what would be your ideal map pool?
For me: Ascent, Bind, Haven, Split, Icebox, Breeze, Fracture, Pearl, Lotus, Sunset, Abyss, Corrode, Summit
a smart person would realize that i eliminated 6 attack sided maps LOL. As someone who plays initiator and sentinel and some controller (viper/astra/harbor) and ZERO duelist, I hate attack sided maps. Breeze and fracture speak for themselves (deserved hate), icebox is so bland because every single team has KJ, Viper, and another smoker and every viper player, like me, uses the EXACT same lineups. Sunset is terrible for sentinels on the a site, and i basically always end up playing retake. Corrode is pretty similar, and the a site is just weird. Haven is 3 site, and there's 5 lanes of entry so it's incredible hard for sentinels.
ideal map pool
bro picked abyss and pearl over haven and corrode
yeah its called personal tastes BUDDY
haven sucks balls
twin i hate attack. Abyss and corrode are both attack sided, that's just personal preference. For me, it's way easier to hold sites as a senti on abyss, whereas corrode has like 1 trash hiding spot combined for both sites, and mid is way bigger of a problem.
Pearl is great for sentis and my fade lineups.
Corrode is very much a CT sided map
at champs last year it was roughly even, 53% attack 47% defense. But I would argue it's incredibly hard for sentinels to effectively hold sites (especially a); the retake is easy, hence why defense can get some rounds, but as a sentinel i like having site control.

Ascent, Bind, Haven, Split, Icebox, Breeze, Fracture, Pearl, Lotus, Sunset, Abyss (if this was removed from the game completely that would be nice), Corrode, Summit (aka ascent, bind, haven, split, lotus, sunset, corrode are in)
i genuinely hate icebox, breeze, fracture, and abyss with a burning passion, summit is too weird and pearl is monotonous. the last drop was between pearl and corrode but corrode kinda interesting so i fw it
breeze and fracture are so annoying lol. I know abyss is greatly hated (g2 jump hehe), and it is such a weird gimmick of a map with the sides, but i think it's up to personal preference.
I think summit will grow on people eventually (although they really need to do something about that tiny-ahh site)
