If you're saying that one squad with one or two snipers can completely lock down one of those areas to the point where movement - leaving aside the push - is not possible... then I have to take you at your word, although that couldn't be less true for me when I play that map. So now I'm asking myself: is this "problem" real to the point that the map is really uncompetitive at higher levels of play, or are higher level players somehow more rigid and less creative in their ability or willingness to address the way maps play? I ask the question because I see the vast majority of players every single day who try to force the game to conform to their personal idea of how it should work, rather than adapting their own gameplay to the way the game actually does work. I assume this is an issue across all skill levels, especially when I see high-profile examples like the gold knock-down shield. This seems like that to me.

Thank you for the spot on post.
I have yet to be locked down by a Sqd.
game awareness, positioning and know when to rotate out of a bad fight position is what keeps me winning and placing top 5.
snipers are not all that bad when you know how to deal with them. At any level of play.
I have lead ransoms to wins because I identified a mid game bad fight and we played smarter by rotating away and on to victory, one cannot win every fight but if you play smart you can win some games and mitigate RP loss/gain by placing higher.
to many players are playing W for the loss and they do not understand why they keep losing when they push fights they cannot win.

I guess what I really want to know is: are you saying there's no answer for the Vantage Ult 3 stack, or are you saying that implementing the answer is either too challenging or makes gameplay into something you don't like or that doesn't interest you?- Gabrielmojo263 years agoSeasoned Ace@reconzero I’m saying, regardless of you learning the map for multiple seasons lol, in higher end Plat lobbies, with very good players, chances are you won’t be able to bob and weave your way out of these big open spaces with a good team having the jump on you as far as rotation. KC is a bad map for rank, not saying it’s not a fun map, but it’s horrible to go up against the current sniping rank meta.
