Crucible matchmaking is different and worse
I know what everyone is going to say - "population is down" - "matchmaking is always bad" - no, this is different. Something is going on. Very good players are getting matched with very bad players, and of course lobby balancing feels random AT BEST.
Just had a match where the efficiencies of one team ranged from 1.7 to 12.5 and the other ranged from .4 to .9. It was a pointless match. Nobody learned anything, the outcome was a foregone conclusion before it even began.
What's going on?

I quit playing Trials for the week but normal crucible is like 6v6 Trials at the moment. Maybe I should just stop playing crucible at all. Players I fight it feels like they don’t miss any head shot. They pre fire coming around corners and doing damage to you before you can hit them while they don’t exactly know where you are yet. You die in like 0.5 seconds… while it feels like you almost have to empty half a clip before they die. And on a roaming super you just die so fast from 1 player while if they spawn their supers they are barely dying. Yesterday I played an impossible game. I main a hunter and played a team of titans and warlocks… barricades, overshields and rifts all the time. It was just impossible.
