Icebox got some attention.

B site Valor Feed

B Green

Doorway from Attacker spawn building near Green lane moved to the first cubby.

This is to give attackers a new way to approach B Green instead of having to enter from two similar positions.

Icebox update b valorfeed

B Site

Yellow container adjusted and new stack of crates added.

As players have settled into Icebox we’ve noticed a lot of rounds revolve around anchoring down behind yellow during post plant situations. This change should allow Yellow to retain some power while adding more value to holding space on the actual site.

Icebox b lower container

B Site

Lower container removed and geometry adjusted into a cubby facing Green. Doorway on the upper container widened and it’s position adjusted.

This should allow players to better isolate fights around the site and make utility usable more meaningful.

Icebox b outer wall

B Site

Outer wall on B site and crane structure brought in toward the site.

Narrowing the site allows for more controllers to comfortably use their utility without having to worry about gaps.

Icebox b building closed

B Site

Building in Back B closed off. We want to encourage attackers to push further and hold more space.

Closing off this building should allow players to better anchor themselves in Snowman. It should also better highlight using B Fence to cut off rotations.

B plant zone

B Site

Plant zone on B site adjusted.

This change is to encourage more spike plant diversity while retaining some safer defaults to work with. You can now also plant on the bridge from kitchen to upper container as well.

Back wall in Kitchen adjusted.

This change should help moving through this space feel more comfortable and allow players to more easily clear this space.

Boiler ramp geo simplified and slightly narrowed.

Smokes will now fully cover Boiler and players should find head peaks from ramp more predictable.

A Site

Cover on back A site adjusted.

This change should give Defenders a little extra space to anchor on.

Icebox a site pipes

A Site

Head peek on attacker side pipes removed.

Where Attackers can peak from on A Site can feel overwhelming. This change should allow Defenders to better isolate where threats can come from.
