Trials Lighthouse Sherpas, Good or Bad?
Alright guys and girls, here is the deal, I have been posting of a few Trials Flawless Sherpa posts. I have a pretty high KD, a good medal score, and have been flawless almost 50 times. This attracted lots of people to reply to me.
I told them to all PM me and we could work out details, but after awhile I started getting hate messages from either "Elitists" or people who have tried and failed many times at Flawless. The messages said things like
"You're a scrub for doing carries, everyone needs to earn the Lighthouse with people on skill levels as themselves. If they have a 0.6, they play with maybe 0.8s and 0.7s. Stop doing carries, it's ruining trials"
Personally I think that everyone should have the chance to see the light of mercury at least once, no matter the skill level of the player.
What do you guys think of trials carries?
Discuss freely!
EDIT - If anyone wants to see mercury send GraffitiDrifter a friend request on Xbox One. I have about 50 lighthouse visits.

1 ReplySherpas are a good thing. They can train us scrubs to be better PvPers AND carry us to the Lighthouse.

I certainly don't need to be carried to the lighthouse, I've never been but only tried ToO once but didn't really enjoy it, I find it's real hard To go flawless, even though there are very good players out here saying they'll carry you to the lighthouse and we'll go flawless, that's what the other side is also saying once you enter ToO, I mean there has to be a little but of luck involved? Especially In round 8-9

1 ReplyI'm a bit indifferent. I appreciate the help that Lighthouse Sherpas give (unless i'm on the other side) but I believe that whoever is being carried needs to do some work as well.

1 ReplyIt's a game. Do what you want. Play with who you want. There are no rules.

4 RepliesTrials is a team effort.if u get carried maybe u are underestimating your skills because u had something to do with getting to the lighthouse to.not just the two guys u play with.. Folks aren't getting carried they are just playing with good players just like themselves. And whoever is using a last word and sniper kd will be higher than most

1 ReplyUr fine dude. Keep helping us less fortunate souls. Ignore that other nonsense. Ppl are just sad that they got stomped by a streamer doing a carry. I have. It sucks. Cerridius killed our entire team in 2.5 secs 3 rounds in a row. I never got a shot on him. He's pretty f'n good. I also know that carries or no carries he'd still be playing trials all weekend because he enjoys playing trials so who gives a shit. You're always going to run into someone better than you. That's the name of the game. I've been flawless once in yr two. Other than that never been over 6 wins. It's sweat city. But I don't blame it on carries. I blame it on lfg and the fact that I can't carry, I'm just not good enough.

1 ReplyI don't have a problem with it, it just annoys me when the people who get carried brags about going flawless then starts saying other people must of been flawless to play with them that's the only problem I have with it

1 ReplyIts great because people help each other and help build the community. If someone wants to help others get to a difficult place that requires a lot of work then thats great. If you dont like it then keep it to yourself

3 RepliesMy thing is why do people have such a problem with how someone plays a game that was bought with [b][u]THEIR[/u][/b] money. This tribalistic type of attitude that is exerted by those individuals is quite sad. Video games were meant to be enjoyed. If someone enjoys helping people through Trials who are you as a person to say otherwise?
