iOS AAA clan halfway to S. When we run TDM in squads, randoms get beat quick. Sometimes our DOM matches end up like TDM. LoL anyway if you solo in TDM just get your damage and kills in. Next...

Yeah, I don't know. Some like clubbing I'd imagine, some I think are fleeing more powerful clans, even though they are highly ranked. I've noticed that often whenever a squad I'm on loses, whoever is squad leader will switch game mode. Like they feel like they need to always deliver us a win. I can understand that impulse but I feel bad for the ransoms when we switch to TDM. My clan is only B-something though (I know only?? :-)
Personally I think it'd be great if S and A squads were restricted to Beacon Rush only, B and C squads could also choose Domination, and D or below could choose any of the 3 modes. And maybe only let mixed league Masters+ clans ranked D or less squad in Skirmish. Give each a place where they can squad and have competitive matches.

I didn’t want to come off rude or disrespectful but yeah it seems these are squads who get ran over in DoM and br So they chill in TDM. I’m starting to see that some top rank clans are following suit trying to catch these lesser clans. So TDM has become lame for everyone! IDK. |

If we are all champs, why call it clubbing? Some champs got better hangers and play to win. Just because you get your rear handed to you once in a while doesn’t make it not fair. Squad up with your clan and represent. There will always be someone better. Like I said get your damage and kills and move forward.

Don't want to spend big, don't want to get clubbed, don't ever stay in Champions League. |

Yeah, I don't know for sure and frankly mostly play solo myself. In the squads I've been in though, we don't ever linger in TDM, just do a quick match and then try Dom or BR again. Seems like it's the refuge of last resort, a quick attempt to grab a win after a real losing streak. But we've definitely run into S clans there which kinda surprised me. |

Squad up with your clan and represent. There will always be someone better. Like I said get your damage and kills and move forward. Well first off because the randoms are unlikely to be all Champs. Some will be Masters League or even Expert. Even if it was squad v squad, one squad could be just Masters because those immediately get matched against Champ squads. And lower ranked clans tend to have problems recruiting Champions to join so when their Masters/Champs squad they usually do so with some lower league players on their team. TDM is a bit more popular with the weaker squads, so a top clan hunting there is most likely gonna end up clubbing their opponents. |

Seeing a bunch of leeches using PS while spawn raiding randoms is not “playing to win” IMHO. But that’s just me. I’ve been on both sides and it sucks for everyone. Plus if we’re all champs then why not play BR and dom? It just seems like some players are using TDM to club. Just my observation. |

There will always be those matches sometimes where one team steamrolls the other, and it isn’t always clans or squads. Even a good stroke of luck with team of all randoms has the same results.

I don’t know but probably they wanna get their clan cups up in a safe way. Some clans like hood are fine because they are not maxed to the teeth and can be beaten at times. GRD is another tdm frequenter from what I’ve seen but they have much better gear. S clans usually duo there.
The thing what I see with tdm is if you run even in a duo which I often do the reds just bail if the score turns sour at the start. 3 out of 4 games end with 18 to 22 reds destroyed (something like that). Pix should fix this but they probably won’t because this sort of stuff reinforces P2W. Fair competition is not the name of the game. Pay money and feel good is.

I don’t play tdm so cant tell ya if squads are in it more.
I prefer to just play, and let the mm serve up whatever. Like forest says, ya gotta just take it.

Yeah, I hate those clans. I guess Dom/BR against random is not already easy enough for them, they have to charge randoms head on. They canâ??t even fight back, because their hangar is composed of 3-4-5 camper bots built for range. These guys are ?wee-wee?s, and if you play with your clan in TDM and never felt bad about it, you have issues. You are not better than the tanker clans down in Expert ruining Dom/BR. You are a seal clubber, even if you deny it to yourself.
Also, watch those videos with the so called "KING"s (more like peasant scum). They kept time dropping for several rounds and that guy who was alone always waited till we meched out before he dropped his first bot.

If you are squadding and beat stick leech party shows up, usually clans slum in tdm, especially if your not a full squad |

When I began playing, there was ONLY Domination, and I played in spite of the stupid game mode, but every time I spawned, I wished I could spawn onto the beacon I’d just captured, instead of having to fight my way off the beach again...and then we got Beacon Rush. Not angry at you, O-Pax, angry at myself - and frustrated. Kinda like learning my all-time favorite park - the park I drive past other parks to get to - is where the shootings, rapes and missing children go down. So, don’t chase the meta, don’t try to win, don’t play the only decent game modes, don’t complain about game management, don’t complain about other players, and don’t EVER mention the expense. Shut up and take it. Or go away. I just lost a solid TON of interest in everything but the going away. |

These top clans are absolutely destroying player experience. Can’t Pix see players could be or are leaving because they are sick of being clubbed? If player base gone, whales starve, then whales leave, then game is dead. I laugh at the lack of strategic forward thinking of this stupid company. |

Players just play what’s best Some have less desire to play a fair game than others |

Isnt it true that the start of a season sees lots of highest level players and clans rushing in to get cups or something? Like the first few days my damage and honor pounts are often a fraction of what they usually are. I play in very low Champions League btw. Maybe this is a contributing factor, that new season rush for points.

So what’s up with this new trend? I have my suspicions but would like to hear from you guys and gals! TDM has a lower playerbase so when I was trying to do the Honor for Kills/Damage task for Halloween I kept getting the same death squads. UNIT, NQ, Apex, Pi etc. I'd send messages in clan chat to have our squad get some revenge for me lol. |

Maybe they’re hitting ‘quick match’
Maybe they hit another game mode because stronger clans were smashing them in BR
Maybe they just like TDM

To be fair, full squads from top clans will smash in BR, DOM, and TDM. No place is safe. I solo BR 90%. When I do squad, it’s dealers choice as I’m not usually the squad leader. When clans cross paths, those games are epic.
Also, said clans are just trying to end the match as fast as possible and move on too. Remember, everyone gets a beat down in this game. You can’t win them all.

I used to love TDM and I played it 90% of the time. I joined my current clan and we are 60% BR, 35% DOM, 5% TDM. And NOW I get the allure of the beacon-based games. TDM can be an interesting chess game but quite often it goes the whole 10 minutes. When you are trying to grind silver DOM and BR can keep the matches shorter (win or lose.)
Yeah, EXIT has done it's share of clubbing and I'm not a big fan of it. That's why when I play TDM I tend to play solo and we get our butts kicked around half the time.

I have two things to say on this.
1 Some clans are now pressing the quick battle mode to shake things up. ( I have been)
2 We still run some TDM squad normally with less than top gear. Its my fun time to relax.
That is why you might run into me playing TDM.
Good luck and happy hunting all!
