Messy
Messy Base (messy) is an incredibly old school duel map that even pre-dates Aerowalk and Blood Run. It was created by Adriano 'Escher' Lorenzini in 1997. Some other maps that Escher created, that you have no doubt heard of, are FFA classics Ultra Violence (ultrav) and De Bello Quakero (debello).
Messy Base was a popular duel map in the late 90's in Australia in particular players of the clan Sons of Quad (SoQ) were known to frequent this map.
The texture work and architectural design are surprisingly original (and remain so today), especially for using the base texture set. Layout spans across two main atriums and some smaller connecting tunnels. Great diversity in terrain across the play field, as well as decent vertical movement ensures an excellent match time and time again.
