Not really a discussion
(was too long for comments)
Keep in mind that I haven't actually played a round of this map and only walked around it for a few minutes. If there are servers hosting this map please inform me. I'd love to play it. I'll try to give constructive feedback now.


Middle
The CTs have ver little cotrol of it. They have the bar area, sure, but it doesn't really help in my opinion. With a bit of coordination two people can peek it from decon and T stairs (using radar callouts). There is a way to look at the both entrances from bar with two people in cover from other entrances, but, obviously, that would take two people. It seems kinda problematic to play either site with just one person and you can't easily rotate from bar to any other place. That encourages the CTs to play from sites. You can watch the bar middle entrance nicely from A site or A ramp. So Ts should theoretically always get the middle area easily (if CTs don't stac, of course). That gives them acces to 3 more ways to go. CT spawn, A ramp and back stairs to which they could've gone with a smoke to the bar.

Site A
I feel like this site is lacking entrances. There is the main T route and then the middle+CT. You can watch both from multiple spots so that makes the site suitable for rushing. But what doesn't is the fact, that you can watch both middle bar entrance and alley from quite long ranges. So a good awper or a good rifler can delay or stop the rush. Also if you wait fro your team to rotate in back of A, you should be able to retake site.

Site B
The timing seems to be set so the CTs can fight for the fountain area but it doesn't seem to give them that many advantages. One person can't really go and try to claim it, so there should be two going in there. But one person should also look bridge in case they push. So they will probably tend to play from site. They've got two choke points and time to set up. The lack of cover may make the CTs play from places nearing spawn, making the retake strat even more likely.

In conclusion I feel like the map isn't that balanced but of course I haven't played it and my opinion doesn't mean as much. Again, if there are servers hosting this map, I'd love to try it. Either way it is visible that a lot of work and heart has been put into this map and I very much respect the creators. I hope this essay of a comment helped in any way.
