Wht Is Keeping You From Your Points In This Event?

My rough statistics is showing around 40% of the winning team missing out on a point due to a lack of a kill. Everyone else seeing roughly the same?

Frankly, I feel as those these competitions only do more damage to diminish the value of a teamwork focused game.
Where are the competitions/events that award for team work? Not requiring solo kills, rather % based on contributed team effort?
Capture points, assist damage (yes, I know that an assist was required.) things where everyone can seen a benefit?
Oh and I saw either completely new pilots as in no idea how to control their unit, a lot of AFK at drop, of course the disconnect issue is still going on...
Just my .02
65 matches for 30 wins...

My team will just derp out, some guys will rambo and die within 2 mins of match start.
Or they will go full coward, and wait for the fight to happen.
The kills aren't a problem, I've only had a couple of wins where I didn't score a kill.
Another 4 points tomorrow, and I'm done.

1) Bad teammates - The more derp, the less likely anything of consequence happens.
2) Not getting the kill - That's falls more on me to secure it instead of leaving it to fate.
3) Got the kill, except rule #1 in application - Occasionally the kill is gained, but the team fails. What happens sometimes is people are trying to be "generous" but forget that occasionally some kills cannot be avoided in order to secure the win (which occasionally be considered being greedy, but not intentionally so if at actual jeopardy).
It's far more doable in the group queue that the solo queue if you have competent teammates. Trusting solo players tends to be a lost cause unless people are actually following the quality player's lead.

Very sad display in my Stormcrow, maiden voyage battle. 214dmg, 1K, 7A, I think 1 component, a win, and I lived. Was there a match score requirement? My Score was prolly very sad. I know the payout was...97K.....yikes.
Its hard to track lights lol. Im running, they are running and dodging, up hills, over hills, allies in the way, gotta watch for incoming fire...im sprayin that laser fire everywhere haha.

Getting wins is the real bia*** here. But thats not really a problem. I will definitely love an additional mechbay. But via premiumtime I have earned 10 mil cbills in a few hours yesterday. Till monday it should be another 10 which is great since I wasted a bunch of bills buying ******** mechs.

I guess this is a broken matchmaker but at 18% wins so far I don't have the time or care for 165 matches to get a "free" mech and bay. Make it 3 variants and maybe.

Match time and search times especially for CW make this challenge require quite a bit of time.

I'm sure it's a great mech and all, but it just doesn't fit me and I'm pretty much finished playing IS mechs.

Hear Music, watch TV and do this and that little homework while playing now and then.

If you take one shot from a good position many move on you in perfect coordination.
19k matches and solo random drops don't work like that. They may pull of stuff like that but with frayed edges when they do.
I have a good k/d 1.09 and usually am in the top high scores with my team. With a keyboard have never be able to herd cats like that.
Its not the challenge, its not MM. Its people gaming it for advantage. February should change all that with the inclusion of Voip.
Just check the Voip threads and see who and why its so strongly opposed. Farming will be much tougher then.
