Doog's latest competitive map, Antiquity, is definitely one that deserves your full attention. This two-base, symmetrical, 3-storied map boasts a spectacular design that complements Slayer and Objective variants very well in both FFA and Team-based capacities. Each base, both 2 stories tall, offers great lines of sight without being too overpowering, and the open spaces between the bases are complemented masterfully by narrow tunnels in the lower sections connecting each base with each other and the rest of the map. A map that shines in short to mid-range battles, Antiquity does a great job of promoting movement throughout the map with the 3 power items (Beam Rifle, Missile Pod, and Active Camo) lining the middle of the map.
In addition to some rock solid gameplay, Antiquity also boasts some impressive geometry. Doog's use of the Tin Cups and their respective flags, along with the three large light towers give the map a certain aura that's hard to forget, and the complex, yet intuitive geometry creates some memorable battles. Combine that with an incredible aesthetic, and you've truly got yourself a top-notch map. A well-deserved feature and a well-deserved Premium, Doog. Congrats!
