Of course, I'll play, whether there are entry fees or not, it doesn't really matter.

Based on my first impression, this blockbuster is terribly boring.

Extreem II is absurd; the guards in the adjacent treasure room are 135, while in comparison, the guards in the GO map are 40. This will definitely result in a long game, lasting more than 2 months. Clash of Dragons is quite interesting, but it's also not a fast map: there's a lot of snow and powerful guards protecting the passages between zones. I agree with replacing Spider with Blockbuster; it's a good template, playable, and well-tested in the Polish league.

for some, it's well-worn territory, while for others, all these templates fall into the category of "What is this?"

Blockbuster is a kind of balance for XL size maps. If you're going to use Blockbuster, use it instead of balance. In my opinion, if you have to choose between Spider and 6LM10, choose 6LM10. If the choice is between Blockbuster and Spider, then Spider is the clear winner.

I think few people have experience playing it, and that's what makes it interesting – something new. Besides, there's a clear scheme for orientation, and what else do you need?

As far as I remember, Blockbuster was a disaster in terms of balance and gameplay. It encouraged slow, camping-style gameplay.

Blockbuster is closer to Jebus than to Balance - it's much richer, and it often generates utopias, which are practically non-existent on Balance. Before writing about it, it would have been worth at least familiarizing yourself with it.

What makes it resemble Jebus, is it the sand? Because sand is also present in the balance. Poor native respawn points and rich, off-road areas, treasures – the only difference is that there are two treasures instead of one. I'm not arguing, any template can be played, but I've already expressed my opinion. I don't want to have two poor templates to choose from at the same time.

Yes, the main thing is that a "blockbuster" is clearly a template where an early encounter is impossible. Are such templates even needed in a 200-player tournament?

P.S.

I don't understand the meaning of the word "camper" template, but the idea of a blockbuster is obvious and simple – grab two treasures on the off-road (snow or sand) before your opponent. That is, whoever has wings first has an 80% chance of winning.
Is that what you want?

I'll play if they replace the Spider-Man blockbusters with something decent, at least like 6LM10A.

Well, you can also play with the Spider build if you want; it's HL+U. And 6lm10a is already perfect).

Have you ever played it? :) I mean, the Spider map.

I've played many games on it, including tournament games, even on the Ladder. The gameplay is quite engaging and doesn't lose out to LM10, and I think it even surpasses MM6 (although opinions differ). In any case, it's a typical example of the XL+U template; I wouldn't even compare it to a blockbuster map.

For fans of XL+U templates, the list includes 8mm6 and 8xm12 – which, in my opinion, is quite sufficient. Including rich templates like Jebus in the list for a 200% game doesn't make much sense because the starting money for them doesn't have much significance and won't affect the gameplay style.

No, I haven't played it. :) But for some reason, it's not that common, so I didn't even feel like trying it.
