only 0.8% will reach the lighthouse
OK I am the first to admit that I am not awesome at math. However, I did some fast calculations over how many teams you will need to be better than, in order to go flawless (with boons).
You need 7 wins in order to go flawless, with boons. If the system will put you against teams with same scorecard as you have (ex: 5 Wins 0 losses versus 5 wins 0 losses team), the numbers of teams you will evidently need be better than is approximately this:
1 win - 1 team
2 wins - 2 teams (that team + the team they beat)
3 wins - 4 teams
4 wins - 8 teams
5 wins - 16 teams
6 wins - 32 teams
7 wins - 64 teams
in total 127 teams. 1/127 = 0.0079. 0.0079 x 100 = 0.8%
So according to my lolish calculations, only 0.8% of the trials teams will get flawless :). Opinions?
Edit: This seems accurate if ppl only try once and doesnt meet same team several times. Though, the mercy boon is not considered in the calculation. The numbers are also not correct if people with same amount of wins, but with losses are matched against you..
Still pretty interresting. I think going to the lighthouse will be considerably harder at y2.

Damn.. looks like I'm part of the 0.8%? Damn I'm good lol.

1 ReplySo if 0.8% of us will make it to the Lighthouse atleast once, does that mean 0.4% of us made it there twice, 0.2% made it there three times, and so on?

12 RepliesWent flawless x 3 first day (yesterday). Helped out a friend finish Oryx on hard (knocked out the hard raid on all of my characters before Trials of Osiris came out to focus on it) for free. No rewards or anything, just my time was taken (haha get it?). Two of the guys from that raid wanted to do Trials and so I did it with them. Went flawless for the 4th time just now and it's only the second day of Trials of Osiris lol. If you look at my Warlock's history you would see that we didn't use a loss boon (no mercy'd) at all. We won every match. It was a good day. I love raids and I love pvp.

I was stupid when I done my first run...we had agreed not to buy an boons and just play for fun...2 teammates bought all the boons without telling me so after our 7th win in a row bam they were done and I had 3 games left...and I was host...so we were only playing against people who were 6-0. Anyway we redone it and holy shit was the last 3 games difficult. 4-4 it was mayhem clash for the capture zone. And last game was 2 hammers and a self res...literally 15 kills within the first round everyone had they're super XD it was hectic

2 RepliesI actually think it's pretty random until the last couple of games, it works well though I've seen a lot of player with negative KDs with the flawless so the matchmaking must be working

Actually just went flawless for the first time in year 2 (several times year 1) about an hour ago. I'm happy :)

Good. The 1% > the 99%. You're all expendable.

1 ReplyLet's find out how many of those who go flawless FARTED during their passage. If a man farts on average 14 times a day and a lady 11, we get an average of 12.5 farts per day. Assuming the farts are evenly spaced we get 0.52 farts per hour. A flawless run takes about 1 1/2 hours so if we divide 0.52 by half x 3 [for 3 half hours] we get 0.78 farts in the average flawless run. Mathematical!

As you point out yourself, your model assumes teams only have one attempt at flawless and don't bother trying again that weekend. You'd need the full stats of how many teams persevere to reach a decent approximation.

yeah thats very lolzy kid good try
