    This is a unique soccer minigame in which the soccer ball is inside the hill in a king of the hill match. Shield doors keep fire and soccer balls inside the hill. Once the soccer ball gets moving, it can damage players and push them out of the hill. Players outside the hill can use firebombs to ignite the soccer ball and kill people with it. The game changes over time, over time the hill will get smaller, the soccer ball will move faster, brute shots and eventually a flamethrower will spawn, and late in the game, a second soccer ball spawns in the hill. The game creates unique and intense gamplay that can still be easily enjoyed by anyone who knows how to play Halo. Please post your feedback about it below.

    Required Game Variant: Fire Pit

    This is a cool idea.

    Yeah I like this idea too. I can't download right now because my 360 is broken, so I can't check it out for myself. For that reason, could you elaborate on how the ball moves faster as the round progresses?

    Glad you like the idea.

    The soccer ball gets faster because it is held in the hill by a ring of shield doors. After a while, the hill will shrink, and new shield doors will be created to keep the soccer ball in the new, smaller hill. This can sometimes cause the soccer ball to get stuck, so a new soccer ball will soon spawn just in case. I have a lot of changing map events setup, but they don't work well without the gametype, so make sure you get the gametype.

    I played this with you before, and the soccer ball didn't do much. Has it been changed in that aspect?

    You played it last week, there have been many changes since then, including that the soccer ball now gets faster, and more effective over time. Also, some players don't notice how you can set the soccer ball on fire from outside the hill to kill players in it.

    Reminds me of the map "Sumo" from Fusion Frenzy in the sense that the playing field gets smaller, and smaller.

    I really like the originality behind this map. Looks like it'd be a ton of fun for late-night-LAN madness!

    Wow, thanks guys, this had been sitting way back in the depths of the forum for a while, and suddenly, three new posts!

    Also, thanks for the feedback, and just to clarify, the hill only gets smaller once, if it got smaller again, the soccer ball would definately get stuck.
