    No, because it'dbe easy for them to not try and break it back to prove a point. If they can hold top mid and win, then they proved their point. If we can beat them while they try that strategy and we do something else, then we've proved our point.

    That is so far out and I don't know why. Do it tonight or tomorrow night.

    Not really. It will prove that it can't be done when you know that all the other team is going to do is try to hold that position. At most, you could confirm that it's not a totally game-breaking issue. IF that's what Salty is trying to argue, then yeah, it's a legitimate way to prove/disprove it I guess.

    It doesn't matter if we know they're doing it. If it's op it will prevail. Otherwise we'll break it.

    It all depends what you're definition of OP is. There are plenty of positions on maps that are generally considered 'OP', but which can't be held if one team literally just tries to sit on it for the entire game. Sometimes part of controlling an area means leaving the area temporarily.

    Having a dominant strategy on a map doesn't literally mean that a team never leaves that dominant position. I realize I'm stating the obvious, but it's only because what you guys are proposing to do completely ignores this obvious fact. Of course, I'm assuming that Salty and company are literally planning to sit in that one area of the map and not move at all. It's certainly possible that they may attempt to cycle briefly through other sections of the map as part of a strategy which revolves primarily around controlling that one area. If they were able to accomplish that, I would probably consider their effort successful personally.

    I'm just explaining my personal experience with the map. No you don't want to sit in the red Y and C all game, but using that area to the best advantage you can is how I think the map will be played at the highest level. I'll see if the champs that will test Port 66 will also test Oblivion to get an outside perspective. If I'm wrong I'm wrong an literally don't care. I'm not a prideful person.

    Hold on, purelys message literally said "running back and forth top mid" am I not supposed to take that at face value? And your messages implied the same. Because now you're acting as if youre not going to stay there.

    I sure a hell don't agree with everything purely said. I made it very clear in my post why controlling the red areas and falling back into chapel when need be, was the most logical way to play the map and what was happening in the games I've played on it.

    Well as long as you're moving why do I care. You've been telling me this while time that just sitting at the top is the key to winning

    If I were to weigh in on Oblivion, I would say I preferred 4v4 on it honestly.

    Random, but I've always found it interesting looking at people's signatures on this site. What do you mean by "featured"? And I'm actually genuinely interested as to what people believe the top place to be featured is.

    Back in the day it was the ultimate best to be featured on Forgehub. Doesn't seem to have the same awe or wow factor now a days. That's not to take away from any maps that are featured now. They are obviously worthy.

    I just realized I still have a signature, lol. Doesn't show up on mobile unless you are in landscape orientation. I use to have links to all of my maps but I haven't bothered changing it since Halo 4. I have at least 3 or 4 maps since my last signature update but non are worthy to be linked lol.

    Just curious given. When did I ever claim multi was a big ****?

    Seems like your mistaking words I said for someone else's. At worst I said he can be egotistical and ignore/joke about negative feedback if he finds the source inferior to him. Can't see on Oblvion!? Must be the kids that had no depth perception in H2A LOLOLOLOL

    I'm done with this conversation and the shade throwing. It's just not worth the salt lol

    I don't wanna join the discussion here but I have too...








    Apples are very healthy Goat. Sure they contain sugar and sour stuff that's not great for your teeth but they massage the gums, remove plaque and contain very healthy nutricions as well. The good certainly outways the bad.

    So eat more apples. You probably eat anything anyway:)

    DUMPO

    Graphical Master of feces and sewage.

    Singlehandedly spammed a smelly infection map into some kind of weird cult status.

    Impressive.
