Flowing Springs is an official map for the Knockout event.
Layout[]
The map consists of only two lanes due to the entire middle being closed off with water, with there being small clusters of bushes in between some of the water that lets Brawlers cross. Each lane has a thin line of walls with a cluster of bushes above them. There are walls on the sides further forward which make a flipped C shape with bushes inside of the curve. There is also a small amount of walls next to the C. There is a sideways L of walls at the end of each lane. The map is diagonally symmetrical.
Tips[]
- Eve is incredibly useful on this map due to her trait which allows her to walk over water. This, along with the open space, makes Eve capable of pressuring Brawlers, and making quick escapes from tank Brawlers. The walls on the bottom left side also make a suitable placement for her Super, preventing enemies from destroying the nest egg.
- Brock is very useful in this map. He has a long range and his Super can destroy walls and bushes, so enemies can no longer hide. His normal attack also has piercing damage that allows him to hit two enemies that are close to each other at the same time. His Gadgets are also very useful, you can use Rocket Laces if you have low health and Rocket Fuel if you are really into the offense. Brock has fairly low health, so stay behind your teammates if you have low health.
- Piper can also be useful for her long-ranged sniper and ability to break walls and obstacles with her Super, clearing the area for Piper and her teammates.
- Leon can be a useful pick, due to his long range which can poke at enemies and charge his powerful super. His high damage at short-range also allows him to ambush enemies that come near him while he's in a bush, or hiding with his super.
- Because of the nature of the map, where the walls push teams closer to the river in the middle, mid-ranged brawlers and even controllers can work is great picks to counter snipers.
