May 2013 Standard Rotation (45 comments)

( Major News: QL)

Posted by SyncError @ 01:08 CDT, 6 May 2013 - iMsg

"The May 2013 Standard arena rotation is now online. On the first Monday of each month, we will be cycling the Standard arena pool. Rather than only having access to the same standard arenas day in and day out, each month we will now feature 24 arenas selected as playable for Standard-level matches.

Newly released arenas will remain exclusive for at least three months, but every other arena is eligible to be included in the cycle."

Standard Map Pool:
Start date: May 6, 2013
End date: June 3, 2013

Breaking news.

At least 24 people are feared dead and hundreds more injured as streets all across Russia have become flooded with seminal fluids.

KGBN News in Moscow caught up with one local man, 26 year old Anton Singov, who had this to say,

"DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Well, people whined continuously about ztn not being in the pool so there we have it now.
ztn + dismemberment is enough for me at least :>

There are some decent 4v4 CA maps, but ca players are idiots and never learn new maps so they don't even realize that some of them are better than crap they usually callvote. *facepalm*

Elaborate please. The only decent 4v4 map in there is dred which should be played by even larger teams

Everyone knows the correct strategy to play that map in CA is to camp BFG.

It was the only one that I could think of, also it's quite fun if the server is very crowded. Not to be played competitively obviously.

i dont compete anymore. but dredwerkz is all about the nadespam and the camp, the few times ive played it :P

Finally! The last CTF rotation was the worst one ever, this one looks promising.

<< Comment #16 @ 05:50 CDT, 6 May 2013 >>

By $\0/$ -xinnn-

i don't understand, if some maps are marked as CTF only, why not do that for all public modes?
Something like:

May Rotation

i have premium btw

Because, while ctf maps are suitable only for ctf, the others are suitable for any mode.

<< Comment #27 @ 07:18 CDT, 6 May 2013 >>

By $\0/$ -xinnn- - Reply to #23

if it's "suitable" for you to play duels on maps like terminal heights, hearts, evolution or something like these then tell me :)

What I mean is that you are actually able to do so while you can't play a ctf map on a duel server in any way.

Why doesn't everyone that wants to play just get premium instead of whining over the free maps. You got ZTN for free this month so just be happy!

HI I'M HERE TO COMPLAIN

id doesn't even care about CTF? How can I play CTF4 now? Vortex portal doesn't suit competitive map pool

CA no dm6 what were they thinking

Duel is dead now, no wonder DH didn't pick up QL after this month's public map pool. Only 1 map? seriously id?

K I'm done

<Hasd> hey sponge, SyncError, SyncError|away: thank you for not including a single playable CA 4v4 map in this rotation. Couldn't even include one qzca* map? Stupid motherfuckers. I don't know why I even bought this shit, pubs are what keep this game alive in the first place since barely anyone plays premium.
<Steve\Jobs> with this rotation, there are lots of people playing ztn in 4v4 ca
<@SyncError> The rotation is a bit tight this month for CA, but it has some good maps.
<@SyncError> Played Demon Keep, Purgatory, and Warehouse earlier. Was fun. I never have cared too much for Demon Keep myself, but those three were all still good CA 4v4 pub maps.

Yup, and I look forward to playing tomorrow as well when one more map is introduced to the CA Standard Pool. :)
