there's nothing boring about ascent... one of the most enjoyable maps to watch and play, especially when quality mid-rounding is done by teams, you can have so many different approaches even with a "stale" comp
pearl is literally the most dogshit map in fps history, ascent is top 3 because they just copied the layout of cache from cs and its already better than 70% of the riot designed maps
People hate fracture cuz it playea different than traditional maps u have to push on defense and play retake alot
I get it is hard to play in ranked since noone listens but its my 2nd favourite map to watch
