What should be basic modes being introduced as “event” modes and then being taken away once the event ends is not good and will not get people excited.
What we need are more fun modes being introduced as the event modes, for example for Cyber Showdown something more appropriate could have been:
4v4 or FFA Laser Tag
The mode could have been infinite ammo, bottomless clip shock rifles. No weapon pads, only equipment and grenade pickups. That would have been something worthy of being an EVENT mode and would have been very different to normal modes.
Or something with Sentinel Beams and hardlight as a whole.

Agreed. They’ve whiffed two events in a row with (quite literally) reskinned gamemodes, with Tac-Ops really being the only differentiator.
Fractures: Tenrai should’ve used a swords-only infinite ammo no-equipment mode with a neat name, and Cyber Showdown could’ve done something along the lines of what OP suggested.

Event modes should not focus on a particular mode, rather a concept.
Tenrai could have very well been an FFA with just Swords.
Cyber could have very well been literally any game mode, except with revives.
