Aesthetics: Your map looks absolutely beautiful. The curves are amazing and smooth and some of the features are unique and very innovative. One part that is very eye-catching is the box geomerged into the crane. You have done one of the best jobs using teleporter lights to make a word or design. The box really looks like a clock and the positioning of the lights is near perfect. Also, your entire map seems to be interlocked and geomerged where neccessary. All of this has been done cleanly and it makes your map look much better. Another thing I like is how you used walls to make a sort of "river" that is set in to the surrounding map geometrey. These passageways look smooth and well made. They make for an intriguing and new design. The multiple height levels on the map make it look great. All the ramps look great and flow with the map. Also, you created a very interesting structure with the box, walls, and powerup. It looks nice and adds to the aesthetics of the map. All in all, this is one of the most origional and clean maps I have seen. Great job on that.
Gameplay: Judging on what I can see and what has been written, your map flows very well. There are multiple routes everywhere which include the high ground on the double boxes and the low ground in the "river". The entire map has an interesting layout and utilizes high versus low ground incredibly well. The entire map seems to curve and wind around itself which gives you multiple routes to travel. Your map seems like it would play very well on the slayer or team slayer sttings. There are no unfair advantages to either team and there are no clear bases or camping spots. The only possible flaw could be the openness of the section with the fence wall and shield door combo. It might play well for all I know but to me it seems a bit open. Mostly all of the map looks like it works nicely. The gameplay for this map seems to be above standard.
Overall: You made a very nice map. It has pleasing aesthetics with smooth surfaces and curves and unique structures. The gameplay seems to flow well as well. The map looks excellent overall. very nice job guys.

That my friends, is a true example of how you should post a review without seeing a map. Hell, that's how you should post a review even if you have seen the map!
Thanks a bunch for your kind words of wisdom, sir. :)
