There should be zero bloom game type in Invasion
The Needle Rifle is the primary weapon for Elites for 2 waves and they often have access to them in the first.
Therefore no.
Additionally, the maps are open only by virtue of the fact that bloom will slow down the kill-times at range allowing people to get to cover if they’re quick enough. Without Bloom it becomes a long-range spawn-killing-fest.
And yes, I can predict this without even trying it.

You could PM an employee, I remember they gave MLG all the gametypes like CTF, KoTH and all that for the MLG event and they ended up not using it, if you have a special reason for it, you could ask kindly, if not, patiently wait.
yea i should

They MLG didn’t use them in the tournament because they wanted to give the players more time to get used to the new mechanics, gametypes and maps.
Don’t give fqlse impressions.
I don’t think Elites would be able to get past phase 1 on Boneyard with zero bloom.
Spartans that spawn with a 4sk, zero bloom pistol, with easy access to DMRs, while the Elites only have a few Needle Rifles scattered about.

No.
Reduced bloom should be in Invasion. Zero bloom should not. As several people have already stated zero bloom would be far too overpowered in the first phase. Reduced bloom would be much better and far more balanced.
As far as I know every gametype will be updated to its latest version when Anniversary comes out, so every single gametype on matchmaking will have the TU options included
