I met this absolutely amazing guardian today named Poke🖤
He’s been fighting the good fight against bladder cancer🤝
He’s been playing destiny since D1 and he’d never gone flawless before! So we had to get him there🖤

@A_dmg04
in the tower as a voiced NPC like the other random tower NPC’s.
I think it’s an understatement to say Dylan has had a profound impact on both the game itself and the community and it would be amazing to have him immortalized in such a way🖤
Things that contributed to an influx of players in destiny 2 season 18 according to bungie:
Kingsfall [❌]
Seasonal content [❌]
Epic Games Launch [❌]
Fortnite/Destiny crossover [❌]
SBMM in a non competitive playlist so horrendous people would rather leave games early [✅]
Still not addressing the PvP community and ignoring trials of Osiris launch while upsetting the hardcore raid community with master raid loot, this is an extremely tone deaf twab.
This week at Bungie, we are riding high on the Eruption love, giving thanks for six-feet-tall jellybeans, and getting our gear ready for the Master King’s Fall raid.
📰
Suddenly people who play exactly three games a week know more about crucible than every content creator who has sunk thousands upon thousands of hours specifically into crucible, but go off Gambit Garry tell me how we save the playlist 🤡
“This week at bungie what the PvP community asked for goes in one ear and out the other as we justify skill based match making while ignoring omnioculous and classy rest in PvP”
PVE mains pretending like their half of the community is never toxic and never harass devs yet they all collectively lost their minds over a day one raid emblem.
Okay so surprise surprise I’m a human being, one with lots of issues and social anxiety and this is a lot in a short amount of time and I’m trying to keep good spirits but the amount of hate I’m getting is visceral so I’m gonna step away for a few days.
Unpopular opinion. Destiny 2 isn’t competitive, it’s a party game. It’s UNO levels of skill. But if you want to pretend it’s Valorant or CS by all means go for it.
Hey if you’re a trials streamer and you openly associate with weirdos who make women uncomfortable or weirdos who have racist/transphobic friends, I hope you get deplatformed.
Being good at PvP does not grant you immunities from being a freak, you know who you are.
There isn’t a single chill crucible playlist, everything is a 70k tournament and that is my reward for investing thousands of hours into PvP.
I’ve never seen a game try so hard to get me to not play it.

@AntiPiker
Are you okay? Asking because I can’t possibly fathom why anyone would say something so snarky to someone donating a sizeable amount of money to a worthy cause
@Benjjjyy
The conspiracy theory that this is a filler DLC because they couldn’t get strand done in time for WQ so what was meant to be LF got pushed to Final shape is honestly no longer a “theory” in my eyes. I’m glad bungie is taking an L, I hope this leads to the FS being a 10/10 dlc
I was on the destiny 2 subreddit, I helped ruin PvP
I stand firm in the opinion that wanting omni nerfed and a more balanced “crucible” are not the same issue
If you think omni is OP then don’t use it in PvP, Solves that problem
At the end of the day, omni helps folks go flawless
“This week at bungie what the PvP community asked for goes in one ear and out the other as we justify skill based match making while ignoring omnioculous and classy rest in PvP”
The core issue with PvP at the moment is a lack of content. There’s no reason to play it other than personal enjoyment. every trials adept is outclassed by another legendary, comp has no incentive, Qp having no incentive.
Slapping SBMM on it thinking casuals are going to (1/?)
Since apparently I can only do what I do due to my skill, and the fact that I use MnK, here is a video of my sister killing Legend Calus on phase 2 on Controller. She has never played the game before, her only fps experience is ~10 hours of Minecraft. Took around 30 minutes.
If you notice, I don’t play PvE so I’m not stating my opinion on the Div nerf. I’ll leave that discussion for folks who actually play PvE.
If only y’all did that with PvP 💀
I’m a small content creator. You’re a Forbes journalist. Bungie is a multi billion dollar company. You guys are folding to me posting PvP opinions in a passive aggressive tone. The big bad content creator.
@GothGfGirlGame1
@DFPsheikh
so what you're saying is that having thousands of people talking shit about you is annoying and exhausting and unwelcome? 🤔
@Benjjjyy
The odds of a negative KD player matching someone with a positive KD is roughly 20%, seeing as roughly 79% of the community is a negative KD. They don’t need this much coddling tbh.
@thedestinyshow
Holy fuck rent has gotta be due big man because it’s common knowledge for literally everyone in the D2 Twitter space that the Sony buyout has nothing to do with the current state of destiny 2.
Sony is hands off as far as the game itself is concerned
@ltzShadow
1 strike, 0 PvP maps, 0 gambit maps. No vender refresh, no new trials armor. They ignored the core activities that you spend most of your time in.
How much you wanna bet when brody gets banned in game he’s gonna do a 180 and say some goofy like “I acted cringe on purpose to get better chat protections in place I’m just a birthday boy u gonna punch a guy on his birthday UwU”
Wait so you mean to tell me “GothGfGirlGamer” was a girl the whole time?
I pulled the double, tripple cross.
Ik this is probably going to be confusing af for my community, but after a lot of soul searching I arrived here.
She/her pronouns in our interactions plz💖
If you solo Que trials you should be queing with the expectation that you are there to rank up Saint with an extremely small chance of going flawless, unless you’re a talented player.
I don’t understand Jim’s who think adepts should be handed out to them.
What if instead of SBMM we give new lights 10 games with hardcore SBMM on for them so they aren’t matching cracked gamers.
The rest of you have no excuse for needing SBMM in Non Competitive QuickPlay Control.
For the record, as far as I’m concerned me and
@PaulTassi
are good. We disagree, but that’s okay. It’s not that big of a deal at the end of the day.
I appreciate the support, but don’t give him a hard time in my name please and thank you.

