Even though there are other 1 spawn maps it's not as much of an issue as on Reaper. Probably this is because on maps like Glitch and SFI there is less surface area to cover both your base and your wit space. On Reaper though the backdoor is on the opposite side of the map from your wit space and the walk from your spawn to your backdoor is relatively far. You also receive comparatively less info from a single runner's vision than on a more condensed map like SFI. To top it off, you don't even start with a medic!

As much as the lack of both a Medic and vision get me murdered in this map, I have to say I like it. I'm a little tired of maps like Glitch and and Peekaboo, where the maps are designed with very limited approach options and most games play out in predictable ways.
