Current state of competitive play and esports

I like to see fair map seeds. And to the devs I hope they create a more symmetrical landscape or at least Create a competitive mode map like in aoe3 that focuses on fairness of the map generation.

Starting gold should both be safe or both be exposed. Etc etc with all starting resources. Sheep should remain random but even amounts each side of the map or a bunch equal distances from both players. Everything should be fair. None of the map designs suggest the map is intended to be asymmetrical so… dev map makers need to seriously address this issue.

Until devs do, tournaments at the high levels need to be on fairly seeds map pools.

Of course,I would add the campaigns that feel super generic and repetitive…the campaigns of aoe 2, nor do I tell you those of aoe 3, were more varied in that sense…
