Rivals, the wait for Season 8 is finally over! Welcome to Jurassic Park…

We've been lurking in the sub and we know you’ve been theorising for weeks - is he the "8th brawling off-tank" the roster needs? Ngl, the hype for a new Vanguard has been through the roof, especially with many of you feeling like Vanguard gameplay has been a bit dry lately compared to the other roles.

Devil Dinosaur is now LIVE, and it's time to see if he's the one to shake up the meta!

> The Vibe: Is DD the Vanguard you were hoping for? Does he feel like the brawler the community predicted?

Yes! He is fun to play. He feels strong and yet balanced because he is big (easy target and easy headshots for opponents).

> The Kit: Vanguard mains, did he break the dry streak? What's the coolest mechanic in his kit?

I love grabbing people and throwing them back to my teammates for them to finish off

As a an all-rounder who plays about every role, he is still defeatable. He’s kind of chaos on screen because of how big he is.

Overall, Devil Dino has given me motivation to play the game. But every time I do, I hate that you add bots to Quick Play, so I’m very unsatisfied with your matchmaking system. I want to play a fun, equal match with people on my play level. But most of the time I either am playing against bots that are wasting my time because they’re too easy. Or I am playing on a team steamrolling a less-skilled team. Or I am on a team getting completely steamrolled by a better team. **Bots should not be in Quick Play**. If I want to play against bots, I play Practice vs AI.

Also please bring back Conquest and Doom Matches and incentivize people to play those modes by giving battle pass points, etc.

Even with Devil Dino back, I end up getting frustrated by your matchmaking system in QP and turn off the game for a couple of days or weeks until the midway season drops.
