I tested it out, very consistant strategy based mode, takes the luck of the draw away and gives blue a chance vs red.

It can work the same in an 8player game

Share some thoughts.

I preferred it more when it was 1v1 NOT quick (if it was still here, I'd play it most often) It made long games interesting and tactical but with people who can't wait until a 20 turn (3people) game ends there's nothing to talk about.

With the 1v1q it sometimes becomes slightly annoying when 8 losing to a 4 becomes normal and an often scenario. Does not mean giving blue more chance though. Simply gathering larger numbers of troops is not that much of an edge in this game type.

1v1q seems to favor weak opponents, due to the 8v4 losing example. I'd rather just get it over with, one way or the other.

I am not sure what you are saying, 1v1 and 1v1q are exactly same, except you don't have to wait for all the rolls

Out of the 994 matches that I have played only one was 1vs1 quick. The only reason I even played is because I was curious on how it was used back when I was like a lvl 5. NOW I know better than to play 1vs1 quick.

Yes but 1vs1 showed you every roll, thus you understood what was happening, it was great for teaching new people, 1vs1q made me so confused.
I needed fiendess explained how it actually worked the same as 1vs1, before hand i was just more & more confused.

I would not recommend 1vs1 quick mode to any newcomer to vortexwars. (Unless you take pleasure in watching them Rage Quit in frustration.

)
