Why do people try hard in Iron Banner??

I'm not much of a complainer. Nor do I lack skill. I am an average player. Not the best not the worst. But it sucks when I just wanna enjoy so PvP and everyone wips out Thorn and TLW. I mean in regular PvP I seem them quite a bit, but it is no problem. In IB, every goes try hard. Not just those guns, but the way they play. Regular PvP is more chill. Here people are like on thier toes to make sure they can prove who try hards the most? Why??

    People want to win and want to win quicker than others if they're grinding out 3 characters.

      I don't understand what is hard to understand about "why"? Iron Banner is an EVENT which is designed around bringing the best out of it's guardians. It is an optional game-mode as the other crucible games are still available if it doesn't fit your style of play. You play Iron Banner, you are going there to win, to increase XP and to rank up. You only get points if you win, so no one wants to lose. Losing is just a waste of time.

    • If you use a good gun you're trying hard? Kinda the opposite, right?

    • That 10-0 kills bounty really annoys me because I'll get to about 7 or so and get wrecked by a super. There's just nothing you can do you have to camp hard or die.

      • Besides ToO, Iron Banner is the only game type in the crucible that winning matters. Other game types win or kid you have the same shot at getting the rewards either way. /thread

      • I hate the Thorn and TLW. I use legendary primaries, and when I took out Thorn for one game I finished the 10 kill streak bounty

      • Winning here has a purpose, the better rewards. I love it, more fun, more madness and this time a huge variety of weapons equipped by players. I'm doing fine so far with my Loner.Rebel and Timur's Lash.

      • Because you have to win. No win, no rep. You must be trying pretty hard yourself if you went out of your way to make a forum about it. They might just be better then you man.

      • Why would you play in Iron Banner if you didn't want to win? In my case, I don't bother, since I know I won't win enough to get anywhere. I am lousy at PvP. I read how OP shoulder charge, Thorn and shotguns with shot package are. So, I went into Crucible with my striker, with Thorn, Secret Handshake (shot package) and Truth equipped. My k/d was a lot WORSE than usual over the course of five matches. So, I guess I don't have any skill when it comes to using stuff that's so OP it doesn't require skill.

      • I literally have NEVER (NEVER in caps because I feel like it) have a problem with hand cannons, blink or fellwinters lie. You people complain they have no skill, yet you can't beat them. I destroy them all with hopscotch pilgrim, red death or bad juju and never have an issue. Only people who call people scrubs are scrubs. (I have only used Patience and Time and Hopscotch Pilgrim this IB and I've averaged a 2.0 k/d) Git Gud Scrubs Yours sincerely Someone who is annoyed because you won't stop complaining about everything.

            • So many stupid responses to this stupid post i don't know where to begin. People are going to use the guns that give them the best advantage to win/ do well. It is not hard to outgun thorn or the tlw, sit back a little us a pulse rifle. As far as the blink shotguns, hunters really have no other choice, all their jumps suck, golden gun is terrible, as well as the rest of that tree. What would those complaining about blink shotguns have people do, sit back with snipers, reach the time limit every time and make it take that much longer to grind out to rank 5, no make the game go fast so we can stop playing this lagtastic IB. Last, the one idiot who was posting that every game is lag switchers, you are a complete moron, not even going to address that with a response.

            • Assuming I win every game and complete every bounty, how many hours would it take to get from rank 3 to rank 5 while using bond, shader, emblem, and boon?

                    Dumb. Sorry. It is. The better you do the faster you rank, the less you have to play. Anyway, IB is always easier due to being saturated with people who never play and just want the light or gear
