Results
Botana Facilities was the grand winner, and received first place. Although the judges believe that the map's design was "bland and boring", they found the unique content and the map's layout to be greatly executed. Renaxon's Golden Sportshot, Vilespring's Golden Sportshot, and Phyyrin's Golden Zubeknakov were distributed between the team members.
Freighter was the first runner-up, and received second place. The judges described it as a "visually pleasing map" that was flawed in its layout. Froggo's Silver Paddle, Spebby's Silver Fusilaut, and Nolan's Silver Empire were distributed between the team members.
Pirate Cove was the second runner-up, and received third place. The judges found the concept to be interesting, but the execution to be mediocre. Justin_'s Bronze Hawkhound, Mikeyy's Bronze Hell's Fury, and Maikee Maous' Bronze Hawkhound were distributed between the team members.
Other entries did not receive placements, and as such did not receive any sort of reward from the prize pool. However, the host, AnimaticFreak, received the Animatic's Golden Zubeknakov skin.
