55/45 may as well as be 50/50, and the odds of one side winning 5 times in a row is 1/32, call me a skeptic but I really think the map had something to do with the win ratio
Would it be too obscene to suggest maybe a combat tiebreaker - at least its quick, and you cant deny it packs in the action..... Keep running combat rounds till one team wins twice - what say you my clanning comrades?
Given the seemingly inbuilt conservatism of our more hardcore members of the community, somehow I cant see this taking off...
