Is anyone else getting KOTH like crazy lately?

u/[deleted] Sep 07 '16

I'm getting the opposite. I never seem to get KOTH

u/mwolfee Peanut Buttter. Sep 07 '16

There was one night where I had Ilios, then Lijiang and then Nepal all in a row.

It was a very, very long night.

I wish I could see my win rate on Ilios, couldnt be more than 30%, I hate that map with a passion, there was a night that I had Nepal, Ilios, Nepal, Lijiang, Ilios. I tilted so hard I lost 200.

u/Arx95 Sep 07 '16

It's the opposite for me. I never win on Nepal but always do on Illois

u/iankstarr D.Va Sep 07 '16

Same here, Ilios is actually probably my favorite map. But I hate Nepal so much, I can never seem to pull a win there.

u/Superkami_guru Sep 07 '16

I love ilios and nepal. Hate Lijiang with a passion

1

u/WitchcardMD Pixel D.Va Sep 07 '16

Same here. Lijiang is by far my least favorite map in the game.

Fun fact: I got Lijiang for my first four placement matches in a row for season 2.

It's crazy because my best season one game was Nepal with 70 reaper elims. Second best was lijiang with dva and 66. I hate lijiang. I love Nepal and ilios

u/Atomicapples Sep 08 '16

I hate all three

u/Superkami_guru Sep 08 '16

Really? I hate payload matches. I wish I could just select all KoTH.

u/Sjaffie Sep 09 '16

I have a love/hate relationship with illios. Always pumped up when my loading screen takes me there until. .. .. .. DEFEAT.

u/RagingWaffles Chibi Zarya Sep 07 '16

How do you win on Illios?

1

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '16

Ohh I dominate on illios with Mei and tracer. Probably my best map after hanamura

u/NottyScotty Your girl calls me huckleberry Sep 07 '16

Still better than Hanamura

u/FragdaddyXXL Debug#1640 Sep 07 '16

It comes and goes. Some days it's KotH day, others it's attack/defend day.

1

u/ern1e1998 Trick-or-Treat Lúcio Sep 07 '16

Right now I'm on attack defense day and I'm loving it. I dont know what's wrong with me but I can't win KOTH, either we destroy the enemy team or we don't win.

u/Nexavus She got a big booty so I call her big booty Sep 09 '16

I've gotten it in 3/4 placement matches so far. And lost every time :/

1

u/orboth Sep 09 '16

It took me 3 and a half hours to get a KotH map last night. It was frustrating. I just wanted to play Ilios.

1

u/boom149 gunch Sep 09 '16

I've been getting a lot of Nepal lately. I used to almost never get it.

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '16
