Something is stirring deep beneath the placid waters of Forge Island. The water begins to twist and lash all around and a maelstrom appears, and out of it rises the dreaded Arknado, a fearsome whirlwind of water and… boats? I think it looks more like a cable car...
Well whatever an Arknado is otherwise, one thing is for certain: It is one hell of a map. Crafted by The Fated Fire and otherwise known as The Ark, this map plays an extremely fun and balanced match with anywhere from 4 to 8 players. The map supports Team Slayer, 1-site Extraction, and even Oddball while demanding heavy team coordination. While it's plenty of fun to play whatever your skill level, this is a map that will reward smart and cooperative teams.
Arknado (I still can't say that without chuckling) also has a strong theme that permeates the map, with it's docked boat, satellite tower, and general visual consistency. This is a map that feels less like an arena than a real place that just so happens to be perfectly set up for a good firefight. All in all, this is a map you will want to play.
Well water you waiting for? Grab some friends and give it a shot!
