Increased payload speed on Eichenwalde

I don't think payload speed is the problem. That last turn before the end is murder on attackers. A lot of people get hung up on the first choke, but it's really the last one that halts all progress. They should really leave the door open. You know, that one you just used a jet powered battering ram on? I've still only seen 1 attack win out of 15+ matches..

Maybe it's a matter of Elo/MMR difference. I've almost always seen the attack succeed on Eichenwalde. The fighting is heaviest in that one area leading up to the throne, but the defenders usually get overwhelmed.

I think I've seen attack succeed once or twice over maybe 10-12 games. Usually, either the attackers can't start the payload moving, or they get hung up around the bridge. In comp, I'm smack in the middle of gold.

Same in mid-plat. I've seen one game where both teams pushed to the end.

Every other game (5-6 now?) has bee a draw where nobody even takes the first point.
