We just used so much time convincing Heroes Lounge to remove it from their map roster and now blizz crap us like this monkaS Volskaya is such a good map and braxis was fine. Garden is a PvE map like BHB and it sux.

Half a year of ppl forced to play this trash map in lounge and came to the conclusion that it’s not good for “competetive” play and then blizzard add it to their only “competetive” ingame league. Like how clueless can one company be?

Hanamura was terrible but i think it’s a really good map now. I don’t mind GoT as much as others do. Yeah, it’s not unique in any way after the re-work and that sucks. But it’s not the worst.

BhB is dreadful and even though i absolutely love the objective concept on WhJ, the fact that the map is so large you can’t even rotate kills it. I get that a map so big you can’t even help your team effectively adds a level of strategy that you don’t get on other maps. It’s just that i hate the strategy that it adds.

It’s not fun to just sit in your lane all match and feel like you’re hurting your team if you leave it because you’ll never make it back with enough time to soak.

WHJ is indeed too big, its so big that I usually just go with 1 self substain hero and never leave the lane, only for camps. I hate that this strategy is actually working

Is “stop playing ranked” considered as a tip? :smiley:

I hate GoT. Every HotS related forum has only been complaining about how terribly imbalanced it is since the rework. Braxis and Volskaya deserved better than this. I don’t really care about Sky Temple.

Good to see Hanamura finally put into the rotation. It’s a great map. But why they gotta do it dirty like that and bring in GoT

AoE heroes like Kael’thas and Jaina dominate the cramped spaces around the objectives. Melee heroes are generally a bad idea.

GoT is mostly a smaller no-boss version of cursed hallow.

Since the seeds need to be cleared, some teams can be slow to rotate down and choose to soak a bit longer while the other team deals with clearing the minions.

However, since it takes 3 seeds to see any value, a side could have 1 person troll the spot with range or summons whioe the rest of the team steals enemy merc camps far from the seed position.

Give-up (stall) 1-2 seeds to get a merc and soak advantage and the go ham for control.

Subbing out two decent maps for literally the worst map in the game. At least they softened the blow by adding Hanamura too, which is a great map now.

Luckily for me, I don’t play Ranked, and a mere leaver’s penalty is definitely worth dodging this map.
