dont quite know why?

my first point is that breakout us supposed to be an elimination gametype,the flag kinda ruins that. Second is that I feel like breakout could be a competitive mode(I actually thought it was until I found out there was a flag in it before halo 5 came out) so without the flag in breakout maybe most of the pros wouldn’t of ruled in favor of it’s removal in MLG. I know I’m really late on this lol but I’ve just recently started playing breakout alot

do you know how many times i was able to bait the other player to come out in a duel by grabbing the flag and faking a cap?
The flag makes it more strategic and it makes perfect sense to have it there.
