Last weekend was my first taste of the new trials system. And I love it. I went to the lighthouse four times. I felt like I could focus on my improvement more without worrying about a streak as much. And the loot is generous. But what I really love is the boatload of materials you get. It rewards your time and effort a lot better. Now I'm very much looking forward to the weekend. Yes, it still wasn't a cakewalk.
You will have losses, but you won't be out of the running. This is what I imagine trials being and should have been years ago.
I know my 2 cents is late, but I'm glad I can speak positively about trials for once.

My only complaint is i hate having a 7 win streak. I prefer the blue glow, but thats tied to 6 streak. Once you hit 7, you're locked to the red glow. Before it sucked because you had to run the the respective emblem to get your desired glow. Now you dont even geg a choice.
