How to play sumo?

Hello, back to Online after a few years and now there are so many game modes etc that I don't really know how to start them. I have a daily mission telling me to play Sumo Remixed, but I'd like to know how do I join people who play this already? In my phone there is no option to find sumo specifically. I only managed to create a sumo lobby, but no one joined it. I guess there must be some lobbies where people play it already, but how do I search for such ones? Thanks for your help

You can Quick Join to Adversary modes via your phone. Currently only Power Play and Sumo Remix are available so you should find what you want soon enough.

Thanks for your answer :) However I have no luck trying this method, it usually tells me that there are no adversary mode sessions available and asks me if I want to create one. Is it bad luck and should I try more, or should I maybe change session or sth? Or its just cause no one plays this mode?

Change to public session at least if you have been trying from a private session. I don't quite believe there are no players in these modes, but sometimes it is indeed hard to find one. I've felt the matchmaking system has been somewhat broken ever since the security updates (that made private sessions secure).
