Seriously, it’s the best Arcade mode from the mix. Super addictive and fun, well done Blizzard. Not to mention it would actually teach people to flex and actually learn other heroes. It’s really good for regular Flexers and works well to practice all heroes consistently.
Keep it as a permanent mode please.
It would? I mean a chaotic FFA isn’t really what I would call learning to play those heroes…
I mean sure you can get some practice in, but a competitive match is a completely different learning curve with a hero than an FFA match.
I agree the game mode is fun, but let’s not exaggerate.
It’s meh at best. I honestly thought Overwatch’s gun game would be fun, but it’s honestly a bit of a mess.
It will teach people basic mechanics with those heroes for starters. Better than nothing.
It does. But your original argument about how it lends itself to teaching people to flex in an actual comp game is a bit of a stretch.
Playing a hero in an FFA, and playing a hero in a 6v6 is an entirely different thing. However, I do feel that Hero Gauntlet is a great way for people to discover a hero that they never had considered picking up or using if the hero mechanics that favor them individually.
Learning the basics with other heroes and encouraging people not to be OTP is putting them on the path of flexing.
" A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
You are stating the obvious…
I think you seriously underestimate OTs in this game. They are going to OT because that’s who they are, no game mode is going to change that.
I hiked the entire PCT, I know all about thousands of miles and taking steps 
A lot of times on these forums, the obvious needs to be stated.
Credit goes to the community not blizzard. Community made it in workshop then blizz made their official version. Just giving credit where it’s due
Leavers ruin it. I’m at the bottom, no hope of winning, so bye byes. Love when games like these are canceled.
Actually yeah it is a lot of fun. Always really liked the makeshift gun-game modes people made in the server browser but this more polished version is welcome.
Making it a perma mode seems a little pointless though, seeing as players can just copy the code over to create a gun-game lobby whenever they feel like it.
No thanks, Normal ffa is better.
I don’t like the fact when you switch to hero that you are bad with you may not able to get kill and stuck with him forever.
I admit that I’ve left a lot of losing games, and quite possibly caused matches to be cancelled. But if it were up to me, I’d let the top 4 players win by default.
That’s kinda the whole point.
Sure, whoever made it originally.
Yeah, I don’t understand why they cancel games AT ALL, even the regular ffa ones. If there are less than 7 players and no backfill joins within like 30 seconds, the game just ends. It’s honestly so stupid and I cannot fathom their reasoning behind this.
Okay, so you’ve got 3-4 people left? LET THEM FINISH IT FOR GODS SAKE!
Well then it’s good that it is not permanent
Like I said in another post, it fun (or could be) if the mode used match making. All the matches I get in have some high rank skill just crush everyone. This will cause people to leave the game resulting in 4 people being left in the end.
Arcade needs to start using MMR for the games.
Yeah, I rarely feel like I get a fair fight when I’m playing Arcade. There’s usually a huge skill gap between the top players and the bottom players.
No thanks.
Wow. I thought it did… this actually explains why half the people in the game mode are on entirely different level, and the rest are just fodder for their race to the top 4.
Yeah, you are 100% right, it needs to start using the MMR for the games.
pls no, blizz version of gun game is garbo
