Should Blizzard lock the new map in competitive for a week?
When Orisa was originally released she was banned in competitive for a week to allow for players to learn her in QP and not harm competitive games. Should Blizzard also do the same thing for the new map and leave it out of the rotation for a week to allow players to learn it outside of competitive first?

Hey folks, I think Horizon Lunar Colony will not be in the competitive rotation for the first week.
Cheers.
edit: Apologies everyone but I was mistaken about Horizon Lunar Colony being disabled in Competitive Play during this week. We are considering this for future map releases but server tech for it isn't available right now. New heroes are disabled for the first week, and that was the source of my confusion.
So to be clear, Horizon Lunar Colony will be in the Competitive Play map rotation this week.
