The Trials begin on Friday and last till Tuesday. For those who have played Crucible often, you know the stress of the Crucible and it's unbalanced gameplay. But add a exclusive 3v3 skirmish SnD/SnR event that requires you to not lose three times, which ends your trials passage card if it does come to that, and you have yourself a challenging and nerve-racking game mode. Even the best Guardians out there have something they hate in Crucible. Imagine some of these examples of what I'm worried about.
- A team that all use the same weapons. (Popular guns like Thorn, Felwinters Lie, Red Death, Jolders Hammer, Hawkmoon, Last Word, etc)
- A team that runs the same class type.
- A team that is all Level 34 vs a lower level team (even though I'm a level 34 Warlock so I guess it would be if my friends aren't 34)
- A team that hides majority of the time (I honestly wouldn't care much but hey, it's considered a strategy apparently).
Even though you only face a fireteam once and get matched up with a new team [b](remember, ToO does not have matchmaking so you'll need to find a group to play with in a fireteam of 3)[/b], these are just a few I am concerned about. But this isn't about my fears, this thread was designed to share yours.
[b]what is your fear(s) for the upcoming Trials of Osiris?[/b]

[b]Edit:[/b] 200+ replies and I am already seeing that many are nervous about the following mostly.
#1 Lag (though this one is true, Bungie said something about better connection or something similar to that for the Trials)
#2 Thorn (oh, the irony)
#3 Felwinters ([b]super[/b] ironic)
#4 Sniper Rifles w/ Final Round (Oh snap. Forgot about that mess of a storm)
#5 Blink Shotgun Combo (again, ironic...)
#6 Disconnection (this actually will only be a problem if you get disconnected from the entire servers which returns you to the title screen. If you get removed during the match, don't panic. Bungie will be testing their new match recovery system for ToO. You'll get a message that will ask if you want to attempt to reconnect to the match)

2 RepliesMy biggest fear is never finding a team to play on. Still don't have one. I'll keep looking, though. If anyone wants to adopt a PS4 32 Warlock, drop me a line.

And that damn self res, you think you got the win and all of a sudden they're back lol

I'm just having fun with it. It's intense as hell cuz you can't lose. we had a crazy one yesterday where we were tied 4-4 and both my guys went down and the other team of 3 came looking for me. Just as they were coming up on me I dropped fist of havoc while they shot me... All 4 of us went down at the same time and we had to run it again. It's a blast, hopefully eventually I'll find a team I can go 9-0 with. I just gotta find the time to get to level 34 and then jump back in and get better

Sucking eternally.

Going up against try harders. I'm pretty decent in normal PvP, lately I've fallen out of the loop but last IB I topped the scoreboards pretty much every time. I hate going up against my own kind, and I myself have been purposefully waning myself off of exotic primaries, but I know I'm going to be forced to use one in Trials.
-
Trying to find a team with my track record is hard. I tried earlier and got 6 wins and lost. Want to try again tomorrow but I don't know if anyone will take me lol

None, I'm confident enough right now that I can take on 99% of teams in my region.

Tactics? Common sense tells you - if they are all using shotguns then snipe, if the opposite then rush them
