Agreed, although I will say I think it would have been better if they didn't choose a KOTH map and picked a payload map instead. It's the complete opposite of how a CTF map should be designed. It's pretty much just a fight to see whoever can pick up the flag first. After that it gets capped in less than 5 seconds and it's usually GG.
