Default Idea for HA map rotations

Include in the altar map rotation a dodgeball kill count match. Dodgeball would eliminate any build advantage and force players to win based on skill. This would make it easier to kick the imba holding spikes once they get to the hall, as well as punishing mindless zerg players who are bad at the game. It would also be a nice break after hours of fighting spikes, gimmicks, and so forth.

If people enjoy it, maybe even have another dodgeball on an earlier map.

No, but the idea of putting dodgeball in the vault for people to play around with while waiting is great.

Hey I have a great idea, let's address pvp balance with a game type which uses none of the broken skills and removes any semblance of depth from the game play! Brilliant!

I seriously hope you're not in alpha.



Dodgeball in the Vault is actually a good idea, however.

Dodgeball in the Vault would kick ass. I would slog through the rest of the crap in HA just to get to that one map.

WAIT WAIT. I KNOW!

They should add a /roll command...so on every match, the teams can win by luck not by skill! It would eliminate all that pesky HA elitism and make things fair! YAYYY Communism!!!!

Terrible Idea, however because people play

spikes, gimmicks, and so forth.
i persoanlly dont see anything against it because, if skills are imbalanced they get nerfed. Also most "lame" builds are just "balanced" builds taht turn out to be slightly better than the rest and are then labled with "lame" slapped all over them. I dont think you can blame people for playing builds that they enjoy afterall games are for having fun.
