Ok, first of all, the first map looks like a coldfront version of a lovechild between granary, viaduct pro, and koth_ashville, each of which are maps I think I'd much rather play than that. Honestly I'm not a fan of the design, and I think that like even viaduct_pro might be a better map for koth.
I just don't find small koth maps that viable in pubs, since it's a serious clusterfuck 90% of the time. I guess if you're going for the Highlander route this map works okay, but it's a little big I feel like for any team to be able to stably control and hold the midpoint. Also by that I mean that teams can easily hold mid and it would be a bitch to check flanks all the time and make completely coordinated pushes.
