I havent made a melee map ever but i gave it a try after finding out my map editor had a MIRROR option >> Well, i came here to ask for information about my map because im not a good map critic and its wrong for me to judge my own map.
Heres how it looks

I think it's good for Z. I also think the 3rd gases at the top and bottom should be a little more accessible... mineral wall and buildings is really a pain.

Mine a mineral with 2 Drones and stop 1 drone from mining so it unstacks into the expo.

You can do this with all races

Fix gas imba please. The problem with any position except left or top is that they're imbalanced for each specific race. Top and left have similiar harvest rates for each race, but down and right are really imbalanced depending on which race you have. It's just a mess.

which is why mapmakers try not to use horizontal mineral layouts of starting positions

yeah and once you fix the gas positions it becomes non-mirror and things like mutalisk harass will be more or less effective depending on starting position.. bleh
