(3) Xel`Naga FortressSize : 148x148 Spawn Positions : 3 at 3, 7, 11 Published on [NA], [EU], [KR], [SEA] - [Official] XelNaga FortressThis map is supported by KeSPA Proleague Lobby Mod, WCS GameHeart![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/kVsL3BG.jpg) 90 degrees Camera View+ Show Spoiler +
▶ Concept
Xel`Naga Fortress is created and reinterpreted as the Blizzard ladder map, Xel`Naga Cavern.
On the center, there is a Xel`Naga Tower, so it is very important to fight against enemy troops. And it is possible to fight by using the outskirts.
Xel`Naga Fortress is named by the reinterpreted map of Xel`Naga Cavern and the shape of fortress
▶ Features
- This is the first 3-player map to be shown in StarCraft II.
- Although it is similar to Xel`Naga Cavern, but there are the advantage or disadvantage of harassing using the air units.

I saw Crevasse and this map. I think they might be a bit small, but the visuals looks very appealing!
|
Looks like a smaller, tighter version of Merry Go Round but the aesthetics are much nicer.
Still, I'd hate to play TvT on this because of the inherent balance issues in spawning locations.
|
I remember this map from 2011! Good times.
|
It was a beautiful take on Xel'Naga Caverns, and still is. It was really bold to do anything 3-spawn, but this turned out great for the time.

Since it's a LotV update of the original map I think it's fine as a blog.

all things considered, moving the counter-clockwise 3rd a bit closer to the map's centre would make it into a surprisingly playable LotV map.

The mineral lines. Crevasse also got the same treatment and a tileset update I think.
