Lunacideid be fine with playing a different game mode if its more fun than 6v6
but i dont think thats gonna happen
I just feel like 6s flows so beautifully, and it's incredibly competitively viable. So what if it doesn't use all the content in the game? So what if there are items or classes or maps in the game that aren't played at the top level? I can't think of a single fighting game at EVO in which all the characters are equally balanced and are all played. Likewise with certain attacks, they just aren't particularly good for one reason or another. It's okay to take the most optimized, most skill-based, and most "fair" parts of the game and compile them into a competitive format.
And the best part if they don't even have to come up with anything new! It already exsists, it's already optimized, they just gotta throw it in the game and bam, we're esports
