Absolutely abysmal design. Feels awful to play on. Please remove it from the map pool ASAP.

I personally think it’s great and I hope more maps are designed like it. Love playing Mei on it.

Finally!
Isn’t it just?
Been posting and posting on this very topic and every time, two or three shills pop up to say how wonderful it is.
People are entitled to their opinions, but the kind of things they were saying was transparently either trolling or shilling, at least IMHO. As I post this reply, I see one such person has beat me to it.
As for the map, it’s just so lazily done. A boring little box room at the middle of a low detail 2007 era WoW map that CS 1.6 would turn it’s nose up at. Not to mention all the recycled textures and a complete lack of class. At least the first OW2 maps were fairly polished. This is tragic.
Hanamura, Horizon, Gibraltar, Anubis all removed, in favour of this dross because of whining? Those maps are fabulous by comparison - you know it because they were part of what made OW1 so appealing.
The team that delivered those maps is no longer, and boy does it tell.

Well from my perspective, you are the one trolling bud

Nah, that’s the best map they’ve added to the game so far besides Esperanza

I don’t like the cave point, the other 2 I’m fine with

The map is wonderful change of pace from the sniper playground that many maps are. Lots of cover, twisting corridors, and accessible high ground. Excellent map, especially for Lucio.

Nah the worst map I’ve ever played on was Paris, that was just horrific. The artwork was fantastic-but good god being on attack was PTSD inducing.
I’m indifferent to Antartica, i don’t mind it. I like talking to the penguins though, they seem nice. The map art wise is gorgeous though, I love how it looks.
The map I’d like to see removed is Junkertown. I hate that map so much it’s unreal.
And to the poster saying that the people who love the map are either trolling or shilling? Grow up. Just because somebody likes something you don’t doesn’t make them a shill. Going by that comment alone, they have more common sense than you.

I like the maps but they are built like halo maps tbh and don’t suit the game as much as the other maps
Wide spawns, cramped battle areas… shouldn’t it be the other way around? The fights are a mess on this map

The spawns being so far away feeld awful. 80% of the map never even gets used.

I never get it in the map pool. I’ve only ever played it in the arcade mode because it never comes up.
I still get Push 50 million times, though.
I absolutely and utterly despise push.
I’d rather play push 2-3 times than play Antarctica once.

I don’t like the big one with the tall platform in the middle. Mostly it’s a rough map for healers to play (too many different ways for your team to LoS you as they’re trying to LoS the enemy team), and very sniper-friendly… but when you contrast that with the other two it balances out. I think both of the other two maps are good. The very small one can be super annoying with the wrong comp. In general the map series is just very polarized. You’re going to feel super punished if your team doesn’t understand map dynamics and how to pick their composition to suit each map.
I like the little alternate paths and small side areas that you can actually make use of in the right situations.
Not even sure why you’re playing OW2 at all then, Push is sick and changes up the pace from the usual mode.
This has been my issue with most of the new maps. Antarctica, colosseo, and midtown feel so big that chunks of the map never even get used. They’d feel big even for 6v6.

Blizzard wants the heroes to get more cardio. Give a good warmup before each fight.
I literally decided to log in and check the forums to see if anyone else hates this map as much as I do. It’s absolutely terrible.

Endless complaints about snipers and open maps followed by complaints of Antarctica which is essentially anti-sniper design.

It’s a bad map but I wouldn’t say the worst in the game
