This is by far one of the WORST Trials experiences I have ever had. Everyone on the other team acts extremely coordinated without even being in game chat, yet the teammates I always get are acting like they've never played the game before. Heroes run off and think they can take on the entire enemy team by themselves (to no surprise, they die). One dude had even stopped mid round and was IN HIS MENU! This is not enjoyable at all.
Trials is endgame. It should be about teamwork and build synergy. Sure, matchmaking seems to have been a good thing for duos and solos who simply want to play Trials, but an entire separate playlist is too far. I don't know if it's just the matchmaking for Freelance isn't dialed in all the way, but rolling solo in either playlist feels the exact same.
Please don't make this a permanent change. Implement a harsher penalty for backing out of matches and Trials will be near perfect.

The rage quitting on Sunday morning was annoying. But I think the real issue is that too many people think that they're going to walk into Freelance and go flawless.....and then get mad when they don't. If you want to go flawless.....get a team and go into the regular list. Freelance is basically there for solo players to get a chance to play, and get access to the REGULAR loot pool. While not getting curbstomped every other match.
