I feel like that goes against the original design of the map. The idea is that the really short paths are awkward to get large armies through, and the good attack paths are longer, so you have to spit your army a bit to take advantage of all the flanking opportunities instead of 1Aing your army. BW doesn't have 1a problem for this map to try and fix, but I still think making too many attack paths too good hurts the map's identity a bit. Those paths are awkward on purpose. | ||

I think this could play out really nicely. The two problems (already pointed out) is that there are almost no spots for overlords to hover at, its tau cross-ish in that regard so would probably be fine. Also for a Zerg third i think you are better off taking 3/9 with 3 lurkers to guard the reversed ramp there. If you can secure that spot i would make it very hard for T to go all the way around, and would open up some nice backstab opportunities/ opportunity to muta kill the troops from the high ground there to buy time to rearrange lurkers.

Something about BW and the liberties you had to take to make it work make it look great. Maps in BW just feel like thay have more space, I played a couple of games on CK on sc2, and in ZvP when we both had max armies it just felt cramped, although it is very good for flanks. | ||

I wasn't saying specifically the corner expo's, just adding a double gas SOMEWHERE would help to make up for he gas deficiency. That being said, I'm not sure that bases that hard to hold would be viable given modern modes of play. Corners are still pretty far from the natural and would require you to be really spaced out. | ||
