Ashyri.5426 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Hey, I've read about it and it feels like red team is privileged by the proximity of Sword of its base compared to blue. I haven't found any actual info about this, not since this map rework. So, does red win more on ranked matches? Do we have the numbers? Well, what I'm thinking about is: if there's a considerable advantage for a team just for its side on the map, it shouldn't be listed as a ranked map.

Mikeskies.1536 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I do hate being on Blue because of this. Easy fix: Sword and Shield locations get swapped each appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malediktus.9250 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Or make both buffs give 10% dmg boost and 2500 hp. And only if your team got both buffs they get the special bonus (1 free revive and stomps) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unholy Pillager.3791 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 It's less likely to be a problem on this than, say, League of Legends, and even there the win rate difference is small. Honestly, if you win a major team fight at mid, your team is more likely to pick up the buff, no matter which side you spawn on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Balanced." That is actually really balanced. It isn't going to be exact unless you get ludicrous sample sizes. Amusingly, it's also slanted in the opposite direction from what people on this thread have been predicting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
