Unconventional PvP Fights Are Fair
So I'm a regular listener/watcher of the Planet Destiny podcasts, they're fun dudes, but the past few weeks in PvP I've heard people there (guests and hosts, more recently nkutch and Teft) complaining about how playing passive and going invis aren't fair.
Sure, they're unconventional but that's what makes this game great - you can fight in more ways than one. Maybe you and your team aren't good with doing direct fights, maybe you're better playing passive and witty: That should NOT be a problem.
It's not cheating to be passive, it's not cheating to use invisibility to your advantage, it's not cheating to use your bubble to your advantage. It's not like many teams can pull off unconventional plays against experienced players anyway!
This isn't a boxing match, this is warfare. Anything goes. So before calling players out on their strategy, ask yourself, are you just mad because their train of thought is different than yours? Confining the community to one playstyle is what's unfair. A win is a win, unless you're literally cheating (ie head glitching.)

Agreed. Maybe Bungie should just develop a Crucible mode called "Vanilla": No level advantages No supers No grenades Everyone gets the same armor, shader, and emblem Everyone gets the same weapon - primary only, no special, no heavy Everyone gets he same perks on armor, weapon, and subclass Matches are formed that contain only the same class. Titans fight Titans, Hunters fight Hunters, and Warlocks fight Warlocks. Arena style map No fire teams Only get a loot drop if you win That completely levels the playing field for everyone, gives those who don't have that one special weapon or those who complain about OP this and OP that a place to go sort out who has the "true skill", and only rewards those with the "true skill". [spoiler]You are right - this sounds completely boring and stupid. I am an idiot for even suggesting this[/spoiler]
