How is everyone feeling about the map rework?

Definitely feels like the biggest change the game has seen since it opened up with it leaning closer to a MOBA now.

Today's update introduces a reworked map layout, alongside a variety of improvements and bug fixes. 


[ Map Rework ]
- The map has been redesigned around being 3 lanes rather than 4. This has a large range of accompanying map-wide changes regarding visuals, building layouts, pathways, neutral camps, air vents, breakables, powerup buffs, juke spots, mid boss, etc.
