NB: This was just a post of me venting about two shit games back to back where the same player absolutely rolled through even when half of our team was pre-warned, but I wanna note that in general this trend of "one player gets fat then rolls the other team despite their best efforts" is something I'm noticing on my own teams too.
What am I meant to do when by luck or some other factor a player gets what you think is a meagre lead (1-2k) then spirals into an absolute seal clubbing?
When there's not surrender mechanic you're held ransom to ensure the winning team extracts their "fun" from having you feed into them until they decide playing TDM is enough and play the objectives?
I've had close games, equal games, games where we lose but it's a well fought, but recent updates have stuffed the MMR (or maybe cheating and smurfing is just common now?)
It depends on the skill bracket you're playing in and how badly you're losing I think. At higher skill levels there is a lot of strategic play around the urn, whether that's using it as a comeback mechanic or using it to deny a comeback and bait fights. But in lower brackets I definitely agree that there is rarely any coordinated play around the urn and that steamrolls are more likely to occur due to the lack of ability and game knowledge of the losing team especially.
