Thank you for your submission. I have a few concerns regarding this map that I need to address.

In terms of aesthetics, you’re on the right track, but there are still some areas for improvement. The map currently has little to no elevation, which makes it look quite flat and artificial. To improve it, try adding even more natural terrain variations to make the map feel more dynamic and realistic. Right now there are only two natural terrain variations and the rest is just a flat surface with a few objects to fill in the space.

In terms of gameplay, there are also some issues to consider. The map feels somewhat open compared to the available cover, particularly around the spawn points. Players are completely exposed when they respawn, which could be avoided by adding natural cover rather than relying on a resistance effect when you respawn. Additionally, the void gaps near the middle hill are concerning. Since the map is relatively enclosed, the void gaps seem unnecessary and could be filled with some blocks and small decorations to improve the overall gameplay. I also suggest increasing the arrow count, 8 seems way too low for a map that's supposed to be 5v5. 12 arrows could be the sweet spot, but may need to test, additionally, consider reducing the arrow kill reward from 5 to 4.
