Should 24-Man Matches Be Longer?

[Kyani]

I'm sure you know, but the game does fundamentally change at the 10 minute mark: 72-man goes from 4 nodes to 3, and 24-man goes from 3 to 2. All of the game time that 24man loses is from this part of the game, where fighting goes from "discouraged" to "mandatory" because one team is guaranteed to be losing out.

Seal Rock-24 starting with1 node per team, heavily discouraging fighting.. then (often abruptly) ends only a single wave into 2-node territory, because being ahead at all means you'll win off that first node.

e: reading to the end.. maybe you didn't know? It's a huge part of Seal Rock.

Obviously I do know that, it's made painfully obvious. I don't even know what you're reading to make you think that, but okay? You can look at any of my PvP videos to see that I address that constantly.

And you act as if all games play out the same way (which never tends to be the case.) Fighting is not always discouraged in the beginning. Maybe if the tomeliths are positioned equidistant apart, but it's just as likely that they won't be.

Not only they should make it longer they should also add 4th Tomelith, as one tome for each depending on spawns can cause stalemate. So 4th acts like and carrot for all three GC's while also opening a window for 1-2 person "strike teams" to go and ninja lightly/undefended tomes while most are busy fighting for that 4th tome.

PS: Remove 72 and add 48 back! 48 was a sweetspot when it comes battleground type PvP, not too much but not too little.

48 would be nice. 72 feels a little too chaotic sometimes.
