Temple Tussle (Ranked)

|colspan=2 | <span style="font-size:85%"> ''Open terrain analysis: For each open terrain, count the number of adjacent open terrains.

| STYLE="vertical-align: center; text-align:justify;" align="left" colspan=4| Temple Tussle (TT) is a PVP map containing <span style="color: orange">'''224'''</span> terrains with <span style="color: orange">'''4'''</span> victory terrains. There are no impassable terrains and <span style="color: orange">'''4'''</span> difficult terrains. A central open <span style="color: orange">'''4x4'''</span> contest zone is surrounded on four sides by mini-mazes, creating a 'King of the Hill' (KotH) scenario. All figures adopt the 'offensive force attacking downwards and opponent defending upwards' orientation. <br /><br /> As in usual KotH-like arenas, offensive control is established by winning areas leading into and out of the victory zone. As Figure 1 shows, there are <span style="color: orange">'''8'''</span> paths connected to the victory squares (highlighted in purple). Two paths involve difficult terrains, suited for ranged units. Whichever party successfully controls these pathways controls the game. However, it is impossible for a single party of <span style="color: orange">'''3'''</span> to simultaneously occupy <span style="color: orange">'''8'''</span> positions. Instead, we split the map into <span style="color: orange">'''3'''</span> distinctive zones and place units within those regions (Fig. 2) to cover as many paths as possible. By doing so, the map is set up for pincers and overlapping kill zones while allowing free flowing movement designed to punish isolated enemy units. Figure 3 show desirable positions that allow a team of melee units (attacking downwards) to exert map control on the opponent. <span style="color: limegreen">'''M1'''</span> block enemies attempting to penetrate from the left lane while <span style="color: limegreen">'''M3'''</span> block enemies from the right. <span style="color: limegreen">'''M2'''</span> supports <span style="color: limegreen">'''M1'''</span> and <span style="color: limegreen">'''M3'''</span> by forming pincers and if need be, choke points to completely shut down enemy maneuvers into the lanes. Figure 4 show the same for a team of ranged units. Unlike melee units, ranged units set up overlapping kill zones to cover units attempting to penetrate the lanes and the victory terrains. Hence, the use of width and a higher strategic line of offense. Note that designations merely show preferable positions. In practice, hybrid teams work best to exert map control by covering each other with flexible positioning.
