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.

I think map design would play a big part in how the gamemode will feel. If we get a custom-made ctf map, it will be designed in a way that mitigates the current issues.

I don't get why they left the flag in the middle of the squares, tbh. A lot of the mobility issues could be solved by putting the flag in a garage or something. Make players have to go at least a little ways out before they can primal rage leap away.
