Hey everyone! Since I've recently been getting into the competitive(Sweaty) scene, I thought I'd list the most commonly used rules by the best of the best. Based on my understanding of competitive PvP, here are the rules we follow.
GENERAL
1. No heavy
2. No special exotics
3. No Exotic Armor
4. No subclass duplicates
5. No intentional suicides
BANNED ABILITIES
1. Backstab
2. Unstoppable
BANNED WEAPONS
1. Pocket Infinity
2. Ice Breaker
3. Sidearms
BANNED WEAPON PERKS
1. Final Round on Snipers and Shot Package (No longer relevant)
2. Rangefinder
3. Luck in the Chamber
GAMEMODES
3v3 (Skirmish, Salvage & Elimination)
DISCLAIMER: Based on constant feedback, these rules are subjected to change. Let me know if I missed any. Fight on Guardians!
-
Is this still the common rules?
-
Ban sidearms? I use them all the time, never used the ammo glitch
-
What about Rangefinder on aprimaey such as PDX?
-
Again what kind of Hipster douche bags come up with these rules and terms for things. Sweats? Do these people lack air conditioning. The only rules you need to follow are the ones put forth by Bungie end of discussion.
-
Rules are ridiculous!
-
Sweaties are fuking stupid.
-
The most important one is waving off heavy, the rest are rarely followed.
-
It's cute reading these comments. Who cares? This isn't League of Legends folks.
-
I feel bad for people who play "sweats". Destiny is not a platform for any serious competitive play no matter how many things your little community restricts. It's not even fun to watch either.
-
my how the rules have changed (unless these are just wrong)
-
This list isn't even correct tbh
-
Need two for sweats. Gt same as inv
-
If someone has a problem with the fact that you can't use sidearms, icebreaker, or invective, play a scrim with your own friends and make it a rule that you can. Simple
-
So is hawkmoon banned?
-
Use Thorn, Matador, Feltwinters, Radegast and every other op y1 gun but most important: USE THORN
-
Why not exotic secondary?
-
? You can use exotic armour and weapons. Its up to your op to choose to use them as well.
-
I hate thorn I use lastword and her benevolevce
-
No warlock banned ability? (Touch of Flame, Farther range thunderstrike, Viking Funeral, Ignite?) The list could go on. But no backstab and unstoppable and why are special exotics banned?
-
Why is pocket infinity banned anyways?
-
Wait, so they banned Unstoppable but not Touch of Flame, Shadestep, or Keen Scout?!
-
And no black shield.

Wow thanks bungie boot my third 2 times in a row in trials get rid of the -blam!-ing errors in this game. It's been out for three years is it that hard to fix! Me and my second had to try and clutch our last game and we made it 4-2 they supered all three rounds and won then we got t-bagged....... AMAZING GAME.... I seriously want to burn bungie to the ground after this one. Plus we all were green baring the whole time....
-
As far as I know, LiTC and BackStab are allowed again.
-
No exotics period... But they won't... Can't let go of their best weapons
-
Sidearms are allowed but you cant switch them to your secondary of choice untill special ammo spawns. As long as your not getting shotgun/snipe ammo before other players than its not a noticeable advantage.
