"Good competition" generally means facing an opponent of fair and equal ability. You want a game mode that caters to the 7% who want to enjoy something they're really good at. I'm all for that. Like I don't care if the top 7% get a special emblem that has the words "Top 7% in PvP". It would be Bungie's job to make that a game mode that appropriately fits Destiny. Spitballing here, make it private, with a small additional fee. The fact of the matter is, at the moment, it's hypocritical to say you want a place for highly skilled players to show off and PROVE their skill... But yet, NOT want skill-based matchmaking. Because as it stands, Trials of Osiris is a public game mode for all people who bought House of Wolves. It's public. Meaning anybody can play. You want a place for the top 7% to earn bragging rights. But because Trials of Osiris is public, and because it does not matchmake based on skill, getting to the lighthouse CAN mean your team is as amazing as you claim... But it doesn't necessarily mean so either. It COULD also mean you bought all the boons, had one match forgiven, and had the last half of your scorecard be up against players who just bought the game. It's not really certain. Luck is more involved than you should want if you desire something completely skill-based. Skill-based matchmaking would reduce the amount of luck factored in, which IS what you should want by your logic. You want a place for people to really EARN bragging rights. I want competition that is relative to the skill level of the players. Skill-based matchmaking helps both of what we want.
