Contrary to what a lot of people think about the Abyss, I really enjoy watching this map in pro play aswell as playing it. Not excited to see Ascent come back into the map pool after being in the game for 4 years straight.
Exactly it's actually so much fun to watch, especially compared to Ascent
In ranked though it kinda has that Breeze-ish issue where the map is so big and slow to rotate through that a lot of the time it just feels like a team diff. It sucks ass when you're defending A and your B or mid player instantly dies and it's a 4v5 retake against enemies that could be pushed up anywhere.
yeah the rotate times are awkward but the amount of different comps that are being used and the midrounding on the map is VERY enjoyable to watch besides seeing the same stale gameplay on Ascent. Last act I was Immo 2, and had a lot of fun playing the map with competent players who knew the fundamentals I feel its a lot of mid to low elo people complaining because people aren't using site smokes etc...
