The contest emphasizes more on gameplay than terrain. The terrain itself is lacking, as well as decorations outside of pumpkin areas.
----------
Gameplay, as in competitive gameplay where high skilled level players could play the map and his/her opponent doesn't have an advantage over him/her, and vice versa. Must be balanced in that aspect, like a blizzard map. But you can make yours more appealing, different scenario, however you would like it to be. You can make your point of interest for your map terrain, but that doesn't make up for the map lacking in other forms, if it is. The main focus is overall balance, keep that in mind when making your map. Contact me if you have further questions! You can contact Ken-E as well.
