Why did the hunters win the guardian games?

[Jewtaro]

I forgot how it works. The event still going right? Then how come the hunters won? As I see it right now the Titans flag is the highest one but Hunters one like when, yesterday? I'm confused.

These sort of events are always rigged to go one way. Next year, Warlocks will take the win. Regardless of what game pulls an event like this, it's always rigged and it is of their best interest to make it go 3 ways eventually. Which is why Warlocks will take the W next year guaranteed.

How can i be so sure of an event being rigged? They have to create content based on the "final results" and nobody is going to do create stuff in the last day of an event when the final results kick in, so everything has to be done before that day. Destiny 2 is no different, they might have made all 3 outcomes in the game already since it is all text/voice based and very little changes to the tower, but the game needs to be adjusted to the proper finale and they f*cked it up for the hunters this year. The text for them winning was leaked last week and titans fireworks were always there on the spot, they didn't even bother to fix that one.

So people taking this entire thing too seriously need to understand their place. None of it matters. I'm a titan main and i banked medals in all 3 classes as i played with them all to get weekly stuff done. That's how much i care about rigged events with virtually no significant outcome.

that 'leak' that was spread around last week wasn't even real and didn't even match the text in game during the closing ceremony, take off your tinfoil hat

Last year bungie decided to use the 3/5ths compromise and weigh slave hunter votes less. They would have won then too.

hmm yes but the more important statistic is the ACTIVE population. Meaning, the average number of each class playing over a period of time.

The statistic you are quoting is basically looking at all the characters in destiny, regardless of activeness. Also do recognize that each account can create 3 characters, there does something to dilute the actual statistics of how much hunters are being played.

Wasn't the statistic Bungie quoted last year, is that there's more Hunters than Warlocks and Titans combined?

For last years Guardian games they used numbers from the Iron Banner before it and got the numbers for active guardians, hence the weighting of the points/medals/whatever for last year so titan and warlock medals were worth roughly double what hunters were worth.

No idea what the numbers for this year were, the most common reference to this year is the 39% for hunters and 31% for warlocks & titans.

To me it seems Titans seen the hunters on a roll for the 1st week and gave up, kinda like what the hunters appeared to have done last year, I know I didn't bother (hunter main).

I know some of the titan streamers were trying to get the titans to not compete so they would get lots of the cumulative 10% bonus to their score so that they could steam roll and stop any chance of hunters or warlocks winning.

Warlocks seemed to take advantage of the 10% bonuses and hunters got a few bonuses which allowed them to get the final days they needed to secure the win. first 2 weekends were hunter wins and hunters won 11/21 days, so they won the event.

This is my understanding, I might be wrong or missing something, I hope this helps.

Yeah hunters are by far the most played class.

Followed by Titans and lastly by Warlocks. Warlocks had like 20% only of the total population. lol. Hunters about 60% afaik. The stats are based on amount of time played on a weekly basis I believe.

That is why hunters lost first guardian games. Bungie made an algorithm that would punish Hunters because of their sheer numbers. But this year they were too lenient on the algorithm and thus why they won easily.

The only thing i want to see in any future guardian games events is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ auto pick up function for laurels.. Couldn't care less who wins, just give me that auto pick up option.

[Gigadesu!]

I imagine since they are the most appealing to players the numbers just make them win by default. It's kinda like when steam did that summer event and thought it was a good idea to put a team corgi as if everyone wasn't going to pick that one...
