Drip actually does more than you think. If you make your opponent scared of you because of your glourious, power radiating, gigachad guardian. They will feel nervous and you can exploit that. Put the fear of god into them

[@tsukiortu]

I'm going to agree with the Jerry tweet at least how I'm going to interpret it. Play it like it doesn't matter like it's just a quick play match if you get too invested you'll get mad focus on yourself focus on doing your best don't sweat the losses. You'll always play better with a cool head.

[@chriskleveridge3614]

I hope Bungie make more symmetrical maps for the future of PvP. Maps like Dead cliffs A Flag Spawn or Altar of Flame C Flag Spawn can be devastating if good teams know how to pin you there.

[@_SimpleJack_]

They just need to ditch dead cliffs and bring back any of the amazing maps they took away from us for no reason. Alter of flame has 3 exits from C flag, I have never once been spawn trapped there so it's not an issue.

[@omoroburns2172]

@@_SimpleJack_ they took away the maps because with the beyond light engine they have to remake everything by hand and they could only do so much

Does the control flag spawn in the same place every time or no? Didnt experience this last week.

[@YouMadBr0Br0]

Honestly, if you cant do any of the other 21 strategies, make sure you master the one about NOT SPENDING 20 SECONDS OR MORE COMPLAINING ABOUT YOUR DEATH! Make good callouts & help your team win in a down situation first & then complain all you want once they’ve clutched the round because you gave them key information! 💯😤

[@samgutierrez1070]

To go with that, the game literally gives you wall hacks on the player that killed you for a few seconds. Wasting that opportunity is throwing away knowledge which is power.

[@Stephetheon]

noted for real tho this is probably my biggest issue in PvP.

[@YouMadBr0Br0]

@@Stephetheon honestly it’s a really tough habit to break, it’s fine in 6s or comp but in trials it’s crucial that your team get the info from you.

[@rosemorningstar5368]

Yeah, a clan member of mine spent like 5-10 minutes going over and over why I died and how my plays were bad and stupid. I don’t play with them anymore lol. It’s best to identify why you died, what needs to happen instead, and move on. Too much time in between deaths lessens the amount of time you’re committing better plays to muscle memory. And it’s demoralizing. Lol.

[@YouMadBr0Br0]

@@rosemorningstar5368 yea that’s best spent after the round is over or in between matches or when you review game footage. In those moments giving your people crucial information as fast as possible can make the difference whether you win or lose

[@Dollt28]

Its kinda connected to the tips u mentioned but i would add its ok to admit that the enemy player is better and to not challenge them. Example: in burnout the sniper duels (outside spawn going inside right and inside spawn going to bridge). Many times (in both solo and premade) people would tilt from dying and they would keep challenging and keep dying for the same reason over and over in the same place, making rounds hard or straight up losing them. Its ok to admit the other player knows better and try to adapt/counter instead repeatedly challenging them out of tilt.

[@kmanalpha453]

9:15 Khepris Horn is also shockingly useful for halting a team rush. If the enemy is at the apex of the fire stream, its a killing blow. Bottom tree solar drops the Sunspot, and now their team is taking burn damage if they were too close. Got me several double kills on Burnout

[@Zagor24]

"learn through osmosis" *me checking my vault for any osmosis weapons xd*

[@KLGChaos]

For me, the best tip is focus on improvement and not winning. When I get in that mind set of needing to win, I then always blame myself when we fail, which leads to me to just get frustrated with myself. But a few months back, I started working out and trying to lose weight and by focusing on maintaining and improving instead of the results, I just naturally started to lose weight and gain muscle. It really opened my eyes to the growth mindset that I'm trying hard to maintain. Another great video that helped me is Ascendant Nomad's Two Second Rule. As someone who naturally hesitates because I lack confidence in my skills, it made me more aggressive and I started to do a bit better as I went through the Showdown Playlist this week. I just wish I was a better sniper. I always hesitate too much when shooting and as someone who excels at mid-range with pulse rifles, I feel like I should be a better sniper.

