Dear Swaty,

Mainline was not a fun map. At all. My team wasted hours scrimming and matching on this map, only to find ourselves in a stalemate on 2/3 as my soldier nOem cries in frustration and I start to have flashbacks of TWL matches on fastlane. There are a lot of things you will need to change on this map, because I refuse to support a retarded baby made from well and fastlane for another league rotation until there are changes made.

Please use this week's map, gullywash, as an example of what a fun competitive map should look like. There is constant action everywhere, there are original aspects on every single point, and the name is fuckin awesome.

Also, Lost finale was FINE, I wish people would just stop whining about it and realize that they are mainly just upset that the show is over.

Love,

djfivenine


Nothing really to add after my mid-season awards. So here are the rankings.

1. Team neXziL - LW: 1 (10-0)

Not quite sure what is going on with them dropping Hostile Faction or the other way around, but it looks like they have moved on from their sponsor. Their name sounds like half nexus and half zilla gaming? I also heard something about idemise being in the picture as well? Whatever, let's not worry about sponsors, let's talk about the team. Yes, Harbleu left the team for invite. Going to be very difficult to replace the top fragger on the top team in open. Rumor has it that the team is not interested in giving their backup, tehoreoz, a try at that roam solly spot. Instead, they are going to try out Warpy as well as try to lure some sollies away from their current teams. I guess I cursed these guys when I said they were going to have a perfect season. It is still possible, but with a new soldier coming in, you never know how the chemistry with the team will be like. That exult/unr match on thursday is a huge trap game for these guys. New map, new solly, facing a team with solid teamwork.

The maps for preseason have been set..

Since preseason will be matched up against the playoffs of other leagues, I wanted to get some of the usual suspects into the rotation so teams can use preseason to prep for matches if they so choose. Also we will be running all four game modes during preseason to validate the configs and get feedback.

So, without delaying what your interested in any further, here is the schedule.

Preseason:

• Week 1: May 30th thru June 3rd
  
  • Map A: cp_granary
  • Map B: cp_gorge
• Week 2: June 6th thru June 10th
  
  • Map A: ctf_deliverance
  • Map B: koth_viaduct
• Week 3: June 13th thru June 17th
  
  • Map A: cp_badlands
  • Map B: cp_gravelpit
