Soap"steel is the best highlander map, it requires coordination and teamwork"
Because other maps dont apparently
Steel is quite similar to Gravelpit in that it really rewards actual coordination and teamwork more than pure DM, whereas with a lot of other maps you can skirt by just by out-DMing the other team. It's a map that is godawful to play if your team can't get their shit together, but for teams who can coordinate it can be quite a bit more interesting to play than a DM-heavy map such as Viaduct. It's good to have maps in the rotation that are quite different from the rest; it helps filter out the teams that have awful teamwork but are just individually better than anyone on the enemy team and teams that might not have the strongest dm but have stronger gamesense and coordination.

TwistedOsirisLKincheloeOsirisTwistedMr_OwlWhippedCreamwasn't coalplant kind of successful in highlander?
Asheville is the same map basically, but a little bigger.
And it doesn't look depressing.
Is there a non-arena map with the Asian theme? If there isn't, there should be a competitive map made with that set to spruce things up. :>
there's koth_king, but it's got a noisy background and it's just generally not-fun.
Yeah that's more the urban Asian one, I meant the one with the cherry trees and such:

I'm late as fuck to reply but there is koth_suijin_b3 atm.
It's not a map I think would fit in 6s though.
If anyone is interested in the map it can be found here I guess:

That's gorgeous. Does it ruin fps though? Some people were complaining about Borneo being a frames-killer..

I'd be okay with it if it was at least consistent. I get over 120 frames on most of the map, but as soon as I see the point I drop to 30/50, and with how soldier-and-spy-centric the map feels, I can only reflect or catch the Spy about half the time I should be able to.
