I theoretice there is a bug.
A bug, if you have all four modes selected, the match builder starts from domination always.
All players tired of 5+ min waits tend to check all game modes. So there we would have a vicious cycle.
Hard to prove by users, but the reality does support this theory.

A perfect of example of a positive feedback loop. You queue for dom since it queues faster and therefore dom queues even faster so it queue it more.....
Naturally, that's true.
But it still doesn't explain the total lack of existence of late EU ambushes or skirmishes.
Or same on Asian servers. Or diffuculty even on US servers.
(I have long history of trying to get the following and have dozens of screencaps showing extreme queue times:
- ambush: 10+ min waits, still no match. Sometimes multiple of those in a row, I have documented 33mins of queues and no game
- amb+skirm+dom: 10+ min waits and no game.)
There are two good examples which don't fit the positive feedback loop scenario:
* When Acquisition was new, there still was hard to get Acqs. I refuse to believe that within the first two weeks of the launce of Acqs there wouldn't be a single game/more than 1 game currently running!
* This Krin's event with 25 hack mission. People DO queue for skirmishes in order to get those precious hacks - but still Skirms are at times hard to get! Makes. No. Sense.

UPDATE:
Just a moment ago, on Saturday in EU prime time,
our squad of six did not find a match with all three Amb Skirm and Acq selected.
6+ min wait, then about 4min wait until added Dom into mix. Less than a min and deploying.

UPDATE:

6+3 minutes of queue with no skirm, amb or acq.
On third queue within 1 min skirm finally was found.
EU primetime. right now.

EU primetime. right now. u should write this down and keep track of ur deploy times and send me the data :)
That's helluvalot of data...
But then again, I used to take screencaps of 8+ min queues.
That recorded the date and time in filename.
Could do that.
