As someone who prefers avoiding direct confrontation and stays mostly in the back, ranging people and sneaking around, Chaosball is the absolute worst. I have zero chances of grabbing it and even less chances to hold it for more than 2 seconds. Plus the people who generally grab it are unkillable tank-healers who just sit there being supported by their group and doing nothing but staying alive, regardless of how many ultimates both teams drop on them.

Second worst is CTR. Same reason. If I try and grab a relic I'll be immediately steamrolled. Best bet is to just sit on the base and try to defend. Which generally gets me steamrolled just the same because the rest of the team is scouting/fighting elsewhere. Plus if the relic gets grabbed it's usually by a perma CC-immune tank who moves at the speed of light. Good luck trying to stop that.

Deathmatch is okay. Leeroy into the brawl, kill some, die some. Average fun to be had.

Capture the flag can be fun if people are more focused on the killing than on the objectives. However since the flag locations are static, chances of finding any of them unguarded are much smaller.

My favorite is Crazy King. Why? Because 9 times out of ten the groups are too busy trying to fight each other. I just keep an eye on the map and when there's a free flag, I go and take it. I may not kill 20 players per match but you bet I'll be showing up for those unguarded flags.

Not a fan. Like a few others have said, the scoring system is a bit weird, and I'm yet to play a match where any team seems to really know what they're doing. Too many people go into CTR treating it like Deathmatch, and I usually see more people ragequitting CTR than in any other game mode.

I'm terrible at PvP in general. I played Battle Grounds enough to get access to all of the skills I wanted (Caltrops) and that was about it.
Capture the Relic is one of the ones I was "better" at, but I was never any good at any of them.

I think modes are ok but i'm not going there until we get rid of stupid heavy armor DBS+Tornado spam ^^

Also, the scoring is completely stupid. Exhibit A:



I held sprint and petrified the people guarding relics a total of three times. I scored significantly higher than my teammates who defended our relic. How was that fair to them?

Yeah, that's the only real problem with CTR. Anyone on defense takes a bath during scoring. Otherwise, it's a pretty good mode.

For me it's 50/50

It would be my favorite game mode, but some games are just ruined by the enemy team having a perma block tank on the relic. You run to one base and see you have 0 chance of ever getting it, run to the next and see they have a perma block tank too, then you know the timer is just going to count down without anyone scoring. I understand the teamwork and roles in bgs but it still makes for a boring game.

I love the objective game modes. Crazy king and domination are the best gamemodes to me. TDM and capture the relic are cancer. I hate how you get matched with other randoms. While the other teams will be full 4 man/woman premaded. Like one match will be a even fight against random and the next you just get completely skull drug. Its so frustrating playing against a full premade group of Stamdens.

Most game modes really suck, but mostly because of how the scoring works.
Not getting points for PvP kills in a PvP game mode makes absolutely 0 sense.

If I defend my relic, go 3vs1 and get all 3 kills and prevent them from taking my relic I SHOULD get points. As it stands right now, you get nothing for it.

Same for domination games. You defend flags, kill people at the flags even if you are outnumbered and get no points for it.

Getting kills around PvP objectives should give you points, since, after all it is a PvP game mode...
