@hayhor That’s completely different, holding onto an ability/ ultimate for the final ring is just playing strategically and is something that everyone can. It’s not uncommon for the final ring to be full of Gibby/ Bangalore air strikes, Caustic gas, Crypto EMP‘s ect but that’s perfectly fine because those things can be countered and outplayed as long as your team plays smart as well and holds onto their abilities

The golden knockdown shield is another story as not everyone has access to one so it doesn’t matter how smart you play or how skilled your team is, the winner more often than not is going to be decided by who has the golden knockdown.
RNG should only sway the fight, not completely screw you over and rob your team of a victory

@Bean2kay9 I think a gold knockdown is fine. I've won and lost matches due to them. Battle royales have a decent amount of rng and luck involved and this is just one of them. No different than a self revive on warzone really.
