THIS IS AN EDITED REPOST: This is the first post of many that I'll be making where I'll mostly be creating in depth round suggestions, but rn, its a discussion of the state of the types and amounts of rounds released each season to open some eyes.

As a legacy player who’s been around since season 3, I know the majority of the rounds. In this first post, I will be listing and categorizing rounds based on similarities, while future posts will talk about suggestions and ideas for mainly rounds (maybe Ill make a post about the horrible purchasing system).However, quick note. Variations and levels that come about due to events or LTM’s should STAY. Its content devs worked on and content thatll spice up the game. Aloy’s challenge, Spartan Showdown, and now what seems to be the Yeetus Challenge are all bringing new variations. Even that sonic round that’s been teased. They should stay. Variation is key in this overwhelmingly repetitive game. Ill be touching on this next time.

Now onto the lists.

Season Spreads

Round Spreads

Analysis: From this list, you can see that Season 2 and 6 are easily the worst balanced seasons. 5, 4, and 7 follow next. 1 and 3 are pretty set in the amount of types, each one having at least one and one final that follows its theme.

To make it clearer,

Season 1 lacks nothing

Season 2 lacks a survival AND final thats themed after it

Season 3 lacks nothing

Season 4 lacks a final themed after it

Season 5 lacks a team round themed after rit

Season 6 lacks a survival round AND final themed after it

Season 7 lacks a team round themed after it

I am of the firm belief that each season should have at least 2 race round themed after its theme and 1 of each type of round themed after itself.The next post I will be making will be a Season 2 idea of a final. As a teaser, my plan for the layout of it is to be similar to fall mountain and wall guys.

Also credit to u/Ren07gm for suggestions in making it more concise and for the idea of pie charts. Changed some of the classifications too for them to be encompassing for future rounds. Thanks for reading the original one, im working on the visualizations my idea for a Season 2-esque final. Sorry if this is kinda taboo to like repost something with changes but yeah.
