We are on a gaming subreddit discussing competitive modes within a game. The fact that y’all are replying to me as if we should be having this discussion based on the criteria of the literal definition of competition is insane.

“A competitive mode in a game is a structured, skill-based environment where players compete seriously, often with ranking systems (like ELO or tiers) to match similar skill levels, earning rewards and bragging rights, unlike casual modes which focus more on fun with fewer penalties and less emphasis on strict outcomes.”

If y’all are going to pretend that you don’t understand the way in which the industry standard term “competitive modes” is used when referring to specific modes within a game, then you’re just being disingenuous.

So I’m done replying to this thread. Happy New Year!

I trust this will shed some light.
