My thoughts on the new Update

Leaving out the Relic Delta doesn’t seem right to me, because it has dramatically wrecked two game modes: TW and GAC. Combine the Relic Delta with CG’s trash matchmaking algorithm for TW and GAC, and the result is that both modes turn into absolute garbage. Forget well-modded squads, knowing the mechanics, or carefully tuning your team’s speed order... basically, forget about “having skill.” Now it all comes down to how many R9s your opponent has to throw on the front walls so you can enjoy slamming into them helplessly.

And there’s a second layer to this mess... Relic Delta + garbage matchmaking algorithm = a perfect recipe for encouraging sandbagging. There’s nothing better than entering with fewer players so you get matched against a weaker guild you can abuse by stacking R9 front walls they have absolutely no chance of breaking through ... because, of course, they’re a lower-tier guild with no tools to deal with that kind of nonsense.  A brilliant strategy… if you’re fine with winning in a way no one could be particularly proud of
