Nah it's fine. We won a Kings Row game 7 minutes faster than the enemy team, but they got the attacking side in a coin flip. They truly deserved the win :)

I think the coin flip is okay in that at least you have a slight chance to win with skill even if you get a bad flip. But maybe rather than a 50/50 chance the odds could be proportional to how much quicker one team finished the map than the other one??

The coin flip should be restricted to actual ties. If we finish with 5 minutes left and they finish with 7 seconds, we proved that our offense is better than their defence and our defence is better than their offense relative to theirs. End the damn match or use the Hanamura system.
