So i enjoy this game. I initially played it for the 1v1 duel mano y mano environment. Then I had a friend, and we played 2v2 brawls. This was very fun, adding a partner to a dueling theme.

Now, I have more friends that I would love to play this brawl mode with 4v4. But we sat in the matchmaking (4v4 elimination) lobby, and 7+ minutes, the lobby doesnt bring in anyone. I know dominion is the most popular, but i don't enjoy the capture the zone on the map mode, I like the dueling aspects in 1v1 and 2v2. My friends feel the same way. Don't like skirmish either. We like one life per round. It makes for tense, tactical combat.


I understand why elimination may not be very popular and how we can address it with a few tweaks.

As yall know the community may not always be honorable and will gank once ONE opponent goes down, and with one life only, that problem is amplified. So how about we keep this honorable. Fight club rules (1v1 only, one fight at a time) with tag team. Tag team match like professional wrestling. 4v4. First you start in the arena 1v1, and 3 of your teamates watch on rooting for you. Then once a fight is done, the surviving combatant can still stay in, or they can tag in a fresh new man, leading to a fresh 1v1. Perhaps each team can have 1 or 2 tags per game mid game.

This keeps the intense duel atmosphere still in tact, yet all fights will still be honorable.


Key things to do to increase popularity of 4v4 elimination:
1)More rewards justified by the fact that this is an unforgiving mode

2)Tag team with fight club rules (1v1 only)

3) Put this 4v4 Elimination in the duel and brawls section because it matches the theme of 1 life only modes.
