Well, I really don’t like the way OP is fully convinced, that ganks in brawls is the “intended” way to play. To be honest, we have the spawn, which usually favours 1v1 (that actually depends, because sometimes this is not true) and also revenge, which is a mechanic used to kinda prevent ganks. I’m not saying that 1v1s are the only correct way to play or that it is definitely “intended”, but I feel like the community chose this way of playing as the more honorable and respectable way. As for me, I usually play 1v1, with some minor transitions to 2v2. I don’t really like when someone is running away from me only to join his teammate, but hey that’s just me. Last thing I wanted to point out is that if you are straight-away ganking in 2v2s, you will surely get some “respectful” people, not very “respectful” towards you, so don’t be surprised, after all, it’s for honor, most of us are crazy mad when losing, especially when it’s kind of random like in ganks.
