I personally highly differentiate between Gladiator (and its rules) and what Glad CW is. It's as you said-- glad cw is actually cw without weapons. I dont see many elements of gladiator because everyone just peddle and run at eachother 3v3~5v5, but never really 1v1. I believe in this case the flip mechanic enables higher skillplay when not playing 1v1 that should stay, but i may not be the majority, so a poll is necessary.
