Builder's SpeculationI worked a lot on the functional details of the structures. You have to watch your back in this one because there is always a lot of action around every corner. Everything in the playground is multi-use and there are many alternate routes to take once you get used to the layout. Each structure is totally unique with their own perks & quirks, giving this map a very competitive twist.
This is a good map for 2v2 - 4v4. I recommend a full party with FFA Slayer for the most carnage possible. (I've had some wicked matches!)

TIPS FOR GAMEPLAY:
-The main bigtoy is well secured; there are only a few ways to get up and into it, making it very easy to defend. There are some special ways to get on the roof too.
-There is a Camo Powerup under the "Toddler's Toy" (the bigtoy with the rust coloured floors) This is the only powerup on the map, so make sure you can get it.
-It is difficult to maneuver yourself up into the tire fort, but it is very good for sniping and is easy to evacuate. (There are 2 special ways to get up as well)
-The Sandbox has well-placed hills for keeping out of view. Use the buckets as extra cover when dodging shots.
-Everything you can see is accessible in some way. Try to find the "secret paths" to these locations.
-You can duck or slide under the picnic table to use it as fortification, jump on top for a further view, or use it as a stepping stone when jumping from structure to structure.
-If you notice a sniper on the main bigtoy, run around under structures to hide from them. Tall features like the tire fort and circular fort both provide clear view of the main roof to eliminate the threat.
-There are 9 official "secret" ways to get onto the main bigtoy's roof. (More if you can exploit some features that I have overlooked)
-Remember to use your spartan abilities! Ground Pound is especially effective in this map because there are many alleyways/lanes under tall structures, etc.
-You may run along the edge of the outer fence, but don't cross it.
-There are weapons in every structure; try to memorize their placement.
