I was rank 16 in LMS and now been pushed back to rank 27 due to some minor inactivity, thus being said, I've experienced LMS at it's best and it's worst.

I'd like to share some input on this update.

"For each game of Last Man Standing that a player leaves before the match has finished, they’ll receive a strike. After three strikes, they’ll be banned from joining Competitive and High Stakes games until the next day. During the daily reset, two strikes will be removed from their account – so if they were banned on Monday, come Tuesday they’ll still have one strike left over."

This kind of confused me because nobody leaves the game anymore? That griefing tactic was fixed by giving the griefer's opponent refreshed stats and inventory if their opponent were to logout.

In regards to the new map, it looks quite nice, however, very spooky and dark. The map however is way too large for 24 players, it's given the gold farmers who hide in corners or edges of the map a much better chance of survival. (Guaranteed at least 4 gold farmers per match.)

Also, can we
please change the LMS ranking system to number of wins instead of number of points
? There are so many gold farmers who I bump into on a daily basis in games that have reached an unimaginable amount of points just from hiding in games. This makes it very unfair on the legitimate players who are competing in the rankings.

Edit:
On another note, I've spoken to quite a few 1000 win cape holders, we've all come to admit that the cape slacks in design and standing out. The cape needs a design rework or add a new cape like a 1500 win cape.

Cheers, hope my input has helped in one way or another.

Forgive me for not understanding, but why haven't updates like the GE games corner thing been implemented yet? It can't be that difficult to copy/paste some tables from Burthorpe to the GE. Is it just low priority or something?

Alright, so the bot issue at LMS is finally fixed. For leaving a match before it's finished, you get a strike. Perfect solution, we should have come up with this six months ago tbh ;) . But; why on earth did Jagex remove the competitive worlds in f2p?! The problem with the level 10 bots is fixed with the penalties, why hinder the fair F2P players that want to earn LMS points in F2P? I'm actually surprised no one is on strike?!

I just loved playing a couple of hours LMS on my F2P only account... Please Jagex, you guys solved the botting problem already with the penalties. Have mercy for the F2P LMS players!

As promised in our Minigame Quality of Life poll, we’re introducing a new map to the Last Man Standing map pool: Wild Varrock.

I believe this statement to be incredibly deceitful. It implies that the map was polled and passed when neither happened. It was mentioned in the blog for the poll, which you are adding unpolled because the very nature of anything PvP failing a poll scares you.
Personally I think it looks like a great update to the minigame and I'm sure it would have passed. RIP Forums :(
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.
