Developer comment: Defuse has been separated from Ranked and added as a faster Defuse-type game mode for the players who want to play more serious and tactical matches, but don’t want to play as seriously and for long as the Ranked Defuse game mode. Players can also still access the long Defuse game mode through Custom Games.
With the 5v5 party support, the Deathmatch mode uses the smaller maps, Brewery and Division because 5v5 felt a bit too barren on the larger maps.
All the new Quick Matches run with matchmaking that uses a behind-the-scenes skill rating, but it heavily prioritizes speed (matchmaking is instant) and you will always be matched to the server you have selected. This may mean that selecting a popular server will have more balanced matches, but regardless you should be able to find a match for every game mode on every server.*
NOTE: Quick Matches will change how Milestones and Missions are completed. Currently, Quick Matches and Custom Games both accumulate mission and milestone progress.
