Please give us the option to do this solo or go back to the way it used to be. If a friend of mine saw I was doing the Weekly Heroic Strike solo, they could hop in and I would have no problem doing the Heroic strike with them. Now I have to carry two randoms in a matchmade game. Half the time, they aren't even there. Just AFK and moving their character every once in a while. The players don't even realize that there is a burn (this week is Void and I'm sure that they still haven't figured it out) yet they still have equipped weapons that will be a non factor. It was much more fun and challenging doing the strike solo. Now it's a chore to carry randoms.
It's embarrassing having to play along side such incorrigible players. They simply should not be on my fireteam.
Edit: I play the Weekly Heroic Strike at level 30.
Also since it appears people think I would like playing with AFK players because then I would be solo--that's absolutely not the case. They are AFKing and given a free ride to loot. I shouldn't be the one to give them free loot.
This matchmaking system is broken and exploited.

We carried a kid with a Gjallahorn... let that sink in. This tool refused to shoot at all, the entire strike, until the boss was at one third health.
