Is straight cancerous gank squad spam city now. I used to really love the game mode but now it's just simply not fun. Too many times have I engaged with my whole team and try my best to spread damage to each enemy when I can while still focusing on one, executing him, then get taken out by a random heavy from left field mid execution because either my whole team died or just one died and the rest ran away. Seems the only way to play this mode is with an assassin now.

If they were close enough to intterupt your execution, they were close enough to be on your minimap, also, skirmish, why the hell are you executing if you are not sure that the other enemies around you are not engaged. People with low situational awareness suffer on skirmish but that is a learn to play issue, not a game or player issue.

I try to do quick executions so they can't be revived. Plus the characters that can close distance really fast like peacekeepers, valks, and the LB sprinting heavy don't show up on the mini map until the last second. Or pk's that use the stealth feat. I was just saying that it's annoying trying to play a slower character like a raider or lawbringer in this mode because of these things. The shugoki and warlord still fair well though because of the hyper armor and warlords zone. For example one game on my barely rep 1 LB I could still kill people over my other team mates, but usually once that happens then I'm converged on nearly instantly. However, next game I hop on my orochi against the exact same people and stomp them just because I can mix up my zone into switching targets and slapping them with a double top light then reverse a top heavy onto another target behind me. I understand situational awareness comes into play, but at the same time the mode itself seems to favor some classes over others.
