This is my favorite pick from the contest map pool. Really love the way you used the model skin feature to place those ice spiders on the map - I will adopt this technique for sure and use it in the future. The fiery pits also give a great atmosphere, although they can be a little confusing from a gameplay perspective.

Second this, lovely execution and fire mixed with ice makes for a refreshing scenery!

1. Rather few trees for non-night elf factions in the starting points.
2. Ranged (and siege) units can be used to attack the workers at the lower land expansions from high up and the Goblin Merchant shop guards as well.

Some judges complained the expansions are too far: Hive Cup 2023: Melee Mapping Contest #9 - Results I'd say they are too close to each other however, considering the lower ones are exposed, the highland ones are to compensate for that in both ease of acquiring and as strategic points to protect the lower ones, the last also having more gold.
Overall, sweet terrain and creative use of tiles.

Approved.
