Towers of doom - worst map by far?

So i enjoy playin jank and do crazy stuff with friends on either QM or against AI.

Everytime i see Towers of doom the entire discord goes like “AAAAAW…”

I have never met anyone that liked that map and it seems like blizz has a hard-on for it because it never rotates out.

I havent played the mines in months which is one of my favorite maps…

I’d love to see an option to mark with your team like “phuc this map” like on WoW where you can remove a BG from the queue.

Really sucks to see that this map is so poorly designed because the artwork and gothic style is amazin’

TL;DR Please, give option to remove a specific map from the bucket. Towers of doom makes me sad because it is garbage

You haven’t seen the mines in months, because they removed it from the rotation.

As for your idea, I actually agree with you. I have the same with Hanamura tbh

Yeah same here we absolutely hate towers of doom. I wish there was a veto function like in starcraft.

Haunted mines is out of rotation again, I guess they still feel it isn’t working…

As for TOD, its one of my favourite maps by far. Design-wise and music wise its so different, plus the raven lord and gravekeeper fighting? I wish there were more maps with that feature. in terms of gameplay? why is it bad? you moan you don’t like it but don’t say why?

I love ToD, but I agree on the “veto a map” part in QM and Unranked Draft.
In ranked though, it’s in the rotation so deal with it, it bring diversity to the gameplay.

Btw, the map I hate the most in ranked is Braxis by far, and I would trade Hanamura for it any time!

I think Tower of Doom is awesome and is in my personal top 3.

I am pretty sure it is not possible to put a veto system here, unlike Starcraft, you need 10 players for a game here, queues are already long ant lacks balance, it would make things worse and Blizzard is incapable of handling that.

Towers of Doom is the only map I refuse to play. I play games to have fun. Not to be tortured.

I would imagine that all of my potential teammates would prefer me veto that map than simply leave due to wanting to have fun in a game, rather than be tortured by a single map that I hate.

If I never saw a map I thought was at least okay anymore because other people hated it, I wouldn’t mind it in the least.

I get that you don’t like the map but I completely disagree. I would say ToD is the best map in the game BY FAR.

My reasons:

  • While other maps only have one way to win: push to the core. ToD have four different ways: Altars, boss, all capping and escorting pumpkins. Each requiring a unique strategy to pull off.
  • It puts very equal balance on importance of team fighting around the objective and pushing structures.
  • It has the strongest comeback mechanic of any map. You can still get back in a game where you are down 30 shots. In comparison, getting back in on other maps where you are down 6 buildings is almost impossible.
  • All merc camps are easy to invade and contest. No free merc farming.
  • The relatively small size is perfect for allowing constant rotations.
  • The door that spawns to the center makes it easier to back and get back in the action. A mechanic that honestly every map should have.

But I kinda agree that a veto option would be nice, according to your personal preference. I would 100% ban Blackhearts from my list.
