Is Altar Unbalanced for CTF?

The BTB remake of Sandtrap (Altar) seems to be a bit unbalanced for the CTF gametype to me. While it’s fine for Slayer, since respawn points don’t really depend on team, CTF is a bit one sided in the Red Team’s favor. Red base has the high ground, more cover, and the banshee closer to it. Once the Red Team has the banshee and has pushed to the halfway point of the map it’s all over for the Blue Team because they have to fight uphill and without cover just to exit their base. With all this in mind, I cannot think of a single time I have won BTB on Altar as the Blue Team unless I have a full fireteam.

I know 343 can see map/gametype stats so they know if a map is really balanced or not, but I’m curious to see how other players feel about CTF on this map and if anyone has had a similar experience.

It’s definitely not balanced. Red team has control of banshee spawn and have a height advantage with starting spawns.
