So earlier today I posted saying that Fracture was my least favorite map and people got HELLA pissed. Just curious to hear from Fracture lovers, why do yall like the map? The reason I don't like it is because I think the map requires a lot of comms and map awareness to know the enemies position. Which sucks in solo q because teammates get mad at me for "comming too much". I will freely admit I'm a low elo player so it's probably worse for me then people in higher ranks. I consistently got killed from somewhere I thought was covered. Got really annoying.

Blaezey [#2]Fracture is actually funny because most high elo/ pro players like it and most low elo players don’t like for the same reason, which is being a more complex map than others. I personally like it (imm2 peak), but I liked it when I was gold too
I've personally always liked they map even was I was a shitter (still am)
nihso [#3]Comming to much is fucking crazy. I like it bc in ranked when something doesn't work there's a lot of possibilities and solutions to solve and win. With other maps like ascent if b doesn't work go a and if that doesn't work work mid for a possible split.
That's what I say. I don't backseat but I make a lot of callouts which people say is comming too much. Pisses me off beyond belief
laeDLaer [#6]high iq individuals know its one of the best maps to play AND watch in vct. exposed yourself
Did you just not read the fucking post. I said I don't like it because it requires a lot of teamwork and I'm in a low elo. I enjoy watching it I just don't like playing it.

icl i just read the first sentence lol
Fracture is a map that only favour specific group of player base, and easily the no 1 map that is NOT for everyone. It's the worst map for solo queue and the amount of time "pinching" strats cause 1 side of the team to always ended up playing 3v5 most of the time. My personal dislike of this map:
- I play mainly recon initiator, this map doesn't need it because it favours flash initiator more. I hate playing breach/skye and I always ended up forcing to play fade/KJ/Neon instead. (EG sova is the only special exception).
- Map is too perpendicular, defensive side too cramped, heavily favoured close range aim gun. I prefer map with more medium range/longer range aim that is more "open".
I don't hate the map as some others, but Fracture needs to be re-worked.
- Decrease the 'rewarding' pinching strats by resizing some parts of the map to be more open visibly from longer range with all these perpendicular close range fights. This would make solo queue players less hateful due to constant 3v5 outcome.
- Further distant the defensive spawn with the site (map resize)
- Make it more recon initiator friendly to increase agent use on this map.
Fracture is my favorite map because it rewards getting aggressive on defense and I'm very impatient.
My real complaint is that Ascent has never left the rotation after more than 4 years even though it's by far the most boring map. The meta hasn't changed since 2022 and half the fights are wallbang/smokes spam.
