I rank the Halo 5 maps: best to worst

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

I’m ONLY ranking 4v4 Arena/Slayer.
No Breakout, BTB, or Warzone because who plays those other than casuals and RP grinders?

How I am basing my rankings off of?

  • map design. - team fairness. - weapon balancing.
    BEST

  • Empire - the Rig - Plaza - Overgrowth - Fathom - Truth - Eden - Rip Tide - Pegasus - Regret - Torque WORST

2

Pretty accurate to me. I personally wouldn’t rank Overgrowth that high, though.

3

I guess I’m a filthy casual cause I play a little of everything. Not really my list but what do I know.

And where is Coliseum?

Forgettable.

5

Empire is a good map in layout, I just suck on it no matter what!

Coli is probably my favourite

6

Ranking Overgrowth as number 4 and Rig as #2? Not even putting Colliseum on the list despite it being one of the few good maps?

Dude, you -Yoinking!- wot m8?

7

The fact that you have overgrowth and rig in top 5 makes you sound like a casual.

8

Unpopular opinion… I like torque

9

In my opinion:

  • Coliseum - Truth - Eden - Empire - Fathom - Plaza - The Rig - Regret - Torque - Riptide - Overgrowth - Pegasus/Orion – I’m aware Orion is not in matchmaking anymore; just dispelling any doubt that these are the two worst maps to touch the game.However, I will say that my list is rather relative to an overall opinion of the map as opposed to one gametype like slayer. For instance I would put Overgrowth Strongholds over Riptide Strongholds but Slayer Overgrowth is just so… ugh that overall I rank Riptide higher. That being said, I personally think both of these maps are terrible for pretty much every gametype. Including FFA. I can use this same logic with a few of these maps.

Side note about Torque, and I think I’ve said this before… I don’t think the map is that bad. I just think it’s too big. If it didn’t take forever to get across the map I think it would be better lol.

This is definitely a list I agree with.

  • Empire - Truth - The Rig - Fathom - Plaza - Riptide - Eden - Torque - Coliseum - Overgrowth - Regret - Pegasus
    This is my opinion overall, taking account for the different gametypes playable through Team Arena and Team Slayer. Really don’t like Regret or Pegasus, and unlike popular opinion I quite like Torque (although more for FFA) but not so much Coliseum.

I don’t get why Empire seems to be a universal #1 here. That map is WAY too small for anything but doubles/1v1s

15

In what way did you feel the need to bash “casual” players? It was a good topic but you came off as an arrogant -Yoink-. “I hope you’re champion in every playlist otherwise your just a casual.”

16

BTB is not casual. It’s nothing but sweaties in there, I know because I’m one of them.

I changed it up for my list. I’m lazy and didn’t want to write it all down.

Almost every Halo 2, 3, Reach map would be better in a “all 4v4 maps” ranking. Some Halo 5 maps are decent but still trash compared to every other Halo map.

19

Apparently I am the only one who likes Regret more than Truth.

Anyway:

  1. Colosseum
  2. The Rig
  3. Plaza
  4. Empire
  5. Regret
  6. Eden
  7. Truth
  8. Fathom
  9. Overgrowth
  10. Riptide
  11. Pegasus

I do not think I played enough of Torque to justify a position for it.

And that being said, the only map I say I hate is Pegasus.

Uhh, The Rig is hands down one of the best maps in the game…
