And this mentality of "if I'm going down, I'm taking you with me" is encouraged by the format of the game, as well as what second place actually means.

Luckily as maelstrom I dont see this type of thinking too much. We usually always aim to win and make no real distinction between 2nd and 3rd. Even when the last place team is hounding us for no apparent reason, while we are in second, alot of us in the GC will continue to implore the alliance to not get dragged down to that level or give into that mentality and keep trying to get first. However once the spawn camping starts all bets are off since most people take extreme offense to that tactic and it often results in a relentless assault on the GC that tried it (even if its just one party independently trying to provoke another GC) and can even rage into the next immediate matches.

Anyway attacking a GC in first or that has 2 nodes via a pincer is understandable and (because of the way the mode is designed) is something you have no choice but to accept is gonna happen periodically. Its the tunnel visioning with no other intention than just screwing a specific GC that has ppl frustrated with this mode. I don't recall secure ever being this bad in this respect.
