I saw that while ago. I kinda like it, you have no clue who's gonna be a former level 15 or who's a true level 1 newb.
It's really showing in the rumble slayer results. 1st and 2nd place will be 25 and 23 kills. 3rd place will be like 6 kills, lol.
PS- That new Warlock map sucks ass.
EDIT: After playing more, is it just me or does it seem like they've changed the damage amount of certain weapons ?
Main example is the old charged plasma pistol shot then unload with another weapon once it hits. That didn't seem to take people down as quickly tonight. Charged plasma pistol to battle rifle in head of course did, but I noticed even once I'd nail someone with the charged plasma ball, I could lay into them with the plasma rifle until it would overheat and sometimes they'd still be alive. This use to never happen before.
