I don’t understand why you would have Slayer in Team Arena when it is already a stand alone game. If I wanted to play Slayer I would select it by itself. I don’t want to have it be a selection in Team Arena
I had this exact mindset a while back, but received input that players enjoy the variety within the gamemode itself. I won’t refute this at all, but it still irks me even now. I’d prefer if Slayer was slightly downplayed in favor of Strongholds, Assault, and CTF in Team Arena.
I personally view TA as a less sweaty version of HCS. Although that’s not always the case. I don’t mind having slayer in there but I would rather it weighted differently
Slayer rocks, it is Halo. How about get rid of Warzone and grifball.

While Halo 5’s implementation of Grifball is arguably the worst, it’s a game mode that’s been around for well over a decade and has been a community favorite inspired by a well-loved web series. How much more Halo can it get?

You can’t get rid of Warzone. That’s not how it works. Warzone has a massive playerbase and made/makes 343 a ton of money through REQ packs. It is also one of the main selling points of H5. I cannot see a scenario which would cause 343 to remove Warzone from Halo 5.
Grifball on the other hand… 343 did the right thing and made it into a rotational playlist. The population was really low.

This post enraged me significantly. Just because Slayer rocks and is the basis of Halo in your eyes does NOT mean it has to occupy practically EVERY playlist. I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again: out of every ranked playlist, there is only ONE that does NOT contain Slayer in any shape or form, that one being Breakout. Halo 5 has so much more to offer than just Slayer, so many great modes completely sidelined because Slayer apparently needs MORE attention than it already has. How can you never get tired of SO MUCH SLAYER?
Let me ask you this: if Slayer is Halo, then is CTF at Blood Gulch NOT Halo to you? Slayer isn’t Halo. Slayer is COMPETITIVE Halo. If you want to get rid of Warzone and Grifball, then you’re essentially getting rid of the little Halo 5 had to offer for the casual gamer. Halo 5 would be completely designed to cater to competitive audiences. I for one am FINISHED with Slayer, I will never ask for another game of Slayer ever again. 343, PLEASE remove Slayer from the Team Arena playlist, so I can for ONCE play objective modes WITHOUT having Slayer get shoved down my throat every 20 minutes!
