changedIntroThroughout the many matches that the community and I myself have played, it's generally agreed upon that 3v3 matches are the most fun. Games tend to be fast paced and it's easy to coordinate with teammates. In 4v4+ matches, the map tends to get overloaded with turrets, barricades, buildings, etc., causing lag and frustration as matches tend to stalemate and last 50+ minutes.
changedIntroUpdate 1.5.0 limits matches to 3v3 and brings you maps oriented for the 3v3 experience.
changedNew Map - The VeilHanging platforms, a vertical playstyle, and aggressive turrets inside of the wall set this map apart from any map that has been in the game.
changedNew Map - Water TreatmentThis map features a "Tri-Wall" that lacks a timer. Players decide when they want to attack, be it through entry point A, B, or C.
addedReworked Map - OasisOasis has been shrunk down significantly, catering towards the new 3v3 playstyle. It's aesthetics have been revamped and the map feels much more like a map, as opposed to a random assortment of rocks.
