Map Overview
New Junk City is a clash map set in the industrial wasteland of Junkertown's outer dumping grounds, where rusted machinery, scrap heaps, and industrial structures create a chaotic fighting environment.
Five sequential clash objectives span the industrial site, from a central machine processing area to outer scrapyard objectives.
The map features significant vertical elements with accessible machinery and junk pile platforms throughout.
New Junk City's industrial theme creates a maze-like quality in its side areas, rewarding teams that know the fastest rotation paths between objectives.
Attack Strategy
Rotate to each new clash objective using the shortest path rather than the most obvious one — the industrial side passages are faster than the main road.
Establish your tank on the nearest elevated machinery platform to fire down on the objective area.
On the scrapyard exterior objectives, contest from the elevated junk pile positions.
Cassidy's Deadeye is exceptionally powerful on New Junk City's open exterior objectives — save it for contest moments.
Defense Strategy
Defend clash objectives from the approach corridors and machinery cover, not from the objective centre.
When an objective resolves, immediately rotate to the next position through the industrial passages.
New Junk City's maze-like quality favours teams with strong map knowledge — learn the shortcut routes between each objective location.
Kiriko's teleport is critical for rapid support rotation between objectives.
Key Positions & High Ground
Industrial Machinery Platform: Elevated sections of machinery throughout the map that provide height advantage over nearby objectives.
Scrapyard Junk Pile: Climbable junk heaps near exterior objectives that offer dominant elevated positions.
Processing Centre Walkway: An overhead industrial walkway in the central section with sightlines over multiple objective areas.
Side Industrial Passage: Narrow passages between machinery that provide shortcuts between objective locations.
Chokepoints to Control
Each clash objective creates chokepoints at its approach corridors — the industrial doorways and machinery gaps are the critical hold points.
Central machine processing objectives have tighter chokepoints than the open scrapyard exterior ones.
Hold approach chokepoints and force enemies to engage on your terms.
Ultimate Usage Tips
Cassidy's Deadeye across an open scrapyard objective instantly eliminates multiple defenders.
Earthshatter through any industrial doorway chokepoint catches all defenders.
Moira's Coalescence through the central processing area clears objectives during contested captures.
Kiriko's Kitsune Rush at any clash objective accelerates the fight decisively.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Ignoring the industrial shortcut passages and rotating through the main road, arriving at objectives after the enemy.
Not establishing elevated machinery positions before engaging for objectives — the height advantage is significant.
Teams commit all six players to a fight while the next objective spawns uncontested — always track objective timing and rotate one player early.
