Yeah, I would have liked to do the main event but I heard it was going to be hard to make it in with generics. I didn't know my schedule until July, and I didn't get hit with pangs of nostalgia until around then either.

I don't know if I would put it on MM, but there has been a gradual shift. That said, there is plenty of variation and there were absolutely some range-friendly maps in the pool.
I think he started a trend, and it was seen even three or four years ago. When you compare his tenure and beyond to the likes of Marr Highway or Ember Canyon, there's a difference. The release of Ticalla Jungle helped a lot too.
