I'm going to start posting map concepts I want to try out here. Once I get SC2 (and the Editor ofc) I will try to make these maps work out.

Comments and feedback = THX

note that the Start location in the center is a mistake

Actually I was gonna say it's very similar to Rivalry, or Luna.

The only difference with Fighting spirits is that the naturals are much more vulnerable.

the only problem i see with this is that the natural is very open to harass by units that can cliff jump or just tanks etc.

I will obviously rearrange things as I see fit once I can start testing out the concepts/designs. any thoughts?

A few things to note on Collision:

- There are too many Watchtowers (maybe not?)
- Destructible Rocks necessary?
- The center expos along the high ground have few minerals (Will that be a problem?)
- I will fine tune the distances and symmetry (siege, blink, etc. attributes will all be duly noted when applying distance and space to the map).

Why is there a start location in the middle of the map?

The third expo with the neutral building looks tankable.

Holy shit watchtowers galore.

Other than that I really like it. The shallow water feature looks really nice.
If you watch Godzilla backwards it's about a benevolent lizard who helps rebuild a city and then moonwalks into the ocean.

I feel it needs more high yield patches?
Perhaps the make the low ground thirds high yield as they are cliff-able.
Also it seems that in certain positions it would be fairly easy to cliff the opponents natural. Say I spawn at 8 my opponent spawns at 11. The travel distance for me to ramp that leads to the high ground over his natural is less (before the destructible rocks are removed) that he distance he needs to travel to protect the cliff of his natural.

Yeah that actually sounds like a great idea. Maybe add Rocks to the other ramps at the 12, 9, 6, 3 expansions to seal it off completely? When I get to the editor, I'm going to try my best to seal off the high ground at those expansions via cliff jumpers from the opponent's side.
