Onslaught is just a Horrible Mess
So I, pretty much like anyone ever plays Onslaught because of a chest. As much as I hate this mode, I really wanted to get that chest so I decided to start to give it a go. And...
1 out of 5 matches were losses. It's not the fact that I lost. It's how I lost.

So the enemy team was a party of 5, while everyone in our team was Soloing. I even looked it up on Paladinsguru. I don't see how playing against people in parties is considered anywhere near fun. And this is supposed to be the 'Fun' mode.

Also, the winning system is what cracks me up the most. 400 points to win? lolnope
Somtimes it doesn't work, sometimes it does.

The overtime is just a joke. So in a mode where killing is more important than the objective, why on Earth is the overtime completely against that? Seriously. In overtime, whoever controls the point in overtime, wins. In 2 of those matches that I lost, my team HAD 400 points. Who the ♥♥♥♥ cares. Don't have the point? ♥♥♥♥ you. In my opinion, overtime should be removed from the mode as it is.

Hi-Rez actually knows how this mode sucks so much, so let's make them play it! Why not put a chest that will drop an emote for a champ you never in it, that you can take for free? The fact that they try to make people play it is just disgusting. Sure this time it's only reskins but it still is disgusting.

So, I hope you enjoyed my whining about this awful thing called a 'gamemode'. What you think about Onslaught?

I can't speak to your experiences, I haven't played your games, and sure I've had bad games in all game modes but I very much like Onslaught. I believe others do as well because when I queue for a casual game I pick all 4 options and it is frequently Onslaught that is filled with players first. Rarely Payload. Payload's the real unpopular mode, though I enjoy it every once in a while. I've just read about winning/timer/overtime bugs in Onslaught on the forums today. I think this is a new thing with the patch. About to go play, I'll see what happens.

I haven't played payload in a year haha now that I think of it :p
Only when I was just starting out a long time ago.

I just played a second game on the same map but it didn't happen this time.
Yeah, my Onslaught game just ended with an overtime despite the scores being 150 points apart. This is a major change to the gamemode and one that I hope will be patched back ASAP. 400 Points or Timer firm victory should be the way it is, none of this waffling, time wasting overtime.

Yeap it's just a waste of time and a random chance to still lose ur game.

It's a retarded change..
Also you lose VIP points by playing, Maeve can triple jump, sometimes you get stuck and cant move after respawning. Bugadins as always.

This is why you always wait for hotfix.....
in Onslaught the point should be capturable and change to another spot after said team captures it first to 3 out of 5 i think thats a far better Mode style then it is now the over time is realy dumb imo not just in Onslaught but how its presented in the game and payload i hate why add a mode that deliberately supports spawn camping, should be removed and replaced with arena combat like smite has

Well that could be a separate mode I think. it's nice to have a mode like onslaught that wasnt too serious.

I don't like Onslaught. No plan, No Tactic. Just Kill. Just Brawler. BTW it write Testing. This mode should be Fit in a PvE like Horde mode.
