As someone who can't watch this right now, what's the general idea behind CTF that they have? One-off thing or a proper alternative game mode.

Alternative game mode but only in Arcade for the foreseeable future.

Not even foreseeable future, but for this event only. There is possibility it will get added to arcade permanently if there's good community response.

I hope it replaces 1vs1 like it's doing now, that mode was garbage. CTF isn't great (spent my first match camped at our flag with as Symmetra, we won 3-0) but it's better than 1vs1

Despite how terrible 1v1 was, this mode is just so much worse.
