1. New Map

[New Demolition Map — Lebrun City]

  • A rising coastal city in the south, Lebrun City is defined by its prime harbor and strategic location. As urban renewal accelerates, soaring skyscrapers stand across the street from aging residential blocks, marking the crossroads of two eras.

  • Strategy:

    • Control the mid-lane to enable efficient rotations and support plays.

    • Tactically placing Tattletales can significantly reinforce your defensive setup.

    • The sewer is a strong flanking route, but watch out for enemies using it the same way.
