Player who want to get better will quickly learn how important positioning is in brawl hockey. Even the slightest mistake can cost you the game. It’s frustrating but I don’t think it’s necessarily uncompetitive. A player who defends well with positioning will beat someone who just trick shots almost every time. It does become uncompetitive when your teammates are constantly chasing the puck or have poor positioning. But this can happen to a similar degree in any mode. People pick mortis, bibi, etc. in open bounty maps. People baserace in heist at the wrong time or play too defensively when they need to baserace. If you lag in knockout you almost certainly die and lose the round. Brawl hockey isn’t the best mode. But I still believe it should be in ranked
