Alizarin
Created by: Zombievillan

Recommended Players: 2-6
Recommended Gametypes: Team Slayer, Team Skyball, Multi Flag

Budding with enthusiasm after the completion of his tournament maps, forger Zombievillan continued his creative attitude and began Alizarin. The map began as Zombie received some fuel for building from a friend. As the map took off Zombies style took hold and molded the idea into the definition of a strong skybox map.

A multi-roomed, fully connected surface was forged, aesthetically red and brown to continue the uniformity. Great usage of small height variation promotes the feeling of different combat scenarios, while never putting players on too uneven a field. A standard weapon layout of Sniper, Shotty, Rocket and OS keeps with competitive play in mind, but suits this map much more then most. With his knowledge of what creates good competitive 1v1 maps, Zombievillan was able to expand this to a slightly larger scale, and created the very respectable Alizarin.

Great map. A little confusing to new people due to the single color scheme but overall a very fun and creative map. I did notice some issues with spawning during team games such as flag but it might have been random chance.

Great work zombie. The windows are fantastic.

You are my hero. Seriously, I thought Cyrus was amazing. The aesthetics, the gameplay, and just the enjoyability. I'm currently building my own map that is sort of based off your style of design.

im sorry, but judging from the pics and the video (haven't played it yet), it seems preety average. The forging looks clean, i like the rooms and i am a big fan of "closed" maps, but im not able to find anything that is special on this map. Its "just" one of the better maps out there, nothing groundbreaking. (+ Sandbox maps without lights usually look boring, your aesthetics carry the map a littlebit, but not enought)

I remeber seeing what I believe was a preview a long time ago. It looked fine back then, but it certainly looks breath-taking now. I love the middle column thats round. The whole map is red, so it's somewhat confusing, but I love how you pulled it off. All the windows provide excellent cover and aesthetics. I'm glad you made this and I'll enjoy it for a while.
Hope I could sometime forge with you. Great map. :)

There are lights on the map. He just took them off for the overview pic without the roof. The other pictures and the video all have red light to them.

I really love this map Zombie... One more for architect?

i personally dont think this should have been featured.
it may definitely be one of the best maps out there at this time but
i dont feel it was one that was oh so feature worthy in comparison with the maps
that have already been featured.
dont judge me.
