We need to stop players from leaving games, and then see if 6 stacks continue to have an advantage. SBMM has already solved some of the problems associated with 6 stacks, and quitter-prevention will help even more. 1) If SBMM really does match based off the highest "skill" member of your fireteam, then fireteams should have a lower average "skill" than the other team. - However, 6 stacks are a real problem when every player on the team is in the highest skill bracket. Now, they have better communication and coordination without being disadvantaged with a lower average "skill". Imo, this scenario is the real problem. 2) I've noticed that players consistently leave games against stacks. Once Bungie implements a penalty for leaving games, I suspect 6 stacking will be less effective. - We should wait and see how things play out for stacks with a rule against quitting games in place. EDIT: I didn't realize that teams matched based off of Fireteam Host skill rather than the player with the highest "skill". Until this is fixed, 6-stacking in Crucible will be even WORSE than last season. Sorry for my mistake. I had too much faith in Bungie. We can't implement Quitter-Prevention until Fireteams are placed in the same skill bracket as their highest player. It's not fair to players who face teams abusing this OBVIOUS EXPLOIT. I mean c'mon Bungie. You match players in Trials based off the player with the most wins on a card, so why is Control different? SMH
