The Battleground: Schloss MapThe Schloss map, relatively new to the TP 4on4 routines, proved to be a thrilling battleground for the clans.

Players had to quickly familiarize themselves with the terrain, leading to dynamic and unpredictable matches. The reason to create this event was to level up the budding TP routines on Schloss, which we hope we succeeded in.
