So you play a BO2 on two different maps each week? Seems like a more interesting format than ESEA's two BO1s on the same map, with the map changing weekly.

Ya. It's league play so 2 wins = 3 points, 1-1 = 1 point and 0-2 is real bad

I guess at the end of the season all the maps are supposed to have been played an equal amount of times assuming someone in your group doesn't pull out

yeap. next match is nuke + overpass 👍

In some ways it's okay to have maps like nuke forced down your throat like this, at least it gives some incentive to actually learn stuff on it

I used to play hella nuke and knew smokes for both outside and upper by heart, now I know nothing

I feel it's important to play every competitive map, even if it isn't your favorite. Otherwise you end up like those guys that only search for Office. :(

Oz I thought we were Aztec bros, but here you are shilling for office :(



I also like playing most of the maps, but it's way better to focus on a pool of like 2-4 maps and get real good at them if you want to be competitive and/or build skills with a team unless you're in a situation like the esea thing where you are guaranteed to have everybody else playing the maps in similar variety

The cries of the dead are terrible indeed; you should try not to hear them.
Most maps are pretty good, but I don't like playing team orientated maps as a mix. I'd rather play a circuit of cache, mirage and d2 with the occasional change of pace than treat all maps as equals and then get stuck against Scandinavian stacks who live in scale model gaming houses of those maps and live and breathe only that map.

Especially loving cbble. Cool team map, true nightmare map against when you aren't organised.

This is exactly why we chose the Norwegian version of Home Depot as our team's sponsor
