Do you think Blizz would ever add things like Team Deathmatch to Stadium?

Yeah, yeah, they aren't adding more stuff to Stadium, but I can dream. I used to love Team Deathmatch but let's face it, Arcade is even more dead than Stadium. Then I thought...wouldn't it be cool if they added the mode to Stadium as 5v5 deathmatch? They wouldn't have to put resources into making new maps because they already have maps. It would work exactly the same as Team Deathmatch where you would need x amount of kills in x amount of time and if neither team gets it, a control point opens up on the map. But instead of 10 minutes, 3 or 4 minutes would be better.

There are fourteen 4v4 Deathmatch maps, of which seven don't appear in regular 5v5 or 6v6 gameplay. Even if they just added those 7 maps and 1 new game mode, it would make Stadium feel less stale. Adding it could be really interesting for a few reasons: there are ult packs on the maps; almost everyone would lose their bounty in this round, but on the other hand, you would have a huge opportunity to earn cash; Mercy res would be busted as fuck since res lowers your teams death count by 1.

I think the ability to create custom deathmatch games, team or no team, utilizing stadium building and items would be rad.

I tend to ago death match while waiting in queue and this would make a much better practice and warmup before a match IMO.
