Bladedancers are the best subclass, look at the stats!!". Now, Just think for a second. How many new people on Destiny pick their subclass because of the super? I know I used to pick Gunslinger for PvP because I knew it was possibly 3 easy kills! Same with Striker, and I started my Warlock as a Voidwalker because I knew it was easy to get super kills. And which subclasses seemed the hardest to get kills? well, that would be Defender for the Titans, Sunsinger for the Warlock, and yes. Bladedancer for the Hunter. yet these 3 are the ones with the best average K/D's.
I'm not saying the stats are unreliable. But just think. In a normal 6v6 gamemode (Not trials or Iron Banner), Which subclasses for each class do you see most? Personally, I see Striker and Sunbreaker Titans about equally, rarely Defenders. I see Stormcaller and Voidwalker Warlocks, still a few Sunsingers, but few compared to the other subclasses. And I see loads of Nightstalkers, a lot of Gunslingers... and rarely any Bladedancers (maybe because they're invisible XD)
My point being, maybe the stats that suggest Bladedancers, Sunsingers and Defenders have the highest K/D's and win ratios aren't because skilled players are using them, but because weaker players aren't using them as much as other subclasses.
[i] Side Note: I didn't actually research the "facts", Many threads said the exact same statistics so I took it as they did research themselves. If you find the stats or anything saying otherwise, please leave the link[/i]
