As someone who used to main PVP I had all but given it up on it the last few seasons due to various reasons(poor matchmaking/lobby balancing, ability spam etc..).
I then gave Solo Survival(which I had not played in years) another try. I had avoided this mode as I thought there was nothing to play for but then I realised there is nothing to play for in Control either. I have to say I came back pleasantly surprised with how good the Survival plays currently.
From what I have played this season, this mode has far superior lobby balancing with many more close matches and less blow-outs than the so call non-competitive modes. I also found with it being 3v3(which most maps are designed for) and some degree of SBMM in place that there is room to breathe, grow & improve as PVP player.
I now main this mode for PVP and I would highly recommend any player who is frustrated with Control and other non-competitive PVP modes give this a try. You never know you may not look back.

9 RepliesComp is fun at first but it gets really difficult as you climb. Thats the downside to sbmm, as you improve, your games get sweatier and sweatier to the point you have to sweat your very best or have a really bad time getting K.D farmed followed by a ton of tbagging lol.
