it's quite boring to watch ascent, comps are usually the same and it plays out quite similarly every time.

and it is always the same default on attack, kj on b main, kayo on a main, sova on mid and omen and jett on b link, thry arrow mid, knife short, sentry on b main and smoke on mid, all teams with this comp (the majority) play the same and makes it boring to watch

worst for me is probably bind. the best for me is breeze/fracture. breeze feels like aim training for pros which is always fun to watch, fracture looks like watching either really clustered, rushed strats or really well thought out, practiced strats.

Don’t say split.. you guys remember 23-21? What a legendary game, why do you see so many teams pick split in pro play? Because it’s viable. Only maps I don’t see often is breeze and bind?

Most overtime games happen on split aswell

Most long overtime games happen on split because its extremely 1 sided (CT).

Split is just too damn linear teamwise imo. Games like the 23-21 are historic, but it does kinda show the huge flaw in split : the defensive side (yes ik that after a while they could ONLY win on attack, boaster finds cracks ok?). When you see a team on split only get 2 on attack you go "man they need to make a comeback!". They win pistol and they almost guaranteed an overtime after 1 round. No other map has such dry sperts in competitive play. Slow work mid, slow work site, slow work heaven. Its just so slow. I see split and I just get bored. Also, I'm a color based guy (i know it sounds bad) but i perfer brighter maps and the fucking endless beige on split just kills my mood. At least Fracture has a green space. At least Icebox has a nice blue sea and brighter colors. Bind and Split just stuck in endless drab and it bums me out to no end.

Whoever says bind, it is the only map where you see different comps, like it has different teams playing different agents everytime. Yoru,Raze,Neon,Jett
Reyna(only tenz last year) for sentinel it is still different some play double controller and some play chamber, Acend plays Cned on Sage and fair amout of Kj and Cypher. For controllers you got all agents equally played and same with initiator where i think Kayo is played a little less

viper can also be played on bind a lot of teams run double controller comp on bind or double initiator (where most probable double initiator comp is breach,sova or skye,sova) i think kayo should played a lot more bind cus there are lots of lineups for kayo on bind

I guess we might watch different matches but across NA/EMEA the bind meta seems very established.
Raze like 90% only other duelists for those who don't have good raze mains
Skye almost always there
same with viper
Brimstone also almost always there, just a few omens and astras here and there
The only real variation I see is for those who play chamber/sage, or a second initiator with sova/fade/breach.
Also cned hasn't played sage on bind in a long time so theres that too, and the only time I remember someone playing chamber/kj was with fpx, and you know how fpx are xd

Breeze. So sleeper and no innovation. Just same stuff with aim duels and op holding angles all the time.

Split is the worst.
Haven is just kinda boring.
Bind is fine tbh.
Icebox is too slow early but makes up with some of the most entertaining postplants.
Breeze is just icebox postplants but with better midround play.
Ascent can be really entertaining or really boring depending on the comps.

so basically :
7 - Split
6 - Haven
5 - Bind
4 - Ascent
3 - Icebox
2 - Breeze

and with some of the best agant varyations, single best map to see different individual playstyles, a decent midround - great midround moments, and the single best map in terms of clutch potential

1 - Fracture

Fracture is so fun to watch when 5 individuals practice on it daily. Slow, fast. Heavy push, playing picks. Defensive aggression, strong site holds. ANYTHING GOES. FRACTURE IS TRUELY A BATTLE OF IDEOLOGIES. plus I'm almost 100% sure that through both NA and EMEA, fracture has the most clutches per match. Fuck man, anyone can win behind that fucking B pillar.
