Cool theme idea and interesting detailing, but I'd stop short of calling this one beautiful as I have others. It's just too gray. Everything is gray. It's not quite cookie-cutter levels of boring, but almost.
Not a fan of the point. It's really exposed, easy to spam, and there isn't much in the way of holding areas around it. I don't really enjoy fighting in or watching all the negative space in the central building, either. Attackers can come from so many places it feels like. And I feel--even when playing on a full server--that the map is simply empty. I rarely encounter more than 2-4 players at once, on either team. Why? I don't know.

This area is a cool vista but I think it separate players too much. I'd cut it out entirely. Show the vista with a window, or move these outer railings inward (removing the inside paths to make room).

I despise dead ends.
It's weird, because I find I don't have much to say here. I just don't have fun on Cloudtop. Like Mom, I think it's almost there, and just needs some work. I'd like to see this become a really fun and beloved map. It certainly has a unique landmark (the clouds) to make it memorable.
- frustrating point/building area
- too many routes past mid
