    well as all of you have noticed ctf is a stale, ****ty gamemode and the only fun or interesting part about it, is the competitive scene which is also pretty bad. inactive teams, teams refusing to have matches, not giving chances to new players etc. well just drop the max size to 12-15, you can keep your friends in your discord friendlist but a team doesn't have to be home to inactive players. the max 25players was introduced back in the glory days where a,b and c servers were full, both eu and us. now you don't even see a single server full. adapt or have a slow miserable death ctf, can't wait to see you bleed out bye

    part 2 of competitive scene revamp coming soon

    This was brought up in the past, but I don't see how it encourages teams to make more matches. If anything, it limits the flexibility of match sizes and reduces the number of subs that teams may need for their matches. Personally, I don't like playing in anything below an 8v8, but even in an 8v8, sometimes most of your teammates may not be able to make a match and you may be restricted to 4 available players for example. Though, if you had more players in your team, the chances of other players being available to play are higher. Restricting it to 15 doesn't seem like a good idea to revive the competitive scene, imo.

    ^ Matches would be more difficult, and I don't think making matches more difficult to play is what the team scene needs. Not to mention how would you decide who stays and who goes one what team? What if I like almost everyone on the team? Why else would they be there if we weren't friends?

    I agree with what @Spades_ said above. People are on their respective teams for a reason: Whether it be they feel they are competitive with the group they have, they are good friends with their fellow members, or for their own personal reasons. I think mandating that teams must drop a few their members will hurt the competitive side of CTF more than help it. Players would get upset that they were chosen to get kicked off their team or that they are no longer on a team with their friends, which would most likely make them lose interest in the team scene as a whole. I think a rule like this would be more counterproductive than anything.

    imagine being mad for getting kicked after not playing for like 2 years straight. you know the server is dying when the mods are delusional about their product, you clearly have no idea about the amount of inactive players that are floating around in teams. you guys are too hesitant to make big changes and it seems like you don't even bother thinking ahead so whatever, i'm sure the damage buffs on the Mage class will make the game more interesting. bye hope you get your next paycheck doubled xx

    Bring player count on teams down will hurt many teams currently, but I do see upsides to this; new teams being introduced, team requirements becoming more achievable. I find it that unless you're a veteran. Or well recognised in the community, it's hard to make a new team compete with the already well-instated teams. It's a good point that you brought up talking about how teams slots have 25 because the three servers were always active and more filled with players we no longer have currently, but unfortunately, as others have stated above, lowering the cap on the teams we currently have now could only do more damage than good.

    Perhaps new upcoming teams that wish to become official could have their player count cap lowered to 12-18, and depending on how well that does; perhaps we older teams could transition into that.
