Please make Straight Shot permanent
Straight Shot has saved Apex for me, I quit in S17 because pubs match making is so terribly punishing to average players. Being able to play and have fun instead of being relentlessly humiliated by t...

It is the current LTM that you can select to play in the game select menu like duos, trios, ranked, or mixtape, there is one labeled Straight shot.
Straight shot is a min BR trio game, 10 teams of 3, you will be dropped in a poi near another team, weapons you find will be kitted at different levels , blue purp etc.
When you get boxed after a few seconds your team automatically has your banner and can either use a respawn beacon or a mobile respawn becon to get you back in the game.
You can also once the team is dead press a button to join the next match instead of going back to the lobby.
It is BR on a smaller scale but fast paced.
Good fun.
Have not paid attention to the map size but it feels like the teams are placed closer together and ring times work the map well to make it a faster paced BR game.
Wins in this mode count towards your wins total as well as all other BR stats in this mode counting.
Also know now that final ring is very fast. And the other team didn't seem interested in fighting, despite me being on Wraith. Like I told my teammates "okay, they don't wanna fight, strange, guess Wraith wins the game for free then GG".
@Asmodeus566Map sizes are a little smaller and the rings move faster with the 10 teams of trios instead of 20. I think they start at like Ring 2 damage as well, but I'm not sure. Games typically take about the 10 minutes they advertise, so about half a normal trios game from start to finish.
You drop straight down into a POI from your team's own drop ship with one other team (most of the time) and their position is marked for you after a few seconds on the ground. There is also a loot tick right below the drop ship that has about 4 weapons in it and tons of kitted weapons in floor loot.
@hayhor I've found that people do rez you much more consistently because you don't have to retrieve banners first (your team is automatically gets them) and the loot is enhanced so there are mobile respawn beacons all over the place (almost guaranteed in support bins, especially if you need one since it is smart loot).
As said by others, the only issue can be scarcity of ammo in floor loot.
