Scraton – Boundless

I had so much fun playing this map. This may be a map for a minority (spoiler: its ~10 minutes long) but its a good example of a longer and demanding map with great flow. Zyx_xd is a mapper i haven't really noticed before and even if its prominent that the map is made by a rather new mapper, it is engaging and leaves room to move your body while slicing your way through some good tunes. No map is perfect and a 10 minute map is almost determined to feel repetitive but zyx_xd did a good job with keeping the patterns interesting enough to not let this repetitiveness overcome the player. Some parts of the map felt off time (like at 3:20 maptime where the saxophone starts, could also be the jumping between instruments without a clear reason given by the song which just makes it feel off), some parts felt overmapped (like at 0:35 maptime where the lyrics start and this made me categorise the map into advanced and not intermediate) but all in all the map felt great and fitted the song pretty well. This map is definitely not a masterpiece but it is one of the better 5+min-maps out there and I would recommend it to everyone looking for a small workout.
