I did not defend anything, the concerns are valid, I just thought it was funny OP complained about both ease of escape and difficulty to escape in the same thread.
I do actually pvp some on my alt account, but obviously I only ever pvp alone so I don't get the whole teamfight experience. In my humble fellow opinion, the map is not that bad, and has many similar issues that previous maps had. I have used the permissions i have to make *some* changes to the map, but obviously I am not in power to do much else. I added fence carpets to the highway ramps to make them easier to climb up quickly. I also added some extra small exits to the sewers. My recommendation to you (and anyone else) is just to stock up on pearls. If the map facilitates pearls, it will drive the price of them up with higher demand. Be prepared for your opponents to pearl and try to keep that in mind when going after high value targets. It is healthy to have some differences between seasons.
Thats just my take tho, wether the map is good or not is subjective, and even if it wasn't, the map will not be completely changed any time soon. I will do what I can to ask for some fixes to some of the presented issues but no guaruntees.
