On the other end, it forces any player that falls behind to step up their game in real time if they want to earn the ability energy needed to turn Destiny 2's powerful supers against their opponents and stunt their momentum. Giving incentives to momentum, it rewards players for early success in a match with more ability uses, which then can lead to even more kills and higher kill streaks. The currently running game mode in Iron Banner, Eruption, also adds its own level of competitive difficulty to the event.
So, in a way, Iron Banner pulls in players from competitive and casual PVP and hardens those interested enough to stay into competitive-level Guardians by the end of the event. While this increased difficulty might not exactly be what every player is interested in when it comes to PVP in Destiny 2, it can be a stepping stone for those curious about the more competitive modes to start honing their skills. Pitting players of all skill levels then quickly forces those who are less attuned to the pacing of high-stakes PVP to learn some of the tricks necessary to stay alive for more than a second. Something as simple as approaching a doorway from too close will instantly get a player killed by an opponent with a well-placed shotgun. The result is an incredibly difficult experience for players who haven't turned tricks and tips for Destiny 2's Crucible into second-nature instincts. In the case of Iron Banner, however, the influx of players from Trials of Osiris and the Glory Rank playlists means that the overall skill level of any given team is much higher than in regular Crucible matches. The result is that Iron Banner becomes the deep end for players more accustomed to jumping into the more casual experience of Control or Mayhem. With Iron Banner offering some impressive weapons and gear that can reach Destiny 2's power cap, even players who don't generally enjoy Crucible will show up for the daily rewards.
What makes these different tiers of competitive gameplay in Destiny 2 important for Iron Banner is the way that the event tends to draw in players from all ends of the PVP spectrum. Then there is the Trials of Osiris playlist, which appears periodically to offer the most challenging PVP experience Destiny 2 has to offer. On most days, this takes the form of different playlists that track player progress as either Crucible Rank or Glory Rank, with the latter requiring players to win matches in order to advance. As is the case with most titles these days that offer some sort of competitive content, Destiny 2 divides its Crucible into a more casual experience and several more competitive-focused ones.
