It’s great that Grifball, Assault, and ball games are back. But there is something odd about the Grifball playlist. Unlike Slayer, Beakout, Strongholds, etc., the Announcer does not say “Grifball” at the start of Grifball matches. Why would you have him record ball-specific lines like “First Touch”, but not the quintessential “Grifball”?! Please consider adding that line in. Not every gametype may get the Announcer announcing the gametype at the start, but I feel that permanent playlists (let’s hope Grifball is a permanent social playlist) should get that treatment.
Addendum: also add back the lethal explosion upon scoring. The original charm of Grifball was that, no matter what, Grif always lost. At least have the scoring kill the ball carrier (Grif).
Im surprised I missed this
He doesn’t say Swat either.
I was thinking the same thing. You hear the intro music but no words
YES WE NEED THIS!
but if you have the ball explode and kill the carrier…then how else am i gonna pleb stomp and go killtac

The explosion should kill everything within the bomb’s radius (it is a bomb, after all). And kills via score explosion should count towards the carrier’s kills.
