What to expect

Terrain across the region leans wooded, with wooded/hilly common as well, which shapes what you should carry. Wooded layouts reward control discs and accuracy; open ones make wind the deciding factor. The disc selector matches speeds to your arm, and the wind calculator shows how conditions change a disc's flight.
