I'm feeling good about this layout.
Phi about map layout

Sunshine is a community contributed map made by Phi. It is competitive focused, and was designed with 6v6 in mind. It features the standard 5CP layout with a mid, two seconds, and two lasts, with forward spawns for each point beyond mid owned. It is currently played in ESEA, ETF2L, and UGC. Contrary to what some believe, Sunshine is not directly inspired by any other 5CP, but does place the second point on a spire-like structure with two small chokes going to mid. Badlands and Process do this as well.

Sunshine was made an official map in the Meet Your Match Update, and a Halloween version of the map was released with the Scream Fortress 2015 update, under the name Sinshine.
