I honestly wouldn't know, I'm no where near the higher levels (I have a negative kd). The few time I've gone into trials it's been nothing but a snipe off - you never even get close enough to see what your opponents class is.
Sounds like I need to get into some high level fisty cuffs.

Trials is often dominated by snipers because of how good they are at shutting down revives. That being said, teams with good shotgunners are more likely to win. The highest level of play is sweats or scrims as some say. Most often you'll see a team of 2 warlocks & 1 hunter, where 2 are using shotties & 1 is sniping. Voidwalker, storm, nighstalker, & blade are really all anyone uses. Then for primaries you'll see eyasluna, tlw, or thorn. Not many other primaries are used unless it's a god roll hc or pulse.