[@Subsistence69]

I also struggle with snipes even though my shot with everything else is pretty good and getting better. I say just take the shots, its the only way to practice. If you miss, oh well, youll just have to fight with primary until you get more ammo, no biggie

patty, you are so helpful and way too underrated

[@cinderycinder2155]

One thing I wanna build on from this vid, as a tip- TEAM COMP. The ideal team strat that I use when playing with my usual team is that we have two main positions- Anchor and Slayer, then outside of that we have Flex. I usually play Slayer while my playstyle allows me to flip from hyper aggressive to a supportive player on a dime (thanks slug shotguns) However, if your team's playstyles truly mesh you will be almost unbeatable. Theres plenty of comps that can work- 3 anchors, 2 slayers and an anchor, 3 slayers, all flex, etc. But its how you understand your strategy that makes it nuts. My team uses the first ine I mentioned, the 1-1-1 comp. The Slayer positions themself away from the team to get a pick, but never too far so the flex can bail them out of need be, same for the slayer to come back and help the anchor/flex if need be. The team should move as a well oiled machine; the anchor using a bow/sniper rifle and moving to wherever would be advantageous or more annoying for the enemy team. An anchor can be aggressive if they need, they are there to be a pinpoint for your team's rotation. Flex is usually a stompee hunter/top tree dawnblade. Slayer is anybody who can confidently get kills and handle multiple players at once- middle tree arcstrider with a slug shotgun/mid-long range primary being perfect for this. Its all in how you run your team and understanding your individual role on that team. Im not going to go make a random flank 100m away and tell me anchor to come here- no, my anchor is 10000x better and holding a position than I am. I listen to them and I trust them when they tell me they need me/its good for me to push. Also, COMMUNICATION. Flex usually doesnt give out too many call out or orders because theyre good enough to take in the information from the other two roles and support them accordingly. Its usually the slayer or anchor calling out the shots. If you can get this team comp down and really start understanding your team's playstyles, then you dont necessarily need to be using 100% meta and have crazy aim- you can pick out where the enemy is weak to your team and flex around it. Be the thorn in their side, eventually they will give way.

[@jurb156]

one thing not mentioned was, don't stall out 1v3's if you're the 1. you have to be decisive and work out whether you can win pretty quickly. the entire enemy team is charging super whilst your dead team mates aren't, so unnecessarily running away and stalling hurts your team in the next rounds

[@fontus8178]

I learned this after playing stuff like siege/CSGO. Nothing is worst that killing a teammate because they couldn't focus/hear footsteps and instead hear my BSing. There is a time and place for everything. Except baby noises after death.

Great editing Patty!

[@ChaseyCakes]

Awesome tips definitely got to practice playing with my team a little more when playing with friends I don't normally play 3v3 with. I find sometimes my team is slightly out of sync when collapsing after getting a pick. Sometimes it takes me a second to long to push or I pushed a little too early ending with a death on my team and a possible revive for the other team.

[@duckys54]

That snipe at 13:06 was just dirty. Absolutely incredible.

[@HeyaHoyah]

I played trials yesterday for the first time since D1 and gotta say, I think I got pretty lucky because I went flawless going in solo. First team I queued up with was a pair of experienced players and they helped me easily get to lighthouse

It's nice to see videos like this again it's been a long time since I've seen so many trials videos the last time was when trials first came out

I ran Travelers Chosen/Darkest Before pretty much all weekend last week. Had 6x Flawless and helped 7 other people get there for their first time while I ran different cards (didn’t get flawless myself since no mercy, but they did so that’s what matters)

[@MrinalKantiM]

I like your training videos. Please make some fundamental videos like how to play hand canons and other weapon types, counterplay strategies for each weapon types, optimizing loadouts for maps, suggestions on aim trainers specific to D2 to improve aiming.

