Taking place in a fiery hellscape, this map contains a symmetrical 3-lane layout all the way to the center points of the map where clashes tend to occur. A statue above the center of the map depicts [[Ban Hammer]], the ruler of Banland itself.


==Gameplay features==
Banland is widely regarded as one of the fairest maps in the game due to any class being able to traverse and maneuver it with ease. Close to the lava near spawn, the outer lane holds platforms that can be jumped on for escape. These can also be used for flanking, which offers a risky, unseen route; however, these platforms lack cover and will leave you exposed to ranged attacks.
The entire map is surrounded by lava which serves as a stage boundary, [[Map Elements#Killbricks|instantly killing]] players who step off the main terrain and fall into it.

Banland is a map in PHIGHTING!.

Overview

Banland is a fairly large and open hybrid map set on a fiery island in the middle of a lake of lava. Each team spawns in a small building on the same side of the map on opposite corners, with two exit doors which lead to ramps into the main area. Various ramps and pathways lead to a central high ground which provides clear lines of sight to the areas below. The central area contains the Conquer zone and consists of a large crystal formation in the middle as well as two arch structures on opposite sides, providing room for cover or as a vantage point. Besides the elevation of the terrain itself, the map is fairly open, offering only small walls and structures as cover.

Gameplay features

The entire map is surrounded by lava which serves as a stage boundary, instantly killing players who step off the main terrain and fall into it.

Setting

Banland takes place on a desolate, hellish island prison surrounded by a vast lake of lava. Cages of various sizes can be seen hanging from the sky or atop of large structures. A towering wall lines the background, adorned with aqueducts of flowing lava and purple banners. Gory non-graphic elements are placed around the map: ribcages serving as pathways and ramps, as well as large, erratic eyeballs on walls and pillars. In the center stands a towering statue of Ban Hammer, the warden of Banland itself, dominating the landscape with its imposing presence.
