'''Reckoner''' is a map that has recently become increasingly popular in the [[Glossary#PUG.2C_Pickup|PUG]] scene across North America, as well as Europe and Australia. The map is still in its beta stages of development,<ref name="cp_reckoner (5CP)">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/29927/ cp_reckoner (5CP)]</ref> and author [phi] (who is also the creator of [[Sunshine]]) has stated that the map "may or may not be ready for an ESEA launch, but that's up to the players and their feedback".<ref name="phi's comments on the state of Reckoner">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/33098#16 phi's comments on the state of Reckoner]</ref>

<br /><br />

Both '''Snakewater''' and '''Product''' (or '''Viaduct Pro''') have updated versions compared to the renditions of the maps used in the previous season. Snakewater started undergoing minor changes on February 10th 2016<ref name="Updating cp_snakewater">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/31638/ Updating cp_snakewater]</ref> to optimise the map further for competitive play, and is currently in the <code>_u7</code> version.<ref name="chojje releaseing the u7 version of Snakewater">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/31638/?page=5#149 chojje releaseing the u7 version of Snakewater]</ref> The release candidate version for Viaduct Pro was updated before the beginning of Season 21 to <code>_rc8</code> (along with the name change to ''Product''),<ref name="Koth Product (former pro viaduct)">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/25773/ Koth Product (former pro viaduct)]</ref> and currently [[ESEA]] is the only league which still uses the <code>_rc7</code> iteration.

'''Metalworks''' has been a long-time unpopular map in the rotation, and has been put up for potential replacement in map votes of seasons past. Prone to lengthy stalemates and [[Glossary#DM|DM]]-heavy playstyles, removing the map for Season 22 would end a nine-season streak for Metalworks.
