Why would clans take time to learn all maps MCSG maps?
It's important to know the layout of all the maps because in order to be the best you must be able to win in any situation. You can't be called the best if you only win on Sg4 (or any other map that is overly played). The best clan is the one that can adapt to any situation and if clans constantly play the same maps over and over then how are they getting better as a team if they play like this? Repetition does lead to perfection but perfection is predictable. (That's why computers can not beat humans in chess).
There are enough clan battle maps as of now and it takes time to learn the maps.
The old/experienced clans all generally have great pvpers that know a large variety of chest routes. What's the harm of learning new maps/routes? Many people in clans send time having ffas and scrimmages why not dedicate time to new maps? I hop on many teamspeaks just to see who's online and there's people online seven days a week. There's time to learn maps and routes but people, and humans in general, are scared of change so they want things to stay the same because they feel safe and they think that getting out of the comfort zone will cause harm. Losing a scrimmage or a clan battle isn't the end of the world and clans shouldn't be afraid to try something new for the fear of losing. Playing on a variety of maps will only strengthen your weaknesses and since when is having too many maps a bad thing?
And the battles shouldn't be based off of luck because that doesn't prove the better clan.
The Survival Games are about luck. And what do you mean by "prove the better clan"? If you wanted to prove the better clan why not have a straight 8v8 in equal armor? That would be fair right? If you kill a guy from the other clan, in a clan battle, while he/she is under geared and then end up winning the battle later can you really call your clan better even though it wasn't really fair? You had better luck and were able to get better gear first. Luck is a big thing and if you wanted to get rid of it then this wouldn't really be Survival Games Clan Battles. Luck takes a huge part in the Survival Games. Based on the way clans play today luck does prove who's the better clan. And sometimes you have make your own luck.
Also if you are going to say these battles are a straight out 8v8 on the normal maps, you know very little about scrimmages and clan battles.
I know scrimmages/clan battles aren't straight out 8v8, but in an ideal situation both clans would either want a large confrontation between the two clans with all their members and have an epic fight or kill the members, of the opposite clan, early on and then clean up the rest of the members. It's obvious that scrimmages/clan battles aren't straight out 8v8, saying that I don't know that is very insulting because I said that the clan battles are based on luck which also means that you didn't read my reply clearly and chose to respond without thinking about everything I wrote.
On most maps both teams are competing for the same routes.
You're just stating the obvious. Of course people will go for the best chest routes.
That's all I'm going to say this idea of learning all maps is very dumb.
I never said that all clans should learn every map inside out. I just said that all clans should play all maps even without having any knowledge of the map because of the unique gameplay that strengthens the clans' ability to work as a team and adapt.
