Now, this feels like Quake indeed, just as I remember it. The game also runs smoothly on my poor man's machine, despite longish loading times. The champions are varied enough to give broad access to different play styles.

My dealbreaking qualm, tho, is with the matchmaking system. Either they made a very advanced algorithm and don't have enough players for it to work, or it's a crappy one and they just couldn't care less. It's either a VERY easy win for your side or a VERY frustrating loss - balanced games are a true rarity, but when they can be found, it's an awesome experience. A shame it's 1 in 20.

Another annoying "feature" is the deathmatch/instagib vote - that's a bad joke on the players. I've seen a lot of people (myself included) just quitting when the vote does not match what they were intending to play. The justification that it "improves queue time" is particularly nasty when you have to enter multiple queues to play the game you'd like. Separate queues made a whole lot more sense.
