[quote]So I am curious if you ran all your games solo or ran with a stack, possibly a combination of both?[/quote] I ran most solo, probably at least 150 of the 196. I ran about 15 with between 4-6 and another 10-12 with 3, the rest of the difference in a group of 2. [quote]What was your overall record? 196 is a lot of games. I played 209 games and went 98-111. I might have played 10 at most with someone else and none more than 4 in the stack.[/quote] Record was 110-96 [quote]I would say that the experience wasn't horrible but I was chasing after triumphs - IB and general Crucible. I would say that the biggest disappointment was that I never got the 20 kills without a loss, for that matter looking back, I didn't really see anyone else get it either.[/quote] People weren't getting medals that are supposed to be rare and hard to achieve because without the cheap matchmaking of QP, they're actually rare and hard to achieve. [quote]Bigger than that I didn't get the 7 kills without a loss, I have a clanmate that got it and not seeing all the records yet, would bet 5 players I played with or against got it in the 209 games I was a part of.[/quote] If you're talking 7th column, then yeah that's supposed to be really difficult to achieve as well. It's another medal that's been cheapened by QP mm. [quote]I have never gotten the 7th column metal, there was one for IB I didn't get it either - based on sbmm, this was my best shot. The most I got was 5 and that was by pure luck, got 2 with a grenade (I think) and then used nova warp. Upon the ending of the match got 3 quick kills taking the total to 5. Don't know if there would have been the opportunity to get it had the match continued but it is what it is.[/quote] You've got it backwards. SBMM doesn't make easier games, it makes more balanced and fair games. QuickPlay without sbmm is where players go for those medals because they can get matched against players so much lower skill, they have no business playing then. [quote]But where I end - according to Tracker I am a platinum player - that's right a 98-111 losing record in season 5 and I am platinum - can you explain that to me please? I don't know what Guardian.gg has me as nor do I know how to figure it out.[/quote] Destinytracker's ELO stats are not good. DTR resets stats every season and so with how they run their ELO, it can get way too skewed. Guardian.gg doesn't reset. It's cumulative over the entirety of D2 and so tends to give a better picture of where players really are. According to ggg, you're a silver player in pretty much every playlist. The site got jacked up Saturday and stopped showing player ELO'S within games, but going to your games before that, they're basically all against bronze, silver and gold opponents. Went through 63 of your Titan's games and in them you came across 9 Platinum and 1 Diamond player. https://guardian.gg/2/profile/4611686018469638646/icecoldkidd Just pick which character and set the filter to iron banner. Also, if you're on Xbone I'm pretty sure we played each other last week. If not it was someone with a very similar gt
