At the end of each round, [[Skeleton]]s will rise from around the map (with the "skeleton king" spawning inside the cathedral), and attack anyone still alive before the match ends or round restarts.

* The name Los Muertos is in reference to the Aztec/Mexican holiday [[Wikipedia:Day of the Dead|''Día de los Muertos'']] (Spanish for "Day of the Dead"), playing off the fact that the map has the "Land of the Dead" (''Chicunamictlán'') for its underworld, and the Skeletons that spawn around the map.

Los Muertos publicity blurb

Los Muertos is a community-made King of the Hill map, set in a Latin American (or Badlands) town late at night broadly decorated as if for Día de los Muertos (Spanish for "Day of the Dead"). The control point is at the center of the town plaza in front of the large cathedral. Periodically, the Witching Hour arrives, spawning magic spells and opening a Path of Marigolds bridge to an altar that transports the player to the Land of the Dead. At the end of each round, Skeletons rise from around the map (with the "skeleton king" spawning inside the cathedral) and attack anyone still alive before the match ends or round restarts.

Los Muertos was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
