The new map pool sucks

It already takes around 8-10 minutes and than you get either player who are 200-300 elo below or higher than you XD and shit maps. Would rather wait another 10 min and still get way worse or better player on a better map ^^

Yeah, I noticed that. Nomad games have the resources to support the Mongolian Death ball in 1v1s even if you have 1/3rd of the map.

Not sure if I’d call it good or bad. I guess Nomad has so much variance already I’d rather it be more likely to get set back up than less after a poor vil fight.

Please may we just have a ranked Arabia queue, random civ, without all the other maps.
Thanks.

I really, really dislike the new mappool. A total of 4 maps require you to play water if you don’t wanna put yourself at a disadvantage! That’s way too many. Water maps requires me to change all my builds orders and strategy for water, and it’s basically a completely new way of playing that i don’t enjoy. 1-2 water maps should be sufficient. Also since Team Islands is back, i basically have no bans in team games, since it’s a permaban for me. Golden Pit was great, i had so many epic games on that map.

Nomad should be gone IMO. I hate that map in general it’s WAY too random. That map is fine for Nomad FFA, but for ranked gameplay I hate it and it gets the X for both game modes. I would rather see 1vs1 BF back in the rotation than Nomad. That Acropolis map is another X on my 1vs1 list too. I can already tell you Tatars will be OP for that map using their hill bonus.

Heeell no.
You’re welcome.

So basically you’re saying, you’re incompetent when water gets involved and you’re not going to do anything about it. Stay bad then.

Although I enjoy nomad, this post actually has merit since the map can just be RNG and makes actual skill mean less.

I said i don’t enjoy the map pool forcing me to play water 50% of the time. 1-2 water maps would be fine to switch up the gameplay. The problem is in the quantity of water maps.
