In 2022, Destiny 2 will once again host the Olympics and send Guardians into a unique class battle. Until recently, however, the event garnered little interest from players. But after a fresh weapon leak, that has changed dramatically. We tell you what rewards await you in 2022 during the competition and why it’s worth it.
When the Guardian Games start in Destiny 2 next week, there will be prizes, rewards, respect, and honor on the line. Since many Guardians are already familiar with the event, interest in the supposedly new content has been limited so far.
But Bungie apparently has another trick up its sleeve and is introducing a new “carrot” with the Guardian Games that players will want to chase. Thanks to its unique origin perk, it even has the potential to become the strongest Void SMG in Destiny 2.
We have compiled the known information and leaks regarding the weapons and armors of the Guardian Games 2022 for you. However, please note: While the findings come directly from the game data and the likelihood is high that it will be implemented this way, these are still unofficially confirmed information.
Where does the info come from? The well-known Destiny 2 dataminer Ginsor released the new weapon of the Guardian Games along with its properties on his Twitter account. The information apparently made its way into the game with the update 4.0.0.6 from Bungie.
Probably “The Title” is the better “Sweet Business”: The Void submachine gun “The Title” with aggressive frame only has a 750 RPM. However, after the recently announced zoom adjustments, this could soon be the better choice for SMGs.
Nevertheless, it is primarily its unique origin perk “Classy Contender” that caught the attention of Guardians. It could make the new Void SMG “The Title,” combined with Void 3.0, probably a better “Sweet Business”.
- The origin perk “Classy Contender” causes kills with this weapon to grant you class ability energy.
Also, the remaining traits and perks of the weapon ensure that it could be highly adaptable and thus suitable for almost any situation. As long as the perk information from the leak remains unchanged, the following attributes would be compared:
| Sweet Business | The Title | |
| Impact | 15 | 22 |
| Range | 45 | 50 |
| Stability | 50 | 38 |
| Handling | 73 | 62 |
| Reload Speed | 38 | 31 |
| Rate of Fire | 900 | 750 |
| Magazine | 37 | 27 |
- 1st Perk Column: Perpetual Motion, Dynamic Sway Reduction, Hip-Fire Grip, Steady Hands, Stats for All, Danger Zone, and Grave Robber.
- 2nd Perk Column: Focused Fury, Quickdraw, Moving Target, Vorpal Weapon, Surrounded, and Wraith.
How do you get the new submachine gun? The SMG “The Title” can only be obtained during the Guardian Games 2022. Once the event ends, the weapon will no longer be available.
If nothing changes in the old competition system of the games, you will probably have to redeem gold and platinum medals again and hope for your Godroll luck. The more packages you can redeem, the higher your chances.
Radiant Armors of the Guardian Games 2022
New Armor Sets: In addition to the new SMG, there will also be an armor set for each class as well as a unique class emblem that will need to be worn during the games. The class item will probably be obtained once again from the event’s point of contact, Spaceomi Eva Levante, while the armors will come in bundles through the Eververse – both for Glimmer and for Silver.
In 2022, the Olympics in Destiny will likely also be sponsored: Resourceful Guardians, like the player “The Ringmaster,” have discovered logos from various weapon foundries on the armors. This could indicate that in 2022, the various classes will be sponsored by Omolon, Veist, and Co. Just like in a real sports event.
And as always, players can earn some cosmetics until the final winner of the class battles is determined. These include a new exotic ship as well as emblems and shaders.
When does the event start? The class competitions of the Guardian Games, also known as “Guardian Games,” begin on May 3rd and run until May 24th. The competition extends over almost 3 weeks of Season 16. The closing ceremony, which crowns the class winners, will take place shortly before the season ends.
Who actually won the Guardian Games 2021?
In 2021, it was indeed the Hunters who were the triumphing class, while in 2020, the Titans were able to take the lead.
Hunters in Destiny 2 have therefore been claiming for a year now that this competition is largely pointless, as it is a well-known fact that Hunters are the best class in Destiny 2 and that absolutely no one would dispute that. The Warlocks, however, see it differently in 2022 and prepare to attack the title of “Best Class in the Game” with Void 3.0, while the Titans are still cool chilling in their “Gambit Bubble”.
What do you think of the new submachine gun and the event in general and the new rewards for 2022? Are you definitely on board and giving your all for your Guardian class, or does the competition leave you completely cold? Let us and other readers from MeinMMO know in the comments.
