Quoted from Eskaybee:

All Borg pins are left sided drain monsters. we should have a poll; what Borg pin drains the most on the left outlane?
BBH
IM
TRON
XMEN
MET
TWD
Dam all those are left outlane drain whores. My vote goes to BBH or MET

Wow! That is a great observation. I had never thought of that before, but it's absolutely true.

Weird!

Quoted from gweempose:

Just checked the audits on my game ...
Left Drains - 125 (32%)
Center Drains - 215 (56%)
Right Drains - 46 (12%)
It goes down the left outlane nearly three times as often as the right outlane.

This would seem to be consistent with the games I've played on the pro. Center drains are by far the most common way to lose your ball.

While the left drains are definitely something that occurs on this pin, I haven't found it to be as bad as the other left drains on Borg games referenced above, particularly BBH and IM, and to a lesser degree, MET. ACDC's left outlane is way worse than TWD imo.

I find it a little strange to have all these discussions about the brutality of the left drains on TWD and how to "fix" it.

How many TWD owners are actually doing this?
