You are on the lower side in power so you would have been potentially fighting both a skill gap and a power advantage gap. Witherhoard works pretty well in control even though not too many use it. Putting it on ground and getting a few shots in even if you die typically results in person backing into it after battle and dying to it and more so if placed on control points. Works best when hit directly or aimed slightly behind them imo particularly since most of players seem to play hunters and the better ones tend to run when about to die. It does have a side effect of hate messages though as I got quite a few when working on quest back during arrivals.

I appreciate you trying to help me. I played with lower power before especially when that Iron banner medallion was around. I liked playing with less power as it was more challenging. I played last season as well on a more competitive powerlevel and had similar issues. If you look at my last games played, sure, I didn’t get many kills but my team mates didn’t either. Usually the first three of the opponents team got maybe twice as many kills as those leading my team. I want to go into Ironbanner and have fun but I’m warlock dash and Titan slid all the time and it’s just not fun to ply like that. Hell last season I used Jötunn as I belobe fusion rifle kills were required for the Iron banner quest. It felt horrible to use but got me kills more reliably then playing sensibly (at least according to my definition). In one of my matches I got killed by the same hunter 3 times with their super. 3 times. That just sucks. He ended with 35 kills, my teams highest was in the low tens I believe. It just isn’t fun to play at all for me. And that’s without even looking at power disparity or stasis sadly

Unfortunately removal of SBMM created issues like that that are far more common. I am surprised that they don’t at least try to use SBMM on the groups in freelance after it used CBMM to put the 12 of them together so it isn’t as one sided by making sure the top 2 or 3 aren’t on one of the 2 teams. I have not had too many issues with CBMM, but have noticed I typically am on losing team a substantial amount of the time even though I don’t recall that being super different on SBMM. I also have a bad habit of going into pvp during stuff like iron banner and using random stuff to complete catalysts or quests. I had some success on one of last iron banners when I played my hunter using the stasis slow dodge with bombadiers and got a surprising amount of kills with the explosion since slow made sure they wouldn’t be dodging it. I think you were a hunter main so that may be of some use to you as well since using the dodge that grants melee with this setup gives you a melee to use to freeze them assuming you didn’t die when you dodged which was frequently my issue due to shotguns, but the good thing was that explosion did about 100 damage and usually meant they died provided you hit them with a couple shots.

Again thank you. I might try this load out if I ever feel like going back in. I miss those close matches sbmm sometimes provided. Games were more intense but I enjoyed that for my part. Whereas now it’s typically you either get stomped or decimate the opponents. I don’t find that fun at all.
