I’ve considered an idea that made the orbs a little more complex.
1.Having it setup so that when first place team reaches a 7k lead over second place a debuff would start on first place..
2.A timer would start off and count down for about twelve hours, within that twelve hours first place has to get all the orbs to stop the debuff from happening.
3.The debuff would be an over time gradual decrease of stats, kind of a reverse of the buff itself,where it would work its self up to -15% -150 stats if all orbs are not owned by first place.Having two of the orbs would negate it by 10% so it would only be a 5% debuff.
I think it would help with the morale factor knowing one team couldnt just run away with a lead unless they owned all 3 orbs or they would take a stat decrease making them bit easier targets.And in a situation where say first place has 2 orb and second place has their orb still , that would give third place free rein to come in and start taking first place’s stuff while they are focused battling it out with second for their orb, which helps further close the points gap of all three teams.
