Capping nodes in rated bgs

So as a player who has only recently returned after skipping SL and DF, I ventured into Rated Solo Bgs for the 1st time not long ago and discovered the new phenomenon of only being able to cap 2 nodes in EOTS for example. Just wondering how this is supposed to improve the gameplay? Does it even improve it? Personally I prefer it the way it is in unrated.

in unrated you are 15
in soloq its 8v8

I think it’s supposed to alleviate clustering and make people more alert and engaged in the game, so people rotate around instead of just camping a base all game

Oh yeah maybe this means it’s better.

15v15 had its issues, not that i would mind either tbh, carrying 7 or carrying 14 on eots not much diff

on some other maps it makes a huge diff… u cannot solo steal bases 1v3 most likely

U gotta live up to your nickname! 1v3 !!!
