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.,

I play with many different people with a wide range of skill levels, on good days and bad days. By not boosting and constantly try harding, most of my non-objective stats aren't anything to go on about. At the same time, I got to play Smoke 420 n crew in ToO a few weeks back (we lost 5-2, one teammate gave up before it started..anyway..), but it was a great match and I managed to go 7-7 against him while playing basically 2v3. Long story short, underestimating a 0.9 KD will get you blink/shotty'd in the face.
