or?
realize that I did make suggestions (as did MANY others) about having events based on wins instead of kills because some of us prefer that instead?
Like I said, make better suggestion than events based on wins. Find something that more people will enjoy than one or the other.

Point being, how many kill events have they had?
how many win events have we had?
They have had win events in the past just not recently, and why I knew they are not enjoyable.

I sincerely doubt one weekend dedicated to wins instead of kills once in a while is going to break anything around here. You get the exact same toxicity regarding kill events except it reads more like "Game sucks because everyone's more concerned with their kills than actually winning the match"
That hasn't been my experience. As the event goes on and people start to see completing it is getting further and further away they tend to lash out a great deal more when things are not going well. That and on kill events you don't have this nonsense of people afking and suiciding to such a large extent.

If you guys don't like the event, just don't participate in it. It's not like it changes the way you played yesterday. With a win based event you're playing in the same manner you were yesterday, trying to win the match. I agree 100% that they should have included the group queue for this but not at the exclusion of the solo queue.
With the type of crappy play this brings out with the "dbags" I find it hard to play in the same manner I was yesterday. The same can be said though about the other events. If you didn't like them don't play, and if you complained about those events don't complain that I am complaining about this one.

I'm still having a hard time understanding why we can have 10 events based on "kill everyone" but having an event once in a while based on "work as a team and win the match" is "bad"
Like I have said this win challenged isn't working as a team. It gives the illusion of team play and coordination, but it really isn't there. At least with the kill event last week everyone was making progress even if they didn't get the finishing blow. It was as much a team based event as this farce.
