Firstly the only reason these maps are good is because they are fair for both teams and some are just plain fun.
If anyone votes for maps other than these in matchmaking then they shall be spawn killed for 10 hours.
The maps are:
Zealot
Arena Zealot
Powerhouse
High Noon
Breackneck
Ridgeline
Select
Kingdom
All MLG maps

So by definition you consider all symmetrical maps 'good'?

Just because a map is 'fair' doesn't mean it's a good map.

Vanilla Countdown for example is awful.

Also, where are Synapse and Enclosed?

I don't enjoy Synapse and Enclosed. I dont enjoy much Forge world maps. The only good one in my opinion thats not MLG is probably Kingdom. But anyway what are your favourite maps?

Not including MLG maps of course.


The only time I play MLG maps is when I 15-0 you in 1v1s, so it wouldn't be right to include them alongside godly defaultReach maps.

I'm about as slightly above average as you can get.

Why the -blam!- is there water on Nexus?

I kinda agree with OP, But I also think that most of the unsymmetrical maps favor mainly the red team. Few examples:

Reflection ~> Red gets rockets and shotgun

Powerhouse ~> Red gets Grenade Launcher and elevation in getting rockets

Pinnacle ~> Red gets the freakin tower

Sword Base (Most picked map in TS IMO) ~> Red gets Grenade Launcher and shotgun and sniper

I might be wrong in some but Im just happy when Im red team

Reach has a lot of pretty bad maps but some of them are okay. The usual maps which most people mention in this thread come to mind, Kingdom, Select, Synapse and MLG maps.

To add to that I would say Powerhouse is probably the best asymmetrical map for Slayer, Boardwalk is pretty good for 1-sided objective and the Trident is a pretty fun BTB map when you aren't playing to competitively.

Boardwalk is actually pretty decent in Arena now. I've gotten decent games on it - it's about the same as Powerhouse for me.


Hmm Boardwalk I guess is ok, Red does seem to get rockets though, But I guess blue CAN jump around the window and get rockets just as fast, But that never happens and red teams main spawns are in the main tower area which sucks, Unless Im red team ;P

Another thing is Red team being spartans in Invasion Slayer, Blue team elites DO get needler and plasma Grenades, But thats crap compared to getting sniper rifles and Scorpions mid-game.

I haven't played much since Jetpack got removed but you may be right. I always felt though that Boardwalk was better in slightly larger games, maybe 5v5 or 6v6. Squad slayer or team objective would be perfect for Boardwalk IMO.
