Interesting, but I can tell you, all that stuff will be just annoying: like the hole around the ball spawn point, or the obstacles on the pitch.
The pitch is very small, you will fall down all the time, will get very annoying.
Next time try to make easier stuff, that's what Deathball needs.
The lines are extremely cheap, check db-cube or something for how to make lines. And your penatly zone is way too small.
The jumppads are damn abusive! Can be used for "broomstick" trick.
Do you not see why there is a long thread flaming you for your opinions on custom maps?
Lets break down your objections from the bottom.
Jumppads: It is a custom map, looking at the screenshots it looks to have been designed for fun, not serious play. Jumppads make it fun, and they are nowhere near the goal anyway.
Lines: Good point, badly made. Yes there is a much better way to do lines. The way to point it out is not "The lines are extremely cheap" but something like "Try to make cleaner looking lines by adding a brush as in cube. If you don't know how then feel free to ask."
Penalty zone: Again a good point, but you didn't back it up with anything. You could have said "I don't like p-boxes that small" or "With a p-box that small, I won't be able to p-box camp". Or something which actually is a good reason "The offence will be able to get very close to the goal, making the map unbalanced in the offence's favour."
Your first paragraph is fine, except the last sentence. Make it easier. I say that is bs. Feel free to experiment, you might hit on something good. (e.g. tribun, obstacles in pitch!)
must fix that.
