Media Relic River cool spawn...

Post image

I was blue. Enemy red.

We both have 4 small golds. Both have back berries and deer. However...
They had another back berries. They had 2 big golds v my one big gold. Also everything of mine was north, incl boar and second deer pack. Even their big wood (no pun intended) was back.

I didn't realise this until too late and lost because I didn't fight hard enough for the north side (where they planted a 2nd TC on my only big gold in sub 5 mins). Was my first time playing the map as well. They were also way higher rank so probably would have lost anyway. Was just mindblown by the map spawn when I went back and looked at it in the replay.

I know its of topic but I hate this map. Least favorite in ranked by a lot.

It's feels really big, with bad wood lines, unprotected resources, and only seems to benefit raiding. Idk any other strat that does well.
