Usually, especially when I was running with competitive groups, we’ve called the one side purple, the other stone, then cliff and back. Ring 1, 2 and 3 is universal. Or top mid, bottom mid. Big tree is the main tree, so “Big tree to top mid” etc, although I’m sure we’ve used “main ramp”. Back courtyard or back court, then using weapon spawns – cliff snipe, overshield, purple saw. The other tree was “magic tree” because of the sparkles and the lift inside of it.
So “purple cliff” is where snipers like to hang out at the end of purple forest path down by the cliff, and stone ramp would be the only ramp in stone forest. I like this simplicity also because a lot of people, including myself, have to work hard to remember what I call those obscure callouts (even though I’ll admit hands down that the color is blue in those areas) in the middle of battle, whereas if I can just get 6-9 basic areas down I can combo them. <even though that can get wordy if a lot of people are using callouts, but I’ve notices when the callouts are simpler we can actually GET more people to use callouts.
Callouts seem to overtask a lot of people, I think that’s why they tune them out, which is unfortunate, them being a power weapon and all. :yes:
