I stopped liking Joust ever since they changed it, I loved the old Joust map, the new one is just not fun.

It's the same with any mode. Some gods are just better in some modes than others (generally speaking).

I feel like conq is the only balanced map..

Well they balance the game around that mode, so I'd expect it to be what most gods and items were balanced for.

i'm in the same camp with black here, the current map just feels horrible, the old one was so damn fun but the new one is so so so sooo bad, i'm sure some people like it but honestly in my opinion it's crap and unfun to play on

Joust is still my favorite mode, and I rather like that some of the gods that aren't good in Conquest are actually some of the best in Joust. And I loved the old Joust map too, but this one is far superior for a lot of reasons (though I still kinda wish they'd kept the old one for Duel maybe...)

As to the balance, yeah, there are some gods that if they were that good in Conquest, they'd get nerfed, but they can't balance the game for every game mode, so at least the bans for Ranked Joust can cover most of the really powerful ones.

I made up a "tier list" for Ranked Joust based on win rate, and it's not perfect for numerous reasons, but I've found it helpful for working out picks and bans. If you care to check it out. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=824909392

As for Normals, I have tons of Normal Joust matches and it seems to me that there are still plenty of people who don't know the strong gods and will play anything on Joust, but I play on NA so SEA's low player base causes issues with that I'm sure... In which case it's the region adding to the issue.

Harder to Titan turtle when fire minions are involved. There's no buffer to the titan.

Also hard to Titan turtle when you go with Anubis or Thoth... Titan turtling is still at least an improvement over Phoenix turtling... Though it is true that it didn't completely fix the turtling issue. Maybe they'll push the spawn further away from the Titan like Clash or widen the access area to the Titan at some point more like Assault's acces to the Titan, which should help.
