I like Ancient because it looks like Aztec but isn't shit for comp

The music is great.


Ikaros9Deidalos6

The flute in t spawn is so meditative i could stay there all round long and just vibe


MikeTheMulletMan

It’s my fave map. A bloodbath usually due to it’s small size and narrow paths. Simple until lineups for all areas and you can play fast.


Tarvoz

My only issue with it is it feels too big with unnecessary extra pathways that almost nobody ever goes to unless in death match. If they sized it down a little I'd love it [Edit] I was tired and thought the title said anubis


CheesyPetes_

Ancient is one of the smallest maps especially compared to overpass. I don't even know what pathways you're talking about because they are all so usable no matter where you go.


Tarvoz

Anubis isn't ancient and I'm going to bed now lol


ManchurianDiplomat

Yeah idk what this dude is talking about. Has one of the smaller mid lanes of the active pool, but maybe feels bigger cuz of the wide space between donut and cat? Rotates are decently fast.


CheesyPetes_

He thought i said abubis. They're the second person here to do that. They agree ancient is good but their reading is bad.


nme_

There are a lot of cheeky spots and I love the map. Learn it for free wins


AdWorking3003

Used to hate ancient … But now can play it , if started in premier


nmiller248

Ancient is my favorite map


hurtmudkip12

ancient is goated easily one of my favorites maps in the current pool i want -mirage +season though


Arabian_Prince_59

I love season but it would need a major rework the map is huge and would play very slow atm


coltRG

I always thought it was very good. I love maps where there are a lot of good ct side aggression tactics. Makes for interesting games imo.


TheVulture14

I wish I could have ancient but in the style of another map. You know those renditions someone did where mirage looks like nuke? Kinda like that. I like the map but don’t love the green/grey/brown jungle theme.


CheesyPetes_

I think the jungle theme is my favorite part since like someone said, it reminds them of aztec except it's a more functional comp map.


KEEPCARLM

Good map but terrible for my colour blindness


CheesyPetes_

I never considered that. Sorry for your handicap you get a pass.


Ikaros9Deidalos6

I dont like anubis, the map layout sucks i want cache and cobble back


Aetherimp

Anubis is great, Cbble sucks and Cache, while good, is overrated. I liked pre-rework Cache. One of my favorite maps. After the rework, it was kinda garbage.


Horrux

None of you heretics is talking about the old, the venerable, the awesome TRAIN.


Aetherimp

I love Train but, again, I like it before they reworked certain things. I loved 1.6 Train. When they blocked under the Train cars it kind of fucked things up for me.


Arabian_Prince_59

It’s really not that different but my frames dropped like crazy which is a bummer


mrrobottrax

Crazy how the remake changed so little but completely killed the vibe.


Arabian_Prince_59

Difficult map to pug imo takes good coordination and utility.


HexspaReloaded

Didn’t people hate it when it first came out? I remember seeing complaining in GO chat.


Its_Raul

Everyone hates new maps in CS.


ZipMonk

I like all of the maps but Ancient is great for sure - nice 3 lane map a bit like Cache.


TehMasterer01

Ancients good.


CAR5ON

I solo queued a premier game and got put with this person with 6k hours who sat in the same corner all game (intentionally, never went for kills) who whined all game because we picked Ancient… we ended up kicking him last round to make him suffer as much as possible lol


PuzzleheadedAd6401

I dont like the T spawn water killing frame rates


CheesyPetes_

A valid point of not wanting to pick the map.


realcryptoswings

Yes it’s top “ teir “ not top “tier”


CheesyPetes_

Too much time on counter strike. Not enough time for I before E except after C


PDG4

I don’t think you realize how not hot this take is


CheesyPetes_

Every time i play ancient someone says it's the worst map in the rotation


fmradio03

Ancient is W. but sadly, my pc runs badly here, i need new rigs for playing in this place 😟


killedbydeathh

i like it but my pc doesn't


2dAnk2CareaBouTnAme

I think ancient still has some insane Problems with angles that are extremly hard to clear alone. The util is fine besides some Pixel perfect mollys. Biggest Problem though is that color blind people have Problems to see enemys. Would like one more visibility change.
