Dont get me wrong the resetting of the stats and the playlists are all good but how can you not have a one-on-one matchmaking? Come on there are the team players and then the ones who play better alone. Even if head to head was the least played gametype dont take something that is such a big part of competitive gaming. Which confuses me that not many ppl played it considering that was how you truly knew how good you are. How can u tell how good you are when your playing with other ppl on your team? You cant. Head to head took the most skill out of any matchmaking playist yet, and as much as a lot of gamers that arn't any good at 1v1 want to deny it, you all know that its true. Yea other matchmaking playlists do take skill but not as much. I'm just saying bring back head 2 head for the die hard 1v1 gamers like me even if there are only a few of us.

I agree, I think that you have to have at least one playlist that doesn't make you depend on a team to win, and since they took out rumble pit, there arn't any now. There should be a playlist where you only have to depend on yourself and your skill.

Just make Rumble Pit ranked, 1v1 isn't particularly fair(host advantage and control of weapons and vehicles).

A couple things were wrong with head to head.

granted it was fun.

but

they had an oversheild in it <--- problem easily fixed
Host advantage <----can't be fixed
Newbs getting one kill and hiding <---not fixable, and would be worse now with the discovery and exploitaion of SOOO many different superjumps.
weapon whoring <---- which isn't really a complaint. but it is annoying. because 1v1 is all about who can whore the weapons better.

@ HaloFighter: And Rumble Pit IS fair? Come on! It's unfair for the exact same reasons. Someone with host in RP can own just as badly as one does with host in H2H.

fair, no probabaly not. because yes, the host can own more people in rp then in h2h. but at least the other people have the opportunity of killing other people. . . in h2h they non host attacks the host EVERYTIME. . . without doubt. . . at least in rp they can attack other non hosts. . . or side bust and get some stolen kills. . . or get the rocks and wait for people to fight and then kill all four of them. . . or get the br. and just pick up a double kill when two people are fighting. . . haha

wow. . . suddenly i hate rumble pit.

The thing is, you have more than one person to counter against the host, and the more the people the less chance of a single person getting ALL of the advantages. It's also hard even if you're host going against multiple people. And what Thor said about you can still have a fair fight with other people.
