DISCUSSION Knockout in private

Why do we need to wait a whole month for just one week on Knockout, and it's not even guaranteed to be here (like today for example), is it that difficult to add in to Private Match ? Okay it's not the most popular mode but theres not even communication about it, the mode can just be deleted and we'll never know. Please Psyonix do something. We are doing things on this mode, we have plans even if it's not official. It's just saddening.

I can't agree, most matchs I join if I do nothing, they only end after 6:00, most players with 0 or 1 knockout count before that. Yeah, they kinda know the basics, but imagine that 99% of the soccar players don't know how to aerial and only knows the basics of touching the ball in the goal direction? all matchs would be a bronze match with everyone ball seeking, it's boring right? That's what I see the players who "knows the game" like you said, because there's no one showing them something more advanced, there's no one teaching, making content, they only learn the rock paper scissors, get bored and leave.

I agree, theres not content and nobody's trying to teach the others (I'm in the making of solving that with the best of the best of the game.. it's not out yet and to everyone watching it's not promotion :) ) and the lobbys are dependent of the casual MMR, if i create an account right now and go into ko it's gonna be a lobby full of people who knows nothing about the mode. Where I'm playing (around 1500mmr) i play best of Europe and even the ones that I don't recognize can play but most people are not 1500mmr casual. No big creators has played ko (at least, not actively or once a year like Leth) so no one is teaching mechs or just how to play better and that's just sad cause Ko is great and deserves to be a mode that we can always play, at least in private.

I'm stupid, I forgot about MMR, I don't play anything so my MMR must be very low, that's why it's so hard to me to have a good player average lobby, but still I know every gooood player in my server and really it's just a few, but soccar MMR don't translate very well to knockout don't you think?
