Please don't hype for games...
They'll just fall short of your expectations and you'll complain for months.

It seems to me, 80% of the matches I play in lone wolves are guardian. Why is it picked so much?

I am not complaining about the map itself, just how much it gets picked.

(Pick is NOT when the map gets voted, it's when it shows up as option one or two in the map selection)

(Please do not say anything like "because it's a awesome map" or anything like it.)

You guys obviously didn't read the OP. Does anyone have like a coding reason why it's there so much?

Eat, Sleep, Row

Its not a "coding reason." I guess after release Bungie thought the map was getting good feedback and it grew to be a lot of peoples' favorite ffa map, so they changed the weighting so it shows up more in Lone Wolves. A lot more.

It shows up a lot in TS too. Which is bad because the map is horrible in team games.

I like guardian in 4s though... Its more fun and intense when the games dont hit 50 kills imo. In 2s though you get retards that run top mid and think there dun it rite

Guardian in 4s is retarded. All it is, is camping and nades. It's not fun.

I don't understand why people keep asking other people if they are a sugary substance used to spread on bagels and toast.

Guardian is a good map, so I don't really see why you are complaining.

I'm not complaining, It's just repetitive when you get it 8 matches in a row
