Alloy does not make sense why you only need to cap A or B to open C – Does not seem to be much value in holding both points if you have to defend C.

I agree with Hildreth and the last is so hard to cap

Dustbowl competitive… the dream

And yeah, Alloy is terrible

s11 map test cup:

– pl frontier – Possible but only with major changes, although last point is really bad and hard to redesign.
– pl thundermountain – 3 stages, no
– a/d mountainlab – Possible, if people wanna try out 3CP. Needs major changes + the map is too small IMO.
– a/d dustbowl – Demo + Solly heaven, bad flanks, 3 stages
– koth nucleus – Too many opportunities for environmental deaths + Sniper dominance
– koth suijin – Too many opportunities for environmental deaths, clustered and easy to spawncamp.

How about Alloy ?
My opinion on alloy is that this is a cancer map, on a, the regroup position for offensers is too close to the point / regroup defenders’ position. On b, no clue what i could say, and c seems good. But the fact that defenders could defend both a and b is something good.

How about borneo ?
Very nice payload map which should be in the map pool.

How about coalplant ?
I didn’t have to play on it so idk

idk coalplant but where’s ashville?

Was already tested last time

The point of trying out Coalplant now was to see if people enjoyed Coalplant more than Ashville.

keikoku is a really difficult map. big sight lines and last is hard to figure out how to balance.

I’ve just filled out the questionnaire for the cup, and I think it could use a little work. There’s no general feedback box, and I was forced to give an opinion on a map that I didn’t get to play.

Regarding the format of the cup, I thought it worked well overall, but it seemed odd that we were able to play in all 3 rounds of the cup without once playing coalplant. Maybe change the order of the maps between rounds so that playtime is more evenly split between the maps?

Otherwise, thanks to everyone who had a hand in organising, and gg to Strong Opinions.

I’ll keep in mind the possibility of mixing up maps, it’s definitely doable with the current infrastructure (and quite easily, too).
As for the general feedback, that’s what this thread is here for :D If you’d like to offer some feedback but you’re not comfortable with giving it here, you can message me on steam and relay it directly
