Assessment

This map's claim to fame here is its competitive inclusion. Its Liquipedia 'What Links Here' page shows it's been used in quite a lot of events. The criteria for notability and their assessment are as follows (needs to meet 2 for notability):

  • Original version
    • −  Not an original version
  • Used in a notable community event
    • −  Not used in any notable events as they are all region locked.
  • Significant use
    • +  Its main use has been in competitive, which I think it qualifies for significant use based on the Liquipedia page linked above.
  • History making / Originated or promoted new community activities
    • −  Only used in standard competitive formats with nothing new.
  • Perpetual event
    • −  Not part of a notable community event so cannot apply to this map.
  • Reported in game media / Discussion among the community
    • Pictogram neutral.png  I found some discussion on Teamfortress TV (one of the main competitive forums) where it is mentioned in several different forum posts. However, that is also limited to a single community. Every other appearance was just videos of competitive matches taking place on the map, and there weren't that many of them.

I'm currently leaving the article up to see its progress in a while and to think about if the last point qualifies as being enough discussion (seeing as it's a comp-only map, perhaps looking deeper into comp-related places.

I could not find any additional discussions, mostly because the RGL Discord is locked behind creating an additional account besides Discord, which I don't particularly feel like doing for a simple count of how much Sultry is discussed. I did check the TF2Maps Discord which seems to have discussed it quite a bit with one user describing it as a staple of competitive play. I think it is sufficiently discussed within the relevant communities (main competitive play forum + a server dedicated to TF2 mapping) that I would count it as sufficiently discussed amongst the community.
