The 11.1 arena map is very toxic to play on

Hello,

The new map has given me the worst and most frustrating arena PVP experience in my several years of playing arena.

And this has nothing to do with the expansion/patch/balance, etc…

The issue for me is that I never know if I’m in LoS and my casts will finish, from where I can attack and from where I cannot.

In no other form of content in WoW (PVP or PVE) have I felt I don’t know the ground rules and the game feels arbitrary.

The old arena map (with the bridge) was toxic too, especially vs some specs, but at least it felt deterministic - you know you’re either down or up. The new map is a mess

Please remove it from the game or rework it

The lines of sight are really janky and deceiving. Like the end ramps being los from the top by the pillar despite seeming like a clear line of sight.

Almost crashed out on a warrior yesterday for it in a solo shuffle lobby until I realized it’s not really his fault, it didn’t appear like he was out of los at all

i think this map very accurately captures the vision they have for PVP and the path forward

which is to say

No path available
No path available
No path available

getting a deep breath off in that map is pain if you’re anywhere near any of the ramps, which are 50% of the map

and of course, LOS

what pvper filled a survey that said they loved ramps and that we could use more ramp maps?