@DestinyNostalgi
I love cayde too! He strikes me like he can take care of himself. A guardians guardian. Definitely wouldn’t pop 3 supers and die to a dreg.
@DirtyEffinHippy
Hi,
This isn’t it, respectfully👌🏻
I know it’s not CM’s faults by any stretch of the imgination not shooting the messenger by any stretch.
to hype up a PvP focused twab without addressing any pain points while justifying SBMM comes across very tone deaf is all.
Much love👌🏻🖤
The casual-ification of trials with the introduction of the flawless pool while making quickplay feel sweatier than comp is the most backwards logic I’ve ever seen from a AAA studio.
@Destiny2Team
SBMM needs to go, remove challenger pool/practice pool. Make trials purely card/connection. Remove FBMM from trials.
Until that happens pvp is dead in the water.
I’m sorry but knowing I inadvertently started a twitter war with Jims, all while I’m stoned af in my bed eating pizza rolls is like peak life moment for sure
So are we ready as a community to discuss the removal of the flawless pool, while incentivizing casuals to stay in the playlist through increased reputation gains and an easier path to trials loot?
Non flawless pool is significantly more difficult compared to normal trials imo
@CapnEXE
@PaulTassi
I love how there can be no grey areas at all, it’s all or nothing. A bully normies for playing the terf wizard game, that’ll totally move them over to our side and not push them more right wing 💀
@stephen_richer
@Jnet_margarita
Watching you clap back at these types of people really does bring a smile to my face. It’s good to know my state reps are living in reality
You’re delusional if you think destiny 2 non competitive quick play is in anyway remotely close to a competitive sport like the NBA/NFL/NHL so please stop comparing them to justify SBMM.
We have recently implemented a fix that no longer allows players to purchase multiple Adept weapons with a single Passage after going Flawless in Trials of Osiris. The flawless matchmaking pool will be re-enabled on Sunday at 9AM PST.

PvP is worse somehow, only enjoyable activity is fishing and even then that has more to do with the dopamine slot machine than it does with the fishin activity being fun/rewarding/engaging.
@YongYea
Idk they haven’t understood the assignment with their last two games, I’ll get hyped once it’s in my hands. if I can actually make choices that matter I’ll be impressed.
So like the last twenty four hours was really fucking crazy right, I’m gonna stop talking about it now and move on 🤝
everything that could’ve been said has been. Thank you guys for the lovely messages and the well wishes. I’ll get back to every single one of you.
