HQ match question

We will probably be challenged here soon. What do you guys think are our best HQ maps? I just started thinking about this the other day and not sure what map to pick.

Backlot? District? Strike? Bog?

I know on District it ALWAYS goes to C and B the first two time for the most part. VGD

I feel pretty confident with most of the maps. Ones to stay away from are Ambush, Bloc, Countdown, and Pipeline. We haven't exactly had the best luck on some of these, and others (bloc) I'm just not too familiar with. Countdown and Pipeline have way too many variables to them to pick. Any of those maps would be good, Bog might be a bad idea, because on this map it can come down to spawns pretty easily. We don't have problems on Backlot, District, or Strike as far as spawns go.

I was thinking Strike, Backlot, or District since we usually win those by 200-250 points every time.

those sound good to me .. the others are way to random and we always seem to get screwed on them :)
like our tdm match hehe

bump...feel free to comment for future matches.

Honestly I think bog, only because we are good at the map and there is only one place that can not be easily grenade spammed if we don't spawn semi close to it (the market).

All other spawns, the far building, middle, A, all can be spammed pretty easy from a distance.

I think also that countdown is another good one. Again, same as before, no spawn point that can not be spammed with semi ease.

I really don't think it matters to be honest, but I would like to stay away from maps like downpour. maps where we cant really spam nades, don't have a wide open area to shoot people at and maps like wetworks or crossroads where we are forced to run 2000 miles to the other side of the map.

i agree that we need to stay the fuck away from crossfire/wetworks/downpour

Downpour is the only one of those 3 Id pick, mainly because having side picks and knowing one of the first 2 spawns it always goes to is a real advantage. Although, I hate that map so Ill never pick it. But those 3 are a given.

Our worst 2 maps on HQ matches were Bog. We won like 110-35, which we showed if youre losing and the spawn is outside, noone can cap it when you are spawning and suicide tossing 3 nades at it.

We started out 75-0 against another team and they stopped the map, yet when they restarted it they beat us. Bog just isnt that good of a map for HQ in matches against good teams I dont think as the battle for the one outside can determine a match. It also doesnt have a definite side advantage at the beginning like other maps, such as District and Downpour.

Weve blown District out of the water both times weve played it, mainly because we can predict where every HQ goes. It could have easily been 250-0 last night on District.

The team last night fucking sucked. To try and judge how well we did against them as a reason to pick that map will bite us in the ass. Against the team we lost on bog, did we play them on disctrict? I can't remember.

I think maps that spawn with the first node being who decides they get the spawns on their side is also just as bad as picking a wide open map like bog, we fuck up "one" spawn and the rest of the map spawns their way. At least on maps like bog (open maps, not even bog itself) we have a fighting chance to come back instead of getting spawn fucked.

spawn fucking is great when it works in our advantage, but it isn't going to every time.

I do like backlot.
I do like strike.

but other then those two I personally will always choose bog or countdown because now that we have decent sniping its easy to push them back. I have been doing nothing but sniping really for the last week except for some mp5/mp44 action on shipment so I can get headshots done. With bodom and iras both being good snipers also we have a good rotation for wide open maps to counter the other teams snipers.
