only having a week between season end and invite playoffs is very worrying, well, unless they plan on making invite 6 weeks instead of 8 weeks. and they don't use the last two weeks as a buffer to reschedule matches

I don’t know anyone who likes clearcut, and product is very popular. Why is clearcut even in the pool? Do players in lower divs actually like this map?

-clearcut ,+the koth_ramjam remake a guy on tftv is doing
-sultry (dead map with no developerment), +cp_subbase

I think that active development is the #1 quality to look for in new maps, to the point where there is basically no reason to have a new/alt map in the pool that isn't being developed at least seasonally or every few seasons. We know that reckoner is never going to get updated again, so what's the point? Same with sultry (unless somebody volunteers). Clearcut would have to change so much to be more playable that it would basically be a different map at that point as well.

offclasses are hated more as you go down the divs, product incentivizes offclasses more than the other koth maps in pool

do the euros even play reckoned I don’t get why it’s in the rotation all of a sudden lol

give us back viaduct man the first season yall said “we’re going to rotate between the three koth maps!” I said it was bullshit to ever not have via in and look what we have here they swept the rug out from under us and now I haven’t played the map in years bc it’s always removed

swapping maps out of the rotation pretty much always leaves them dead, be it because players forget about it and move on, or because RGL won’t seriously consider adding them back (blands/gran, or the new maps like villa or sultry that get voted out once and then never return), don’t let them remove any other maps we like or it’ll be the same story

also why is it alternate maps for main / IM only idk why u guys do so much conditional changing of the map rotation based on div, might as well let us all use the alternate maps if we want
