Welcome to the Green Monster. This court was created for use with dodgeball game variants, specifically my own variant: Green Dodgeball. Most of the dodgeball courts I've played on in Halo have been quickly put-together arenas where cheating is easy (and prevalent). My goal was to create one where you couldn't get to the other side of the court. So, I put a barrier down the centerline complete with anti-crossing teleporters (the green in the Green Monster). These teleporters will send you back to the middle of the court semi-randomly, but watch out... occasionally you will be teleported almost right back to where you started, so don't overuse them, lest you get a grenade to the head.

But that's not all...

The court starts out fairly wide open, with a long initial rush to the midline spike grenades. At 30, 60, and 120 seconds into the game, though, the court shrinks, forcing stay-back-lobbers into the fray. This keeps the action exciting and the grenades flying. Plasma and more spike grenades spawn into the map at 10 seconds in. And a few firebombs spawn for each team at 20 seconds. Additionally, there are several defensive powerups to give your side the edge: A bubble shield and two flares will spawn for each team.

What if we want more than 2 teams?

The Green Monster is complete with stadium seating and a playground on the opposite side of the fence (see screenshots). Just put your third team as a different color and they can watch the game or mess around with the soccer goals placed in back without interfering with play. The three teams will be 'round-robined' into play.

So download the game and map and start sticking your friends. I've spent many hours making and playtesting this map and plan to spend another several messing around with it today. Feel free to comment here, send me a message, or suggest improvements. Thanks, everyone.

Version 2 Updates:

1) Gotten rid of the deployable cover. Thanks to XxTexasHornxX for noticing my oversight there.
2) Modified the exit teleporters. It's not not possible to land on the spawning boxes and hide.
3) Pushed the weapon holders up to the barriers to hold them in place.
4) Improved the grenade placements just a touch.
4) Edited the spectator area. Now you don't need special powerups (that only last for 90 seconds) to keep spectators out or the court.
5) Added aesthetic timed events. The corner "lights" (overshield, etc.) come on at 0, 30, and 60 seconds, while an unreachable overshield appears at 120 seconds letting the players know that "overtime" has arrived.
