Encourages team stacking.
I deliberately stacked teams and / or remained on the stronger side eventhough I could hop over but didn’t coz #mission.
Win X Rounds of Execution missions

Yep, the same happened before when there was challenges like “Win 2 Objective Matches”, these kind of Missions incentive unbalance.
Also, the numbers of rounds needed are too high, I got a challenge which was “Win 15 Rounds”, this is 3 whole matches IF you win, and the mission only gave me 750c if I ain’t mistaken.
The best thing to do in my opinion, is to replace those missions with “Get X XP on Execution mode”
This will incentive players to play well, and it will not incentive unbalance.

Totally agree with that.

The other problem with these missions is that they significantly increase the toxicity. If I’m just grinding my daily, I don’t really care how good or bad my team is - if the match isn’t balanced at least it’s over pretty quick. If I’m doing a “Play X Rounds” mission I’m hoping for a balanced match that goes the distance but a stomp isn’t the end of the world because I’m still making steady progress.
But when I get a “Win X Rounds” mission I will actively make the match worse with my presence. If my team is better, I will be absolutely ruthless about stomping the enemies to get my wins as quickly as possible. If my team is much worse, I’m going to simply quit and try my luck with another server, which only makes the stomp worse for my former allies. If teams are relatively equal I will probably get way too intense trying to get my teammates to adopt an optimal strategy.
And it’s not just my teammates that suffer - having the pressure to win enough under a time limit (either because I don’t have much time to play for the day or I want to finish before missions reset) puts me on edge and makes it really hard for me to enjoy the game. For the benefit of everyone I’ve learned to just delete these missions on sight.
