MaxSpectators and SendBotsToSpectatorImmediately are rafmod values and as such break on vanilla servers. Please remove unofficial keyvalues from your pop file.

From the submission rules: Your mission must work on a vanilla TF2 server without any external mods or dependencies.

Judges present: None

General comments:

Wave 1:
- Remove crits on scattergun scouts
- Tone down heavy AI to normal
- Pacing issue with the buff soldiers at the end

Wave 2:
- Remove giant scouts (or replace them with something else)
- Some more pacing issues

Wave 3:
- Slow/delayed wave start
- The giant demo squad (spawncount 11) causes pacing issues since the supports take up all the bot slots, preventing the squad from spawning

Wave 4:
- Giant kritzkriegs do not pop; copy the template from an Anniversary Annihilation pop file.

Wave 5:
- Awkward pause at the start
- Bad pacing again
- Wave should end after the giants are killed (underwhelming finale)

Overall:
The mission has solid bones but needs some polish and ironing out. Expect more feedback from the judges.
I recommend watching the demo file to determine where the pacing issues are at.
