— Invasion Update

Byre is a community-made arena map. Standin is the first and only official arena map containing two control points.

The goal is to eliminate the entire enemy team or capture the two control points when they become available.

Byre won 3rd place in the 2014 TF2Maps.net Major Mapping Contest #11, "Mercs vs. Aliens".

Locations

Overview of Byre
Overview of Byre (With Interiors)
  • Death Ray: The center of the map is separated by a death ray. On both sides of the ray are the two control points.
  • Team Barns: To the sides are the team-colored barns holding Control Point A & B respectfully. Each barn has three entrances from a rear plank, the side opening, and the front opening. On the rear plank is a small ammo kit.
  • Tool Sheds: In front of each spawn is an unfinished toolshed. To the left of the shed is their team's corresponding barn.
  • Ditches: On side of each team's spawn is a small ditch that can lead to their corresponding barn. Inside the ditch is a small health kit.
