	DeGroot Keep is a relatively small Attack / Defense map that takes place in a (supposedly) 10th Century European manor on a forested hill. The surrounding buildings and keep fortifications are built in a medieval European-style. A few torches are spread throughout the map, which allow [[Huntsman]] [[~~Sniper]]s to light their arrows on fire~~. The flagship feature of this map is the castle keep which is this map's namesake, DeGroot Keep. The keep is a European style medieval castle made of cobblestone.

	~~This map consists~~ of ~~three control points~~. ~~Control points~~ A ~~and B are~~ to the ~~west~~ and ~~east of the keep itself~~ on ~~either side, and~~ a ~~castle gate blocks~~ the ~~third C~~. ~~Point C is only accessible by BLU after capturing~~ the ~~first two~~.

			BLU spawns in an archery training ground, protected from the outside world through a wall of large and pointy sticks. Going into the breach, Point A is set in a little town to the left, and Point B is set on a cliffside to the right. In both cases, RED team will descend from the battlements above to attack the peons below. When Point A and Point B are captured, the gate to Point C is open to the masses.
