Mixtape:

I agree that there is more variety (regarding skill) in Mixtape, but there still 100% is matchmaking ratings in mixtape. My mixtape matches are typically (like 80% of the time) comprised of all 4k 20 bomb players. This is super easy to confirm because you can consistently assess your killers stats.

So please know that at any given time, you are being protected from the top players. If that’s not enough and you are committed to experiencing a “close match” every single game, then I would respectfully recommend you play single player games (where the difficulty is easily manipulated). To be fair, there are “blow outs” or ”shut outs” in casual AND professional activities/sports.

As for the new event:

Its a breath of fresh air and thankfully its not the only playable mode. If you want to avoid it, then duos and ranked is still available. They probably didn’t make it an entirely separate mode because they didn’t want to split the playerbase— which would impact queue times even more (I’m already waiting 3-5 minutes for a game).

I get what you are saying.  My experience is that it is totally one sided most of the time.

As for the sword mode that's fine.  You think it's great that is fantastic.  i'm not saying getting rid of it.  Just don't force it into trios so you *HAVE* to play it.  I've not touched trios since I was squad wiped 2 games in a row with somebody with it.  Not sure how that's fun or balanced but to each their own.  Not sure why that is an issue, my suggestion is totally reasonable and in line with most other LTM.  I won't touch trios as long as it's there.

This used to be my favourite game.  But in the last week or two I find myself playing other games more.  I don't enjoy it anymore.  Played a session of duos for 90 mins.  Didn't win a single 1 on 1.  We were wiped every encounter.  Skill issue?  I'm a season zero player and I find it hard to believe I'm suddenly crap.  I don't know what is going on... totally unbalanced event weapons... magically becoming useless overnight.  But it's not much fun getting destroyed over and over and I am not sure what I can do about it.  The solution seems to be just to go and play something else that's fun.

As for your "wait time" argument I don't buy it.  They have done many LTM that are a separate option that doesn't touch duos and trios... why is this one different?  Why is it suddenly an issue now when it wasn't in the past?  End result, for me, is you have one less player now as I won't touch it.  I doubt I'm the only one.
