This is undoubtedly the most frustrating map to play on. I love the design; the designers did a good job. But I absolutely hate playing on it.
You start the game out and run towards mid. What is mid? It's a fountain, with water. And people will sit up in the fountain and try to be chads at the game, shooting down anything that tries to climb up.
After the grace period, you may go off into different directions. Many of those directions involve crossing lakes. What's over some of these lakes? Roller coasters. Why are there roller coasters over lakes? Let's say, theoretically, there's an emergency and the car that rides along the coaster flies off. What happens to the people? They fall into the water, and, because they're unable to remove the big metal thing that secures them, they drown.
That's not even the worst part of the roller coasters. It's the fact that some players are actually dumb enough to camp on top of them, acting like they'll be safe if they hide there long enough. And while that can give them a win if they're against equally as dumb players who die to the border, they'll lose against me, also likely due to the border.
None of the other maps have a massive "camping" issue. Other maps have very minor issues and don't go to the extent of Cube Park's "coaster campers". They're not even problematic―it's a 100% loss rate against any competent player. All they do is just further drain your poor controller's battery life. And it happens almost every game. Some idiot will climb to the top of a roller coaster and just sit there until they suffocate from the border. There's obviously no fix to this, but I felt the need to vent anyway.
I take back what I said about Ender Pearls being a good idea.
