Is their connection faster? Are their controllers better? It's really to the point where it feels like every single one of them are cheating. How can the difference be SO bad. Are they cheating? Please explain like I'm 5.
Also if you (Bungie) can predict who is going to win the match before it starts then why doesn't everyone have a 50% win rate? Losing 10 matches in a row is a bad experience.
When I'm talking about matchmaking I'm mostly talking about control/iron banner.

Ppl are complicated, and have different playstyles, absolutely any measure of skill will be skewed and biased towards some kind of play style. One type could hard counter another in a way MMR doesn't account for, a player could be playing bad for the day or using "fun" weapons, which are less effective. That's not even accounting for sandbox or mode specific factors.

Until they immediately die and quit to dashboard.
