How this map plays
Two zones set diagonally opposite each other, one nearer each spawn, with tall bush spines snaking between them. Neither team can hold both without splitting, so the map is a constant argument about whether to defend your near zone or contest their far one. Rotations between the two are long and run through bush the whole way.
- The west zone sits high on the map, closer to red; the east zone sits low, closer to blue.
- Two tall bush spines run vertically through the middle, separating the two zones.
- A gap between the spines is the only direct route from one zone to the other.
- The left edge below the west zone is open floor and the fastest rotation on the map.
- Wall clusters ring both zones, so a thrower can cover either one without entering it.

Playing it well
- Take your near zone first and only argue about the far one once yours is charging.
- Splitting one brawler to the far zone is right; splitting two loses both.
- Rotate through the spine gap when you need speed and around the west edge when you need cover.
- Denying their near zone is worth as much as holding yours — a contested circle charges for nobody.
- Hold Supers for the moment they commit two bodies to a rotation; that is the only 3v1 you will get.
