We were due for a 1v1

[quote]… except for SBMM environments, which are apparently too hard. Someone explain this to me. Someone explain how the sole logic of these arguments isn’t that you just feel entitled and don’t want other people to get the same rewards as you.[/quote] Pvp players w a 2+ KD, streamers and all those raiders with 1000+ clears need to be retired.

Who says these are even the same players? Pve sweats argue everything is too easy, gms this and last season will be/were a joke with a 40% damage reduction for one Pvp sweats don't like that thier improvement is now punished with MLG type tournaments in casual pvp modes

PvP discussions are completely separate from PvE discussions. The game being too easy in PvE has nothing to do with SBMM.

Since you’re a top 90% elo player, SBMM benefits you because you get paired with other blueberries. I’m not sure what your point is about the rewards though. If the game gave everyone the same rewards, then what incentive do you have to improve?

Everyone complains, casuals complained about having to kill a few champions

If you're not as good as me, why do you deserve the same rewards as me? If you're good at GM Nightfalls and I'm not, can I go ahead and get the same rewards as you? I feel, because I'm not good at PvE, that my Strike lobbies should drop adept weapons whiles yours shouldn't, because that's fair. Or at least add NPC SBMM into GM's - mine shoudl come with less champions, while your's has 3x the amount of champions. Same loot of course, but just easier for me because i'm not as good. Cool?

If someone is in the highest match making tier they should get better, more exclusive rewards than a .5 robot that plays 5 games a week

Sbmm is only truly fair when paired with tiered progression/rewards based on skill bracket. If bungie added this tiered system then i guarantee almost all of the anti-sbmm players would be content, the only one’s left to complain would be the stat padders who live in breath for their kd.

This post is a strawman. As someone who is considered a "sweat" Im 50/50 on sbmm and chmm, I like sbmm in some applications and I see all of its merits, but I will say that every gripe I have with it is related to the quality of lobby connections, not harder matches. Ive actually made multiple posts in the past advocating for sbmm but this is a problem that will always exist when it is implemented

You are mixing up your sweats. PVE seats complain about the game being to easy, PVP sweats complain about sbmm.

Good players dont waste their time in quickplay tbh. All the pvp players i know are only playing trials during the week ends, and private matches/ sweats during the week from time to time. (But most of the time they just play other games with a better pvp )

Bit of a misconception here. 1. The game is mind numbingly easy. All of destiny's "mechanics" are shoot a thing, stand in a circle, or throw/dunk a ball. 2. They don't like sbmm, in more casual game modes, because every match being a sweat fest isn't exactly fun. Most people of all skill levels agree with this

So, it's not about having stuff and not wanting others to have said same things. Take baseball as an Example. If my son wanted to play base ball, I'd let him. If he then came to me after his team lost and asked why the other side got a Trophy...it's because they won. I'd tell him if you want a Trophy...you need to increase your skill and get back up...get good. Then he does get good and now got his Trophy...he worked hard and grew. Now he asks why MLB gets money...we all know where this is going. You see, when it comes to things or activities that are harder...we want a more substantial reward so its more meaningful. Why do athletes train till their body bleeds and breaks? Why do Engineers make things more efficient? Why do Farmers grow crops? Because it's something they enjoy, it's something they strive to be better at because it's Long Term payoff. There's a heart breaking video I watched not to long ago where people in the Adult Entertainment Business actually regret their line of work. You see, they sought Short Term gain. They're now millionaires, yet highly depressed. Was it worth it? That money means nothing. They took the short route, the Path of least Resistance. The same can be said about Destiny. Some players are finding Destiny 2 easier with every passing day, that's the Long Term Gain. And to your Post on matching players of Similar Skill, that they hate it...it's not that at all. If you're in the MLB and after sweating it out with a Team with same skill,only for the Victor to get a LLB trophy. Is that fair? Then to have it, that LLB gets 50k$ for winning a game. LLB is profiting more then MLB. Higher Skilled Players want more Substantial Rewards for going against each other, and Control doesn't offer such a thing, and Survival ran out of Business. Control was a place that let HSP casually play. While you have average and below -blam!- to excel in the modes Designed to increase wanted SBMM moved from Survival...to control. Now they ask for Adept Loot to be made easier. Y'all want Short Term gain, and in the End it's....."oh ya I have this" while HSP are like "ya I got this after going against ZK, Frost, Vanguard". HSP appreciate the Rewards. The Reward holds a Value. It's like in "American Dad" when Rodger had trophies everywhere and Francene says "well, because you didn't earn them" "are you good at Bowling?" "The balls hurt my hands" "then you didn't earn it". Understand? Edit - it censored Refused?
