I'd say Bast but CWAG commed us to vitctory on there. I've never ever ever ever ever ever seen a marine team come even remotely close to victory on Mineshaft. They did once, but their stupid comm crashed the server with a turret farm of about a billion turrets.
I think I have won at the min of 9 times on LM on mineshaft  ^^

I've actually been in more games where the marines won more often on mineshaft than some of the other maps on the list.

All the marines have to do is take Tram hive early on if its empty, and turret their way to double-node, or take double-node and turret their way to Tram hive.

If they can hold those two spots without many structural losses/setbacks, they can tech to HA and begin working on taking other areas.

I hate mineshaft as an alien because there are many cramped coridors that can screw you up if you're a fleeing Onos, and there aren't really any good wall/ceiling places to lie in wait to drop on an unsuspecting marine's head.

Lies! If so, how come they lose ninety percent of their games there on public servers?

Yea, I've never won a game on ns_bast and I'm serious about this. Never ever won as a marine on ns_bast. And ns_mineshaft is easilly winable by Marines.. They just don't have to be stupid. I've won a decent amount of time on ns_mineshaft, and I really like ns_mineshaft if that makes me wierd.

I've seen marines win Bast. Infact, it was quite a nice win too. We had two hives sealed down before I even realized we had one. Swift destruction of the third hive came soon after that.
Mmm... Destructiony goodness.
