I really hate resource control maps.

So, I know that resource/map control is a large part of this game, but I absolutely despise those maps that completely revolve around it. I am talking mostly about center control maps and hybrid/water maps.

These maps include Golden Pit, Golden Swamp, Gold Rush, Atacama, Four Lakes, Islands, Nomad, Steppe, Mediterranean, Baltic, Frozen Lake and maybe others too. Most of the time there are so many of these maps in the pool that I can't ban them all unless I allow some other truly awful map. Some might say that Arena is a also one of these maps, but I disagree. On Arena, you can choose to neglect the center until imperial age. (Not that I usually do) You have enough resources so that you don't have to control the center in late castle age. Also, it is possible for both players to hold control over parts of the center, unlike with most of these maps. In other center control maps, if you don't have map control at that point, the game is over.

Why I don't like these maps? They all have a very one sided meta game with only a few viable civs and strategies. I like to go random civ for variety, but these maps usually make it really hard. The game often gets decided really early on by one fight or a series of fights. This is especially bad on hybrid maps. You lose the water, you lose the game. And water is the most boring part of the game anyways. I basically ban all water/hybrid maps except nomad. That one usually has to stay, even though it's all Persians. Sadly, it's almost a great map, but nothing fun is ever viable.

One reason I dislike these maps is that they don't suit my skill set at all. I have low apm and no micro skills so one all out fight relatively early into the game will always favor the opponent. If you have any idea, how a player like me could be competitive on these kind of high aggression maps, I would like to know. All my advantages go out of the window. Can't outwit the opponent, if there is only one viable strategy. Can't outmacro anyone, when in order to have eco, you need to control that one pile of resources. If both players are forced to do the same thing, it's only natural that the one with more mechanical skill wins.

I've considered dodging. What point is there to play a map you can't win on? My Elo gets carried by Arabia (Or now Runestones) and Arena, so I won't ever fall to a level in which I would start winning on these maps. I could also consider some cheese, but I don't usually enjoy that style of play nor excel in it.

If you think I have the wrong impression of any of these maps, please enlighten me.
