Haddonfield is NOT the worst map.

People overhype way too much about how terrible Haddonfield is. Yes it’s a bad map but it’s still very winnable. Ever since the Balanced Landing change it’s hasn’t NEARLY as bad.

Maps like Ormond, Yamaoka, THE GAME, all Coldwind maps (specifically Fractured Cowshed and Thompson House can be unwinnable in certain set ups and you have to take the loss.

Why is Haddonfield so bad to everyone. Besides the dreaded “Great Wall of Haddonfield” there really isn’t anything so unwinnable.

    it is when they have an offering and can prepare for it.


    and even without that its absurldy strong.

    the house loops are insane and the fences dont make it any better.

    if you have someone who can decently run a killer around on Haddonfield, good luck. you will need it.

    When a map can have fences and bushes that resemble the Great Wall of China, it’s probably an awful map

    Ormond, Springfield and Autohaven: allow us to introduce ourselves.

    TBH, I don't know why people complain that much about Haddonfield. I hate Ormond, or even yamaoka ninja grass, or Blood Lodge (pallet city), or Ironworks' window. Haddonfield is ok, BL can be OP sometimes, but I don't struggle at all on that map, it's one of the bunch for me.

    I think Ormond just beats it but Haddonfield is still one of the worst maps.

    I mean... does it matter which one of the list you named is the absolute worst? They’re all terrible killer maps because they’re too big, have too many loops or too many safe pallets.

    I think I speak for all of us when I say,


    fuck corn.

    I'd take Haddonfield over the corn maps, Yamaoka, and Ormond any day.

    I must play on different maps. I have not found an unwinnable map yet. I do struggle on larger maps, Red Forest, and Shelter Woods come to mind. I main Trapper, so movement becomes a concern on those maps. That said, they are still winnable. Facing a 4 man SWF, most maps are tough, larger ones are toss-ups. I have to choose a side of the map and stick to it unless I run a mobile killer.

    Half the maps the OP mentioned are not that bad, even as a colorblind killer. Sure, corn sucks, but the corn is more representative of how the game should be than pallets are. I'd rather see more ability to duck out and break LoS than loop around a stupid pallet and window. If they got rid of 50% of the pallets and windows, but gave us corn-like objects on every map, I'd be all for that. It becomes more about your ability to track as a predator than their ability to time pallet drops.

    I hate the Asylum most as killer. That central building has way too many pallets.

    I don't mind Haddonfield tbh. It's The Game I absolutely despise.

    I think iron works of misery is just as bad (for different reasons tho) or the cow maps lol I hate god loops

    Ormond in my opinion is by far the worst map.

    Haddonfield is a bad map but it's not the worst. Ormond is one of the largest maps and from what i see it has the most loops and jungle gyms. Not only that but god pallets ontop of legion tower. If you have a killer and the survivors are even somewhat decent then prepare to bleed out of your pores and blackout. Only freddy, spirit, billy, and nurse stand somewhat of a chance on this map lmao

    I dread The Game against confident Survivors. Seriously, this map is highly underrated Survivor sided map.

    Ormond is also a very scary one as well. and Yamaoka against Blendettes is a GG.