[@YoshiONE2ONE]

Something I've been trying to implement when on LFG is calling out WHERE I got a kill, that way my team knows the general area of where the enemy res is, or if someone is flanking they have an idea where the other players are.

[@Carlos-kj1bf]

Yup, As long as you use agreed terminology. I hate when my team mates got killed "over there" or saw someone "to the right" when there are multiple angles. Because honestly get pretty pissed when you call out their dumbass callouts, like, sorry Idk where "there" is m8 lmao.

[@gommyboi380]

i noticed that while playing trials last weekend 540 pulses were really good but in later matches there were some hard counters to it. i used the crucible auto and it just shredded people. using weapons that people dont expect/ havent encountered before can throw off there play style a lot. ex: faster firing pulses/ scouts can hard flinch and counter snipers and 140 hc while playing at range. they also are great for team shooting. another example is how 180 hcs can hard counter 600 rpm smg/autos at medium range, or how wave frame grenade launchers can counter camping stag warlocks. trials and the crucible in general is a game of chess and the hardest opponent a chess master can face is one who is random. use the opponent's lack of knowledge to your advantage

[@kohrakthehorriblebionicle6187]

The focus on improving has been the biggest turnaround for my PvP play I think, looking for ways to do better instead of just being salty about being chaperoned or shatterdived for the nth time is a much more productive way to channel that energy

[@thomasvick1755]

helping others lose IS a success to me lol

[@novanation5870]

I've been watching these since 44 days before the end of Arrivals, back in the Spare Rations and Beloved meta. I miss that meta. But, these videos helped me so much. Last week, I went Flawless for the first time ever, and even got a god roll Adept Shayura's Wrath. This week I went flawless again and got Adept Icarus Grip, and a god rolled pve reed's regret with liquid coils, triple tap and vorpal. I could've never been here without Patty and every other big PvP player's help, I only have the skill now because I listened and played patiently, learning from my mistakes and reducing Tilt as much as possible. I love this game.

Tons of good advice here. Your solo queue tips are really good, too, Patty. I've now gone flawless starting in solo queue twice, once by adding good teammates and sticking with them, and once just in pure solo queue. You're dead on--it's at the mercy of matchmaking.

[@Wuronjilong]

You were making that Shayura's wrath look really good. Might pull mine from the vault for this weekend

[@curtisnielsen1399]

As I have played several hours of solo Q trials now, 1st I will say it is the best trials experience I have had to date. I am a solo player 90% of the time and never had a team I play with regularly to go into trials with. Secondly when I 1st saw the title of this video the 1st thing that came to mind is use a microphone. In several hours of play I have only come across 2 people that have mics on other than myself . It makes a huge difference when you're able to communicate and give information, piggy backs on some of the greatest Tips from this video, however, information is useless if people aren't even entering the team voice channel to hear it or have a Mic themselves to give information back.

[@dustinstone1506]

I just want to say been watching your videos and I just went flawless solo queuing. Want to say thank you.

[@dysstopic]

As someone who has gone solo flawless twice, yes, I double carried around 85% of the games I played on the journey to the lighthouse. I did match up with good teammates occasionally, though.

My friend likes to use his Rangefinder Summoner and a Multimach, along with Weighted Knives and Athrys' Embrace. He uses the Summoner to flinch long range enemies to the sky, while the Multimach and knives cover close to medium range.

[@xandernelson1492]

It's also the reason I want a Summoner now.

[@razaiel3688]

Keeping your opponent guessing can really help. I'm our teams play caller and we've punched above our weight a few times by doing a different play every round. It can be easy to get into a pattern with this tho so active care with it us important in addition to taking your opponents load out and strengths into account.

[@Astro-ck6mh]

When solo queuing, I find it more valuable to "trialsreport" YOUR OWN TEAMMATES to know how to adjust your playstyle!

