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.

I liked it, had some great teammates and some bad ones. Some matches I did well, some mediocre, and some terrible. I don't expect to go flawless ever but it was nice getting some weapons. One person suggested removing the ability to go flawless in freelance. I don't know about anyone else but I'd be fine with that. That could be the loot pool and the real trials mode could be the one where people go for flawless.
