Bring back KOTH!
I can't believe I'm saying that, after playing it so much I got tired of it, but now I miss it.
Maybe I'm just wanting to get out my Kumihos and Hovers where they are effective.
It would be interesting to see which of the new bots would excel at KOTH.
Loki would have to be nerfed as it would probably dominate.

 kidding, but seriously I never like KOTH after playing it a few times. It’s just a race for bacon. Now, a match type and map where it’s designed as a race, like War Robots Mario Kart mashup . . . |

KOTH was never fun, in any of the countless matches I played, you cap your beacon, rush for center, whoever gets it wins and then both teams camp spawn waiting for the match to end, so respectfully, no.

KOTH when playing solo was difficult because a lot of people didn’t seem to understand what to do, ironically, not much different from playing any beacon modes solo lmao.
KOTH is a very tactical mode actually, and the teams who really understood the dynamics were the ones to win it most of the time.
I hope they bring it back

I want to run stupid light bot builds and dab on reds and blues. KoTH allows me to do this and then go stand in some beacons to gain league points. You haven't lived until you've ran an Ancile Schutze or ECU Cossack.

Sounds like a good idea, as long as I never, ever have to play it.
What were the wait times like when it was selectable?

I played KoTH with my Gary in good all days, and I miss it. That being said, the rules need to be redefined as it was giving advantage to one side over the other depending on which location the first beacon lit. There are other points to consider. In this damage-based honoring system, the payouts would be terrible. Also, as some stated above, in the current meta of War Robots with bots like Loki (and Phantom) KoTH would be dominated by a few select bots. That is already an instant turn-off for many including myself.

Loki would dominate KotH but only in lower leagues. When I play my smurfs in Diamond and a Loki appears that’s often the game. Most players don’t know how to handle it and the Loki runs in the open with impunity. In Expert there’s enough Blitz and Pursuers and Quantum Radar around that Loki have to be careful and can’t just dumbly stand on a beacon with 3, 4 or 5 reds around. Ecu Ancile Strider will be my choice to hunt beacons with other fast blues.

Ah, never really selected it in Android, but it was there for a few weeks. I guess that nobody went for it and they binned it. I guess that it would work okay in Random. |

I won waaaaayyyy back when I still had cossack in my hanger I played a game and ended up being the last of my team alive. I was in my cossack and it was my last bot so I bounced around getting away from the enemy team. I caught enough of the beacons so that I could keep my teams score, ended up winning because of time. This was on dead city mind you. I agree whole heartedly on bringing back KOTH. |

Boooo pixonic, BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Maps don’t make the Moscow money grubbing power renting pixel pimps money. They need to release more stuff like Leech and phase shift, so the paying fragile egos can get their fix. |

ya the original KOTH was a huge cluster F#ck! Let that stupid mode stay dead. However if they brought it back and had only one beacon to fight over then I might be down with that.

If they randomized the beacon order... maybe. This is the most important IMO.
If they keep all modes selectable... maybe. 2nd most important.
If they adjusted the scoring so that the ones who shot the Reds and kept them from killing the Blues that just soaked up points, just standing there, didn't get shafted... maybe.
But I would need all 3 to be true to even consider playing it again by choice.
IMO, YMMV
