It fluxuates. There may be 5 diamond swords one game the next game will be different. Soemtime there is none at all (excluding the casino). There is a high chance of getting 2 diamonds at spawn, but very unlikely to not get any at all because there all tier 2 chests. Yes it does happen when you get no diamonds. I don't see how removing them and putting them on the edge of the map would help. But if you have read the book or seen the movie you will understand that if you camp the corn you get the best stuff.
I read the books :p

It's fairly easy to kill people with better swords, armor over weapons, my friend.

The number of diamonds are completly fair and there's easy to kill people with good sword if you got good armor. sometimes there are about 3 diamond swords and sometimes there are none. If you want too win the game you mostly need to go to spawn but not always if there's bad loot (no idamonds gold armor) so you can still win the game if you loot teir 2 chests around the map.:)

Hey guess what? I've played hundreds of games, looted thousands of chests, owned the cornucopia about 10 times (or shared it with a few team members) and guess what? I've only gotten a diamond sword 3 times. That's it. And all but 1 of them came from the center. So, your point is invalid. Sorry.

It would depend on your hit/dodge ratio. I'd prefer a a weapon over armour due to the fact that I have a sprint-dodge technique so, I don't get hits into me either way. But I'd prefer not having to hit 20 times with my fist (+ more due to regeneration). :p

Every game I have ever been in (a lot of games) there has ALWAYS been 2 diamonds in the centre when sponsors refill the chest and there has also been diamonds elsewhere in the map.

So, let ,me get this straight. You've played a couple hundred games AND you've only took control of the corn ten times? Honestly i don't see how you've played that many games and only controlled the corn ten times PLUS you only got a diamond sword three times? I'm looking at your profile and you have NO wins and you've probably played 20 times at MOST. Seriously if you want to "exaggerate the truth don't do it by hundreds.

The number of diamond swords are fair. It is unlikely that someone will get a diamond sword before the chests in the cornucopia refill. And once they refill whoever owns the corn will loot the chests. So whoever has the best gear, excluding diamond swords, will own the chest. So iron armour and iron swords are more important that diamond swords. Not only are they easier to craft as iron is fairly common compared to diamonds, they are not much weaker.

The amount of diamonds that spawn, in my eyes, are completely fair. I have only ever gotten a diamond sword once. I had it with full iron armour and I didn't win. I get a stone or iron sword almost every round and I have won 4 times so far without any diamond or iron sword.

I don't think that diamonds should become more scarce like you say, I think they should become more difficult to obtain, for example at the chest refill monsters spawn at the corn (and maybe other tier 2 chests) and you can't reach them without first slaying the monsters.
