No, not really. Imo Route 66 and King’s row are both perfect

Route 66??? Why is that perfect in your eyes?

2 routes, a cliff, 2 high grounds on the first point. (Also the big sign for defenders to combine sprays…)
Second area with lots of buildings/pathways. Its always fun there.
The last point can also be fun.
Its just a good contrast to maps like Eichenwalde or Paris which have chokepoints of death.

Yes. Impossible to push and impossible to defend idk why.
First point of Route 66 and last point of King’s Row are my least favorite points on escort maps, I think. Eichenwald throughout is neither good nor bad (so good by default cuz it’z ezz-court 
).

Last point dorado is horrible unless you snowball it’s so hard to mount a push there

King’s row last point is a pain to deal with, but usually a lot of big plays and transitions happen there.

That is true. That, the castle gate on Eichenwald, first point on Blizzard World, and that big open killbox just before the goal on Rialto. That’s all the escort/hybrid maps, I think.
In fact, come to think of it, I think the hybrid maps are generally better than the escort ones.

I think the first point of Numbani is so awful. Especially when you lose it, you have to walk to the payload from literal africa

That’s basically every last point of every map though 
As a tank player actually yeah. It’s giving me nightmares sometimes. The defense is nice especially if you go Hog, but on attack if the opponents park an Ashe/Hanzo or Widow/Mercy on the high ground while they rock the Rein/Zarya combo and have a Baptiste behind them, if they’re Master+ that becomes a nightmare to deal with if your DPS don’t play heroes who can take that high ground because then you’ll be forced to go Winston/D.va/Ball which is not pretty at all. Otherwise your DPS/Supports are just going to get freepicked and you’ll lose all the teamfights to that

Yeh any map with decent high ground becomes horrible to play against, Gibraltar second point has gotta be the worst to push up against when they’ve got Ashe hanzo widow etc.

No it’s the only perfect map, where you can play literally every hero.
Isn’t like Havana where or you go hitscans or you have to struggle 10 times more.

I really like 3rd cause Genji, tracer, and Hanzo are good there.

You can be bad at widow and still get value with her on Havana it’s so dumb

I like it, The verticality is pretty good for a map part of it’s size, with the gap being great to use for manoeuvring or just for environmentals. First corner defences can be tough to push through sometimes but there are flanks & high ground the attackers (and defenders) can use.
It has some similarities to Blizzard World 3rd point, it’s one of the things that makes that map more enjoyable to play for me.
True ngl, they are all horrible
Dorado is the most annoying because it feels like you never cap it apart from when you snowball
