We've seen nothing that seems to suggest that it's not.
When Undead "released" the map, he and various other competitive players from different teams (including myself and yopa) played several games on it to test the quality of the map and the flow of the gameplay in both 2v2 and 3v3 scenarios. The significant majority of the feedback on this map was incredibly positive, so much so that there was even a petition for Larry to add the map to the AC Christmas Cup's map pool. Larry refused to do so on the grounds that the map is technically not official in 1202 (only in SVN iirc), although we're more relaxed on such matters.

We're also glad to see that the competitive scene is picking up with some more activity again. We've considered the possibility that many teams may wish to participate, and this is something we're more than ready to cater for in future events. This first league is simply to try and keep the competitive spirit going semi-frequently and to act as an incentive for teams to train and participate actively in community-led events. It's also somewhat of a gauge on community activity - with as sporadical as it's been in the past we simply didn't feel comfortable setting the first league we're running at an incredibly high limit of teams.
We're happy to see that you'll be participating, and your interest/help is much appreciated. :)

I used to be, plus we needed a name for the league. Our original working title, while brilliant in its own way, probably wasn't the best thing to name a competitive tournament. :p
