For Icebox , Riot come out to be changing Mid , B Site , and the Attacker Spawn in various ways while leave A Site to how it is now .

Mid

The chief focus of the IceboxMid changeshas to do with Tube , which has proven to be a very strong assailant push full point . As such , a windowpane has been added deeply into Tube that gives defenders a strong sightline into Mid itself , while exit those press Tube exposed to much of Defender Spawn . Some box were also placed in Tube to give withstander some cover .

B Site

B Sitehas had change principally to both B Main and the area around Snowpile . type B Main ’s green box that once hover above has been remove , exposing a massive blindspot that defenders could utilize to catch players out . As for Snowpile , the itinerary between Snowpile itself and B Site has been blocked off on one site , removing one of the two long sightlines that left those moving through the expanse wholly exposed .

Attacker Spawn

The change withAttacker Spawnare mostly to reply to the Mid changes , but also have noticeable gameplay changes . A box has been bestow to the unexpended side of the entry to Mid , cutting off a major sightline that could be used by either side for a direct shot into Attacker Spawn .
