I don't forum much anymore.
Anyway, I'll let you go with your "I want to win" instead of have fun-ness.
Maybe it's just me, but when I play I eliminate weak first and leave the strongest in the end so I can have fun in a great 1v1.
ie, If I had the opportunity to kill opti or join the fight with the other newbies, I'd kill the other newbies so I can 1v1 opti in the end.
