for me it's 3rd. behind frozen city night (1st) and caustic valley (2nd). despite having 4 weeks to drop on any other map vs just under 2 for tourmaline

I loathe Frozen City Day, so I'm glad I'm not just getting that map every rotation.

Being a sniper, I am in love with Alpine and Desert. But then again, a map that I directly benefit from, might be some bias.

Seven of Nine for me.

That said, I feel like it makes more sense to compare Tourmaline to (Frozen + Frozen Night) etc, since the minor variations do not really change the map much generally.

Tourmaline Desert 23
FrozenCity 20
Forest Colony 16
FrozenCityNight 14
RiverCityNight 13
Alpine Peaks 13
CausticValley 11
ForestColonySnow 10
RiverCity 7


So It's #1 unless I count alternate versions as the same map (like counting Frozen+Frozen night as the same map)

Second (24) behind Caustic Valley (27)

I don't know if this counts the times I played on Tourmaline before it was being tracked?

Honestly, Tourmaline is the first map I've considered hacking just so I can stop playing it for a while... I just dropped on it seven times in a row. River City Night at its worst was never that bad.

I haven't dropped on RCN in days. I actually miss it. That's how much I've begun to hate Tourmaline.

It's second to last for me. But I've only had about 130 or so matches in the past couple weeks, so it's had to do a lot of work to play catch up in.

So in that time it looks like it comes up about 25-30% out of those matches since it was released.

Good map though. :)

Well... I want to say I LOVE this map. There are two things I hate though:

1) Base Cap - It's way, way too easy to cap, forcing at least one team to play defensively no matter what. Or risk losing the match after winning most of the fights.

2) Frequency - Get it ALL the time. Out of 10 matches I've played it as often as 50-60%.

It's like Caustic was back in the day... over and over and over until you know it so well you dream about it at night but loathe it at the same time.

First, currently 6-22 above everything else with a total of 58 Tourmaline matches. It's also currently my best map, at 1.9 win/loss, and that's not counting the number of cap losses after we killed most of the enemy team.

Working as intended. They said with the patch that they increased the frequency of the new map so that everyone would get more of a chance to play on it. I recall a few threads complaining about how people never saw alpine in the rotation, so this was the solution.

I like tormaline and alpine.

A lot.


Of course I also favor mechs that go 80kph plus, if not over 100.
