With more than three players here this map gets a little insane so it is clearly reserved for one on one matches. Armor hoarding is imperative at this map; you can effectively nab one of the armor units, race to the next, grab it, and then rinse and repeat. The Heavy Armor is in the pit near the Railgun, while the Armor is across from it in the pit near the Plasma Gun. The Railgun is out in the open near the top of the level. The Rocket Launcher is tucked away across from the Railgun. The Plasma Guns are below the Rocket Launcher on both sides. The Battle Suit spawns in the center of this arena, but controlling it is hardly key to winning this map.
The bot here, Klesk, will fall on any difficulty setting as long as you continually dominate the armor. Focus on going from one unit of armor to the next while engaging Klesk in between.
The same tactic applies to human opponents, realistically no matter how good you are it is a serious challenge to beat someone with 200 points of armor while you have none, you need to control the armor to control this map. Hopefully you?ve been more than just a Rocket Launcher freak up to this point; the Railgun is the dominant tool here. This map is open so you won?t need to worry about constrained areas forcing splash damage on you, stay away from your opponent and pick them off with rails.