[@Hades_Tempest]

I had far more fun solo queuing, I was the one who played away from my team, as most either held hands with other solo queuers (if that’s a word), or who spread from others but since I took middle lanes as most parts, I learned to move quickly to one or the other who were being shot at. This lead to a 6-0 card but lost at the last one mostly to an underlevel guardian, who didn’t hold their own, but it was a very good match that went to a 8 round match that was to a loss, a shame, but I had so much fun.

[@EpicLinc]

[@monkeywithaskirt]

Yeah, I solo queued the first time Trials was available this season: I had fun, first time wining matches, and getting my hand on Trials loot. A tale I will tell my grandkids. The second weekend.. awfull: people being toxic, calling me an idiot for not resing them on the spot; calling me a $hitty player for not being able to kill my oponents. I hope the next weekend is better... I newer got flawless though. I wish...

[@SchwifTV]

I've been using double primary like it's year one! lol (Messenger + Death Adder) = most adaptive loadout I've used these past 2 weekends

[@ctmusic7360]

The hardest thing to do is if you are playing with two ppl who aren’t as aggressive as you and you know that if you push as a team all at once after the pick you win but your teammates are slower to the play, then you need to chill and get them to go with you. So many times you’ll have someone get a pick and push immediately and as they say “let’s push” they get bopped. Then they get mad at the teammates.

[@Stormexplosion]

Great tips! Appreciate this! I love me some trials :D

First time playing trials and I didn't think everyone would be at max level or near, gotta grind more

[@noahbearbear3036]

[@user-c4b9b]

Late but my tip is NEVER STOP PLAYING. In your clips you show it, when you are not OUT, you are NOT OUT. Don't just give up while the enemy shoots you because you are "dead anyway", TRY to get out of there or return fire, SOMETIMES you pull it out and save yourself.

[@Ragnarok633]

If your load times aren't awful you can swap weapons mid round. I have a teammate that snipes but if he misses both shots he'll switch to a bow as a sort of sniper. A head shot with a precision frame bow or a poison arrow from le monarque is basically a snipe body shot and easy clean up with your other primary

[@simeoncheshmedjiev-shraik4719]

Very nice, thank you.

[@legi0n47x]

I don't play trials anymore. But, when I did, one of the times that supers catch a team is right when you get them. Might be advanced, but a 2v1 chase down where you pop as soon as you get it while a pack of apes is chasing you can often result in closing out the round. In later rounds teams will play around what supers are up, but not right when you get it in the heat of the action.

[@frasierm314]

my trials tip for controller players/console players - double primary, if used correctly, is broken. A sidearm in your back pocket will never let a shotgun player get close to you, and allow you to have just as much ability for pushing a pick. My personal favorite is travelers chosen, as it gives me almost all my abilities back every single round. I run travelers with palindrome and have no trouble pulling out flawless' with a decent team and some want to win.

[@myHandleIsAlwaysTaken]

have you tried using lightning grenades with Heart of Innermost Light? that exotic allows you to spam what I think is the best grenade in the game almost every round. Young Ahamkara and tripmine is also good but Lightning gives you DoT effect on that particular area and you can go with bottom tree arc for those insane melee lunges

[@obi-wankenobi4742]

I’ve been watching vids like this for about a season trying to improve my 0.8… I now have a 1.6 with 140+ matches this season and have 2 flawless compared to 0 prior I just wanna thank you for these tips

[@PattycakesGaming]

Glad they have helped!

[@jacksonmcdonald1122]

A good tip is if you get critically wounded but also get the enemy critical, unless you have perfect reaction time, don't rechallenge. Recover your health first and make the callouts for your team to let them try and finish the kill. It's okay to not have a great K/D in trials/comp if your K/DA is good. After all, we aren't all 1v3 gods.

[@ChrisCobraEliteTM]

Reset the fight over the Rez teammate or enemy. Close trials games are won and lost with rezzes. Having to get 4/5 kills per round instead of 3 is a huge disadvantage. So when there is a pick reset your positioning to control it.
