First of all, I would like to say "tRiAlS iS eNd GaMe PVP". Screw that dumb -blam!- excuse that you use to stomp on people with no teams.
First of all, Bungie's matchmaking has been garbage since forever. They obviously don't care about fixing it any time soon.
I'm OK at PVP, and somehow every time I play, I get matched with teams of 3 (the typical hunter + Chaperone or sniper type of team), and my other two teammates suck really bad. Almost every time I end up at the top of the team with the most kills, and my teammates couldn't kill themselves jumping off of the cliff because they would miss.
The 3 or 4 times that I made it to the lighthouse, I did because I was playing freelance, and those matches were fun, felt more even, and even if I missed the lighthouse by one kill I knew that, if I tried again, there was a good chance I would make it to the lighthouse.
I know that there are some people with the dumb argument that having Freelance every week would make the numbers go down, I've heard that before, and every time I ask for proof, I get nothing.
There, thanks for reading my weekly rant.

The sweats in the comments outing themselves in the comments is sending me. Y'all don't want freelance permanently because you won't be able to stomp lower skilled players to your flawless... you'll actually have to work for it. Funny.
