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.

I just wish we didn't have to go 7 straight wins for flawless. On average I'm not resetting the card anymore than I was before (2-3 times tops), but last week was BRUTAL. Like 13 resets for flawless because I got so many matches where either my team I swear didn't have thumbs or the enemy was constantly cheaters or 5-0 tryhards. Seriously, I don't care how bad the MM is, I shouldn't wind up in a match where I go 18/5 or something like that and both my teammates went 2/10 and 2/9 while every enemy player went anywhere from even to 14/5. I have no idea how we won that match.
