It has always been my opinion that Iron Banner should be a challenging, yet rewarding, experience for those that enter into it. It should be a refection of a players skill as they take their best gear and set themselves against other players who are doing the same. Now every month the mode changes and we now have three modes, (Control, Clash and Rift) cycling between them as the months go by. Now I bring your attention to the latest mode which Bungie introduced in the February update called Freelance. In response to solo players complaining about going up against fire teams and getting trounced Bungie introduced this mode. What is interesting about Freelance is not only can fire teams not enter but the match type changes each game depending on whether you are playing 3v3 or 6v6. In terms of individual skill this means that you have to be flexible as it is both the map and the match type that is changing, providing the player with quite a bit of challenge. Which is always a good thing. What I am getting at is what if Bungie made it so that in Iron Banner each game changed like it does in Freelance 6v6 so that the matches cycle between Control, Clash and Rift on a match by match basis as opposed to changing monthly. Yes, you would still get to take fire teams but it would make things a lot more interesting as players would have to be flexible in how they approach each game since they do not know what they are going to be facing and would thus be a better refection of their skill. In addition to this it would also give Bungie a chance to introduce some new Iron Banner weekly and daily bounties such as the following.
