Everyone talking about going Flawless in Trials of Osiris like it's easy.

I'm honestly curious how anyone gets 7 wins in a row period. You're either like on a professional level, insanely lucky, or cheating.

I see like more than half the players rocking adept weapons, it makes no sense.

You don't need seven wins in a row but rather seven wins on a single card that doesn't have a recorded loss. A Mercy card currently allows for a single loss to be forgiven and in a future update this will be increased to allow for two losses.

With all the people with adepts you would think it was 3 wins in a row to get flawless. Even with 7 wins and 1 loss, I would still consider that comically difficult to achieve.

People trade wins. One team goes through and gets flawless and then the other team. Win trades have been going on for years and years. I've never cared enough to get on the bandwagon, but it's nothing new.

1)Win trades
2)Lots of nerds play top dosh for carries
3)Cheaters are still a thing

I play for many years now and I experienced the immense cheater problem a few years ago, so I can recognize them most of the time. This week I noticed there's a sudden rise of cheaters in Trials (especially wall hackers), 2 weeks ago I got flawless SOLO and I'm not a pro 2+ kd, not a cheater, I was lucky because I played at 3 am in the night and didn't face any cheater 8 games in a row (lost one 7th game). But since last night (friday 31 march) in the first 8/10 games I face cheaters and wall hackers. And how do I know?

Aside from unusual high kd, 98% kill crit on weapons and fairly new accounts.
Because they know exactly where our teammates are and they headshot us without a flinch, without 0.1 sec response time / think time - because they already see you through the walls, doesn't matter what gun they use. They just pop up and the moment you see them and jump away / try to fire back, you're dead. Even while I play hunter with invis/stompees or invis improvement exotic, I can't get an advantage vs cheaters. The only way I can get advantage is somehow I come close without dying, then they're toast most of the time.

This game looks like it's going back to the state of 2/3 years ago. It's sad, but when you look at the leaderboards there are people with over 100 kd, only 1 loss in trials vs 99 wins and still active.

I also notice lot's of people denying cheaters in the EU PC world, imo, they are likely to be cheating themselves OR they just have no clue, they think the other team is pro. But today I played with a few teams who actually agreed we were playing vs cheaters. Because the enemies were bad. Bad movement, no sliding nothing. Just walking like a robot, perfect positioning (obviously wall hack) and 0 flinch jumping headshots while walking like a robot.

Also it's also nearly impossible if you're 3 or 4-0 ahead (with 3+ kd) stomping them and you end up losing because they turn on their cheats (happens a lot) and suddenly they stomp you.

get gud

Ability / Luck. Both must be on your side to win Trials matches consecutively (mainly luck of matchmaking)

[kdudcringe]

Took me and my friend 3 hrs to go flawless last night and that was long for us. Usually it's more like 2 hrs. I am a 1.65kd trials and he is 1.3kd, it is a mixture of ability, luck on teamates and enemies, and if you get a ghost melee or not lol. Definitely doable, I have gone flawless solo freelance a few times.

[Jagdtiger]

Went flawless in freelance in 70 minutes this week. Freelance is so easy its not even funny. If you're good enough to carry your team, just go hyper aggro and pick every round for a guaranteed flawless. If you're worse at the game, play your life, don't die, don't take 1v1s, teamshot, and pray that you get good RNG to get carried. Either that or go on LFG and find a stacked team of people above 1.5. Experienced players need 2 carries per season to gild their flawless seal, so good players often team up to help hopeless players.

Most people who can consistently get flawless weekly are around or above 1.1. Any lower than that and you're probably gonna need a carry. It's really not that difficult because usually 3 or 4 of your matches are against terrible players who you will just mop the floor with 5-0. So really its usually only 3 or 4 actually difficult wins, plus your mercy. And to OP, i checked and you're a 0.5, so its probably worth either bringing your skilled friends who enjoy playing with you for who you are, or searching for skilled players in need of people to carry for their seal on LFG. Good luck guardian

You can purchase carries for very little amount, they normally win trade
