How this map plays
A big island map with the two teams facing each other left and right across a walled centre plateau, and water cutting off everything outside the island. Ten players funnel into three broad routes, and the northern and southern routes are long enough that a group sent round either one is out of the fight for a while. The centre is the only place a round actually gets decided.
- Blue spawns on the left edge of the island, red on the right — this map is not portrait-oriented.
- Water surrounds the island top and bottom; there is no route off the land.
- A walled plateau in the middle separates the two halves and funnels play into three routes.
- Long wall corridors flank the centre on both sides, forming the entrances each team defends.
- Bush clusters sit at the mouth of the north and south routes, hiding whoever committed to them.

Playing it well
- Fight in the centre; the north and south routes are long enough that whoever takes one is briefly playing 4v5.
- Send exactly one brawler wide to keep a route honest — two is a fight you gave away.
- Hold your own entrance rather than crossing the plateau; the walls do half your work.
- Focus one target on the plateau — with ten guns the first pick decides the round.
- When the ring closes, take the side with the wall corridor and let them cross the open plateau into you.
