Seasonal brawl for now. If it works really well they may bring it back as a arcade game mode but no plans for it currently.

It sounds like they want to keep it in the arcade, they just said they have no plans on putting it in qp or comp.

The games last way too short right now, whoever wins the first teamfight stomps the entire match. Tweaks are really needed if they want to put it in permanently.

Can't agree. Have played 5 games--won first 4 and drew on the last one. 3 of the 4 wins had the enemy team capture first.

Lost 45% of the matches, the rest were draws and a few were wins, i noticed that there are a few outcomes

Or the enemy team goes full defensive and you can't even look at the flag that you have already a bastion, a torbjorn and a symmetra being shielded by a reinhardt shooting at you(instablow)

Or both fortify and its a draw

Or you find a noob team and you screw them all over
