Ares - Brawl in a greek colosseum with a shapeshifting mid point

An idea I've had in my head for a while has been the idea of a map with a strip of mid that entirely flips around and changes as the round progresses, but for a long time I really didn't know what would be a good way to justify it; after all, that's usually where the objective is, and you generally don't want to eject players from the objective.

Aulli updated Ares with a new update entry:

Shrunk the spawn courtyards significantly, and made rotating between the left and middle entrances easier.
Reduced respawn times, increased time the cap zone is open, and reduced the time between mid transitions as well.

Aulli updated Ares with a new update entry:

Beginning of an artpass, With some gameplay tweaks.

Map is mostly artpassed, but with the deadline coming up I figure I should test some gameplay changes.

Added the third wing of the underworld.
Marked potion spawns.
Added braziers around, with player and arrow ignites.
Many tiny little geometry tweaks for detailing.

Changed the end-of-round minigame to have a much shorter setup and timer, but the hunters have haste and infinite double jumps.
