    If you are up to your neck in chaos in Dominion, Elimination or Skirmish then boring is the last thing that comes to mind.
    Duels, for me and it seems for the majority of the playerbase, are the least enjoyable part of the game.
    Certainly the most boring.
    Well,that is debatable.Many enjoy the chaos of the 4v4 modes,but it's in duels that you can truly test your skills.And in duels,the more you improve,the more the game becomes boring.And I can't see how the gank modes can improve the mechanics.

    It's not debatable in terms of numbers, chaos is where it's at.
    Skill, no argument from me, you can't use anything but your skill in a duel, well, unless it's on a bridge.
    Point is, duels are what, 20% of the game, and the lowest played game mode.
    I think it goes without saying if you stick to duels the game is going to be boring.
    It's like playing World of Warcraft and sticking to duelling people outside Ironforge (people do this).
    'Boring' is highly subjective, but you are maximising your chances of being bored if you concentratie on one element of a far larger game.

    Ever tried using one of your Special abilities that "only 0.001%" can use?

    Yep,numbers don't lie,duel is the least played mode.But i noticed that recently brawl is more populated,it's pretty much always at medium activity.The major flaw of duels is that many of them are fought near a bridge.All those honor argouments in 4v4,imo,are made because people want to duel,but they hate the narrow maps of that mode.I'm playng way more brawls now,but if ubi implements ranks without changing anything,duel would be way more popular.Either that,or people will cry for their team just like on every moba,since competition is what makes those games stand for a long time.

    There's a good chance you haven't played many good people, as feints rarely ever work. The telegraph has to be ended way to early for them to be effective, anyone decent will turtle until that red light blinks.

    I did mention gameplay quite a bit. Feats, revenge, camera control and the defensive meta as a whole would all qualify no?

    Yes you can, if you have a brain it's quite easy. There's a clear meta developing and you can pick apart who is good and trying to buck the meta and who is good and following it, either way the game is boring AF ATM because of the core meta and gameplay mechanics surrounding them. It's also pretty hard to get to R10 or higher in launch week unless your pretty dedicated to the game and most dedicated players tend to be good and I've played plenty.

    If you think otherwise, 1v1 me.

    If you don't know how decimals work you should probably get that looked at.

    1$= 1.00 -> 0.02= 2˘
