Pros: This map has some amazing textures, details and brush work. You've done amazing job.
Cons: There's a whole lot of water.
Improvements: There's a whole lot of water on this map. The middle point is probably the best use of the water - but outside of the middle point, not so much. Getting into the water should be nearly impossible outside of the middle point.
The middle point really feels very scout heavy. This may be due to the water being the primary option of getting to the middle point. An extra walkway or grating so that players can for the most part, walk to the middle point, is ideal.
Notes: Love the sounds in the map. You did an excellent job creating your environment. I'll give the map a try on my server and see what players think. Good work.

Pros: Just looks amazing. A map in which I would think Valve would have been proud to make. Of course, we all know that. This map makes players play classes they may have not played on previous maps.
Cons: Well, I've got a few complaints, but it doesn't take away from the beauty of the map. First off, I personally think there are some areas in which are really unnecessary to clip off. A good example of this is the area below the set of stairs closest to both spawn areas in the first CP room. Another area is that little area at the top of the other set of stairs in the room. Since we are still near the spawn areas, I'd like to say that I think the first CP room is just too compact. Actually, plenty of the areas in this map are too compact, but work well. Having said that, this map is an engineer's wet dream. To me, there are a lot of effective sentry spots on the map, as long as they stay away from the middle. The middle is essentially sniper territory. Safest clas to play in this map if you want to rack up a few kills is demoman, as there are a lot of hidden places they can hide stickies. Although this is clever, I really don't find the need for the "Swift Water" area. It has obviously got to be a joke spot. This is either for losing teams to kill themselves to prevent the other team getting an easy point on them or simply a noob trap so veterans of the map can laugh at their existence. And 12 seconds waiting for doing something stupid is never fun for them. As for the suicide attempt after losing, well, I don't understand how they got there once the enemy capped the last point when they could of been helping defend :P
Improvements: Remove a few clipping areas, and I would consider clipping the "Swift Water".
Notes: It truly is an awesome map, and if I had a server, I'd be glad to put it on there on rotation or even as a 24/7. This is an A map.
