They… they really didn’t rotate any of the maps? Why?

We're in the middle of VCT right now - there'll be a map rotation after Masters 2 in June!

Viper changes are overkill and will make icebox and Breeze even more torture now. Couldn't care less about cypher but the cam change is a bit weird.

What im the the most disappointed about is the fact that there was no duelist changes because right now we have 1 op, 1 playable and the rest are trash. Im getting tired of raze and jett only.

Also no map pool rotation is weird af with how people are begging for Breeze and icebox to be rotated out

I know this probably isn't what you want to hear, but just wanted to confirm that we are working on Duelist changes right now. We'll be ready to talk more details soon (we're working on a dev diary video rn), and you can expect to see some changes shipped after Masters 2.

So, I talked about this a bit 4 months ago when we made this change, so you can find context in the link below. But, I want to say that our intent has always been to evaluate how this does, and we see a lot of the feedback yall are giving around how it's felt and we're talking about it internally. We hear you on the pain of the current system.
