So I've pin pointed the ying-yang of For Honor. In PvP, you deal with team gankers in most 4v4 matches, and in Vs AI you have idlers. Last night there was not one but TWO games where 3 of the players in there were AFK or running laps in the spawn. So, it's either join Dominion games where there is a 75% chance that you will join a game with two Berserkers or a 108 Peacekeeper, or both, who just gang up on lone players or join a AI Dominion where half your team is standing in the spawn and you lose 1000 to 200 at most.
Only way you can win is if your gear is focused on Revenge gain on defense and injury, and Revenge duration with increased attack. So you can two hit people like most 108 builds. Guess I'll just not match make when doing Vs AI so I have team mates who actually do things.
Ganking is 2 or more vs 1?
All modes except duel are team games. You fight as a team. I very much prefer not ganging up on people, but it's part of the game. I see a lot of honorable people in brawl and some in elimination as well. Without the bankers there would be no honourable people, because they are only honorable because they act that way in spite of gaining an advantage by ganging up. You just have to deal with it and be happy when you meet honourable people - you will know it is the players being honourable and not the game forcing them. I very much prefer that.
Dominion and skirmish are gank games by nature and here you should not expect honour. They are pure team games where team play plays a greater role that individual player skill compared to the other game types.
