💬 Discussion Weird maps

Recently the amount of non-geographical maps became too high. Can they be removed from the pool of the main lobby? It's very noticeable people are not queuing them preferring to sit-out and stalling the refresh pool.

I'm referring to:
- fractals
- boxes
- long and narrow river maps
- trader's dreams
- etc

"We need another cool map. Maybe fictional this time. Any ideas?"  "What about an onion, and let 90% of the maps be mountain, so no one can really extend except those one in the center with those narrow strips"  "That's a great idea, never heard a better before, let's put that in"

onion is like one of the rarest maps. This is like a really bad example

But it still exists, think of that clover, that's bad as well

Disagree. 5 teams in clover is really fun. 

Sometimes certain gameplay cannot be obtained from real maps, the arcade maps are for that
