How Do you find / select team mates for ToO?
I'm trying to pick the brains of people who regularly use LFG for Trials as I find Stats and Emblems a nightmare to Navigate. I have a clan but they don’t like trials as much as I do so I’m often playing the forum lottery to find cool teams for competitive runs.
Personally I tend to avoid teams who demand an emblem or threaten to kick for certain things more because I find emblems are a bit pretentious and anyone who threatens to kick tend to be a bit of an idiot and not someone I want to spend an hour listening to.
Can anyone explain to me what ELO is in layman's terms and what its significance is? [url]https://guardian.gg/en/faq[/url] full definition
Secondly which ELO would you use? Destiny Tracker or Guardian GG?
Do you think DTR Level is important? If so why?
What is the minimum K/D you would accept in your teams?
Do you scrutinise stats / weapons / sub -classes before adding or inviting someone to your team?
I appreciate everyone will have their own mechanisms for this so I am keen to hear these with a bit of substance.
I'm looking forward to hearing your feedback and thoughts on whats successful for you and why

ELO is highly based on your wins, not so much k/d.
Beat players with higher elo and it jumps about 3-8 points.
Beat players with higher elo while on a streak pass 9-0 and it jumps about 5-10 points.
Lose to players with lower elo and you get hit by about 10-20 points depending on the difference.
Best websites for assessing your opposition and potential teammates performances

Its good to see this forum being so helpful and non toxic, I think that's largely because most of the people who have contributed to this still actually play the game.
Keep up the good work.,

Personally I don't care for ELO because it's so heavily win based and based on who you end up against. If you consistently end up against players with a lower ELO than yours, then you'll never really get anywhere with it. I suppose if you were only looking at Trials ELO it could be okay, but overall ELO is bad imo as it will inevitably be mediocre if your a solo player such as myself who has to deal with random terrible teams (I mostly play Control). Then again, it doesn't really matter for me anyway since I no longer do Trials. Since I haven't done Trials in Y2, I don't have a Trials ELO. My ELO is top 10% Platinum 2 on Destiny Tracker or 1354 on guardian.gg. I'd still consider k/d the more important stat. Especially Trials k/d. Plus you gotta have a mic.
