CSK Suggestion Thread

This is the place for both suggestions on the CSK format and the way it is organized.

The current format is:

5v5 CTF with default settings.

Map pool:


The current issue atm is that matches can potentially last indefinitely. Suggestions?

 

gotta iron out the map pool and wait for the meta to shape. we saw one insanely long match and one clean sweep. imho too early to judge stuff.

definitely need maps with less resources though

 

Better maps

 

Less Lusty Avatars.
Put honeypots in the bedrock.
Separate Underground and Overground very strongly with bedrock, and an opening at middle landmasses.

 

Please elaborate on your suggestions, like instead of "better maps" maybe "smaller maps with fewer resources and maps farther away from the spawn tent, in order to reduce stalemate like we saw in x v y match round 2." etc

 

Less crazy looking maps, some of these look too intense for a competitive standpoint

 

I would strongly prefer matches with locked classes. I know a lot of people wouldn't, but I feel that it'll focus the team more and show each person at their strongest. I do think that swapping out classes during the round is also good (More realistic anyway) but like, idk. Locked classes determined at start just sounds smarter.

 

I understand, i guess i cant really say anything, i only meant that last map though.

 

Feedback from anyone is appreciate so long as its backed up by solid evidence and reasoning. Though obviously opinions with experience carry a little more weight.

So maps is the number one issue for most people. I don't really play CTF myself so I don't know what qualifies as a good CTF map. If anyone has specific map suggestions or would like to contribute maps please do so. All changes will be implemented next round of matches.

Also, what do people think about a 45 min timer? I mean I really don't think people want to play matches longer than that.

 

well i personally like maps that are straight forward and allow only one way to the enemy base. none of that tunneling nonsense :P.

 

Any ctf map that has alot of stone, ends up being a very long match, with 2 huge bases and a clusterfuck battle between them.

 

well i do, since i dont like the idea of playing a map for 45 minutes and then having it finished as a draw and then having to play another map instead

 

I agree with Verrazano, any match with more that 2 flags is going to last a lifetime unless the team is super pro.

 

We did just play a clan war this afternoon against ZEN and it was really cool.

About rules :

• 5vs5, 6vs6
• Best of 3 rounds
• Small maps only (i selected Snatchmark, MonsteriCTF, MonsteriCTF2, MonsteriCTF3, JTG_FirstBadlands, Rayne_KingArthursPond)
• 20 minutes per round
• 60 seconds for building phase
• Free classes during building phase
• Free classes during the match

It was short and cool.
