Miserable Comp Experience

Long time Destiny player, First time posting! 2 seasons ago I set the goal of getting the Unbroken seal, especially with the introduction of the exciting freelance playlist - as I am a solo player. I love PvP, I’ve worked hard and hold a 1.4KDA, and I reached Legend in the last 2 seasons. I’m currently stuck in Mythic 2, and even though I’m so close, I don’t think I want to put myself through this grind anymore. The Glory system is fundamentally broken. Requiring win streaks to progress — not evaluations of performance— is the most soul-crushing progression I’ve ever seen. Especially when it’s not uncommon to load in with uneven teams, have teammates leave, network errors (beaver, anteater, “insert animal here”), matchmake with teammates ranked much lower than I. It’s maddening to me that this hasn’t been addressed, that any of these problems out of my control will result in a loss, forfeit my streak, lower my rank, and undo literal hours of work. It makes me feel cursed. And furthermore, if the rank system is not used to determine skill, and instead of a secret back end skill rating is, what is the point of the penalizing me Glory points on losses? Why not adopt the Gambit system and reward points on wins and nothing on losses? It really sucks, I’m so close to my goal of the Unbroken seal, but it no longer feels worth it to punish myself through this process. This game should be fun, and the game itself IS fun, but this arbitrary pointless grind is not.

    I played comp religiously last week and I can vividly remember about three or four games where I had 20 plus defeats with a 2.0 KD on the game, but STILL LOST. I played better than everybody in the lobby and somehow that warrants me losing points? Give me a break. I started at like 4980 and dropped all the way to 4200. That was the most soul crushing experience I think I’ve ever had. Haven’t even gotten it all back, I’ve stagnated around 4600 give or take. I find it hard to jump back when it’s clear as day matchmaking is rigged to keep everybody at 50 percent win loss. I shouldn’t say clear as day, that’s literally how matchmaking works. Just looks at my recent game history, win, loss, win, loss, win, loss. It’s gotten to the point I can literally predict the outcome of my next game based on the my current. 4-0 blowout? Get ready for a stomping next game. 0-4 blowout on the other side? The game gives you a free gimme game as an apology.
