Gambit vs Gambit Prime

[Pseudolukian]

Which do you prefer and why? I prefer Gambit Prime because it's more chaotic and packed into one round. I don't like how in regular Gambit you can choke after winning one round and get locked into sudden death and run the risk of choking once more. Plus the armor sets.

Gambit Prime focuses more on teamwork so I consider it better. Normal Gambit I do solely for grinding bounties or pinnacles.

[Dosbilliam, Boring but Practical]

I tend towards Prime myself since only having one match means I can run off and do something else right afterwards as a palate cleanser.

Regular gambit is better for grinding pinnacles because you get more trash mobs to shoot

[Anti Homeless Rock]

normal>kill bounties
prime>match clears
the mode itself can ♥♥♥♥ off

[Petralicious]

Prime has better ideas like mote draining and only one round but armor sets can go f*** off

Both have light level advantage so they both suck

As blueberry: Gambit

In premade fireteam: Gambit Prime

Prime is better mainly due to the fact that each damage phase isnt a waste, you're adding stacks and doing more damage each time whereas on gambit, if each team has a very good invader and consistently bodies the full team while having the correct ratio of useless blueberries, they can take SO LONG!! JUST DIE!!!

I like both, but Prime - the players -, are more organized, at least from my experience.

Prime is better in PUGs, because if yours' or opponents' team is hopeless (as it's the case in 90% of matches with randoms), you don't have to suffer through that for round 2.

[Peek A Boo]

Prime so i can use my sets. And its faster.

[MOSLEY]

Gambit has issues. Gambit Prime fixed a lot of those issues and created its own issues. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I just took the plunge into gambit, more so out of the need to progress a quest. Wasnt as bad as I thought but im just there for get in get out, win or lose matters not but Ive not tried prime yet.

[Neil McCauley]

The Reckoning .... :)
Seriously, Prime all day.

[Kamikaze Velociraptor]

Prime is faster but the downside is you'll eventually get a dumbazz team which does not know how to play.

Try to do the 21% delirium quest. You'll see how frustrating the game mode becomes when people don't bank motes or don't know how to kill invaders.
