Please for the love of god do not make this the standard game mode for trials. It’s -blam!-.
Why are bungie so desperate to ruin their own game?
Awful, awful decision.

Agree. Seems like the only intent of Checkmate was to appease the Scrim crowd, which I'm fine with. Just don't put it in an actual game mode. However, you CANNOT balance two sandboxes with the same weapons. Weapons are designed and balanced for the regular PVP sandbox, so when you start messing with it, you get unbalanced crap like we have in Checkmate. I don't care as much about the ability cooldowns. That changes the meta a bit, but it's not necessarily a bad thing. Same with special. Not bad, just different.
