declined New Use for Pro Pass (Deathmatch Mode)

[Tanker-Arthur 2,971]

Hello guys. As everyone knows, Deathmatch mode was removed from matchmaking battles and is now a holiday/event exclusive mode. 

Everyone probably also knows that HTML5 Tanki has made the Pro Pass obsolete as the HTML5 version allows all players to partake in Pro Battles, regardless of whether you had the Pro Pass or not.

My idea is to permanently add the Deathmatch game mode back into matchmaking battles, but make it Pro Pass exclusive.
As such, only players who purchase a Pro Pass will be allowed to play in normal MM Deathmatch battles, and the matchmaking pool for the mode will only consist of such players.

The Pro Pass Deathmatch battles give out crystals and stars like the rest of the matchmaking battles do.

Basically, DM mode will be a place for players to hone their skills as well as give a new purpose for the Pro Pass.

I know the forum guidelines say that "Changes to the actual Tanki Online to its previous versions, or ideas regarding the removal of updates" are not allowed, but I'm just simply suggesting a rework to the Pro Pass to make it have value once again, and Deathmatch mode is a starting point in my opinion.

Tanki abandoned many of its principles and main things, like DM.

Suddenly when I checked now to my profile I found the DM still second most game I played ( I don't play Pro-battles).

so I created a meme that describe the state now

Spoiler

Though I'm not with who asks to remove the supplies or GB, but also for sure I'm not with tanki in remove Mk skins!

Dm was removed from MM, and developers said, if you enkmjoed that mode, you can still play it as a PRO battle. We should keep it free.

Reason that Deathmatch was removed from the MM-pool was because the gamemode appeared to be least popular, only a handful of players used to join the solo-mode. DM was/is also one of the 'harder'/more challenging modes in the game and players were gaining less experience and rewards compared to teammodes. Also, Deathmatch still returns from the game from time to time during certain events so it is not permanently removed from the MM-system. 
Considering this, how would this idea bring change compared to the past? I am not trying to bother you or something, I'm just curious

Oh last time I checked, Pro Battles are free on HTML5

I was more so suggesting a new use for the Pro Pass for like a special matchmaking mode or so. And as a start, MM Deathmatch could be used.

And if players want an incentive to buy said Pro Pass, than the special MM mode could have something different to it, like slightly increased funds or a new leaderboard that showcases the top players in the mode every week.

Yeah, my idea suggests that the Pro Pass would open up a permanent DM mode that uses matchmaking for players to find battles.
Overall, this would be for the supposedly "Pro players" to play in, and in time, maybe new features would be added to it such as a leaderboard for the Pro Pass mode and like, the top 100 players in the world each week would be showcased and/or given a reward, but at the expense of a few thousand crystals for a Pro Pass.

So it would be a more competitive mode for which players have to "pay entrance" by buying a Pro-Pass? That does sound interesting, it would become a small-scaled tournament in which tankers can participate if they feel like it.
However, it goes against the principles of MatchMaking due to it not being free, and people may not want to enter due since players will need to buy a Pro-Pass in order to enter, - also, DM used to be one of the least popular gamemodes: especially with the smaller player-base the animo may be small... do you think this will change?

Overall, I find the idea refreshing. I would suggest it to be a weekly event in which people can participate, the battle will have a longer duration and tankers can win bigger prizes. It could be called "Arena" or something similar
