Are you still playing / enjoying Battlegrounds?

I am in P4/G1 ally and have the impression (after initial excitement) that it is slowly dying on most of the ally members.
So curious, if it is just us or if it is generally like this?

No, I have lost interest (rewards not worth the time, totally fed up with modders etc.)

IMO the cheaters only impact the leaderboard in a significant way. Just keep the board as it is — not tied to rewards — and maybe they’ll lose the incentive to hack the game?
I also get very frustrated while doing it. But that has more to do with my skill level
for me it feels like a stressful grind and not like a fun mode, but the rewards are good so i think this is a fair trade.
It got boring and grindy before it’s even officially released
I have a pretty decent roster and I love competitive games too. So I enjoy a lot.
But I ain’t sure if I’ll keep on doing them if the energy requirements and wins needed to reach the objectives remain the same.
Reducing energy cost per match to 10 (or even 5 if Kabam feels generous), and reducing wins needed for each milestone to 3 instead of 5, will make them more energy viable.
If they release them as they are now, the mode will sooner or later have the Incursions fate, unless they ante up the rewards to justify the insane energy cost.
PvP just doesn't click well with me for some reason .
I really, really enjoy trying to find the ideal counters to both the champions that are thrown at you and the nodes themselves. It does feel like everyone at my level brings about the same 30 champions (or at least 20-25 out of 30) every time, so I hope future nodes switch things up somewhat and encourage/discourage more champions.
But regardless, it's a very fun meta. Not only do I enjoy the fights themselves, I also find them very informative. I've gotten much better at fighting some high-level champions and found some unexpected MVPs that have hit way above what I thought their weight was. It is, in some ways, a sort of competitive training ground that allows you to hone your skills vs the most difficult defenders in the game. That's awesome! It'll probably be super useful when new content is released eventually.
It has also given me something to work towards in terms of roster building. With most endgame content done, I don't really have anything that I need to rank up champions for. BG changes that. I can rank up my champions in order to meet my BG needs, and that's quite welcome.
There's a wide world of gaming out there, and I play MCOC not because it is the only thing I know, but because I've played a lot of games, and while MCOC has its problems it is still the one I want to play.
I cannot imagine playing a game I don't want to play, just because there's no alternative. There is always an alternative. There is always hundreds of them. And I'm probably only aware of 1% of them.
