Playing against Ms5oooWatts taught me something about Crucible

Got a match with her. Was like cool, been winning games left and right, let’s see how good she really is. As I figured with “big” youtubers, they ONLY run the OP stuff. Kinetic: Chaperone Energy: Luna’s Howl Power: Crooked Fang Super: Spectral Blades Now my setup- Kinetic: Hazard of the Cast (switched to Tigerspite) Energy: Wavesplitter Power: Edge Transit Super: Golden Gun (6 Shooter) Clash Results- Enemy Team: 97 Top Player: Ms5oooWattsUS (36 - 12) Friendly Team: 63 Top Player: An0nYm0uSxJAMSK8 (Me) (26 - 18) Now.... I’m using a higher skill tier loadout. She is running a lower skill tier loadout. I don’t have Luna’s because I didn’t want to grind for it in the Sweatfest called Competitive. I can just imagine what life would be like if I ran OP weapons like that. I mean, I can’t say she isn’t a BAD player at all, but she’s not good either. She is on par with me. We battled it out a ton, most of the time I kicked her arse more than she did with me. But when she would pull out her Luna’s Howl, she’d always 3-tap me. That, my friends, is the problem. We have to grind our hearts out to get one of the strongest weapons in the Crucible. Why is that? I think they need to make the Pinnacle weapons a trophy, not a bulldozer. The new Pinnacle weapons for Season 5 are exactly how they should be. They should be there to show off to others, not overpower them. I look at these new weapons and would easily use them for a bit, then throw them on the shelf. I got the Broadsword (finally) and realize this gun struggles to take out players. The only way it’s good is when you activate the Desperado perk. This isn’t a low skill tier weapon, nor is it high. It’s just right. And that’s all it needs to be. The Vanguard Pinnacle Fusion Rifle is only good when you get a kill with the first shot, but is gone until your next reload. The Gambit Pinnacle Weapon just fires faster each time you get a kill, and increases as you stack Rampage. Even the new Crucible Pinnacle Weapon is a grenade launcher that fires a micro missile in a straight line stupidly fast. These weapons are all trophies, not bulldozers like Luna’s Howl/Not Forgotten, AND THAT’S OKAY! So Bungie, if you see this, FIX LUNA’S HOWL/NOT FORGOTTEN! A Precision Frame hand cannon with a perk like Magnificent Howl shouldn’t 3 shot someone within 2 seconds! Especially when it’s in the hands of a skilled player. Update: We’re close to trending! Keep the hate coming! I have the utmost respect to the few that replied positively! And I have even more respect to Ms5oooWatts. She is a great player. I bet if she were on my team, we’d have been competing to who could get the most kills before we win. (Obviously I would be the winner! Lol) So if you see this, GG! And can I get a shoutout in the chat!?

Its totally a ridiculous comment along with extreme shade because of her loadout. (Which she earned) Because you cant get Luna everyone else should be on some sort of bell curve because they have it? You want some sort of pity points for using a non-poular loadout. Good for you bro, you're a real -blam!-ing hero. What stupid, toxic, logic.
