Arean Breakout Analysis

So Arena Breakout is this weekend’s weekend playlist, and right out of the gate I’d like to say that I enjoy it a lot more than normal breakout. That said, I’ve started to notice a trend in matches.

Round 1-2: Everyone plays it like normal Breakout. Hunt down enemy team and if you can’t find them, grab the flag to end the round.
Round 3: Someone gets the bright idea to go for the flag first. Because everyone is busy hunting down enemies, no one thinks to guard against a flag cap and the round ends before anyone knows what happened.
Intermission: All players collectively realize that flag capping is a much more viable strategy.
Rounds: 4-End: Everyone goes for the flag.
