As soon as a full Freelance mode comes out it'll be perfect for me.
Until then, it's certainly nice to actually earn some Trials gear, but hell, playing Gambit against stacks is less infuriating.

Would 100% recommend that you get a team together to go flawless. Solo is good for bounties and the round win rewards but not great for trying to go flawless
-
I never intended to go for Flawless. But a Freelance playlist will be good. For me and my sanity. Screw playing stacked teams.
-
Then doesn’t it not matter if you win or lose? Since you just need round wins to progress the bounties and non-flawless loot
-
Losing to people on my level is different than getting 0-5'd by a team with adept gear.
-
Just watch your mindset, if you go in for flawless, don't be surprised if you get mad.

Oh, as someone who never even tried Trials before (in D2) I'm honestly calling this a net positive. I had heard plenty of tales about it being a sweat fest where twitchy reflexes and optimal loadouts are half the game (the other half being tight communication), but in most cases me and two randoms could at least win a round or two even when we lost. I suppose I went in expecting either the worst experience of my PvP career, or a miraculous absence of toxic behavior because this was the "New Trials". Neither turned out to be reality, both to my relief, and my disappointment. TL;DR: I didn't go in expecting to even win five matches, but after slogging through and getting seven wins on my card, I feel oddly fulfilled, but mostly sore and tired. Definitely not the nightmare I expected, but certainly more draining than I had expected.
