ctf_2fort_ruined_b2rx, by @Endriou
Gamemode: Capture the Flag
2Fort Ruined is a remade-from-scratch version of 2Fort, fitting a custom map archetype called the "Mega 2Fort." Mega 2Fort have existed since the beginning of custom mapping, with maps from Pwndora's Box, 2Fort2Furious, and similar old groups coming to mind. Most Mega 2Forts have large, customized bridges replacing the generic 2fort bridge, as well as various other changes that make each Mega 2Fort their own map in one way or another.

> This is easily one of my favourite 2Fort Variants. The colours, the theme, the everything really. It reminds me of a long-gone era of custom mapping, still imbued with the amazingness of the modern mapping techniques! I really wish this were somewhere other than just the browser, but I have no power of that sadly.

> When I loaded up this map for the first time, I did not expect to fall in love with it. I thought it was quite interesting beforehand, as I don't think *anybody* has ever made a VRChat map port before but... man. The soft, heartwarming music on this map made me stay on it for a good 8 minutes or so as I enjoyed its pleasant background song. It really made me sad that I had to get off of the map for some other work I was doing, because this map will now always be special to me. It made me think of a lot of things despite its admittedly strange appearance

cp_kalinka_rc6a, by @Jusa.
Gamemode: Symmetrical Control Points (5CP)
Kalinka is a competitive-oriented 5CP map that began development in 2016. It received some testing in teamfortress.tv's New Map Cup, which took place in 2017. Sadly it has since fallen out of favour in the competitive scene, like many unique maps before it.
