alpha: work in progress. Not meant to be played, at least not seriously. beta: map is in a playable state, but not yet finished finished: finished map, but not guaranteed to be 100% positionally balanced and bug free tournament ready: has undergone additional testing, to ensure positional balance and bug fixing What it really means for people who dont know of his incredibly high standards: Alpha: A quality map. Beta: Far far better than most maps already. Finished: Balanced beyond the patience of mere mortals. Tournament Ready: Rose.of.Dream doesnt even know what he changed. | ||

It might be an interesting and entirely separate debate whether it would be possible and balanced to have maps where you can’t wall off. I’m guessing Zerg would just run rampant and it would be completely unbalanced but hey that’s a different discussion. | ||

This could be deliberate forcing players to not wall up and play differently but the fact that it's just the 9 o'clock and none of the other spawns naturals is surely extreme positional imbalance.

You are right, of course; that map needs some changes before it's actually balanced. I think I will have to shrink down all those ramps a bit, to make everything fit in properly. I should probably a list of known issues to each map. | ||

Maybe you guys should make a small tour, with like a 100$ or even 75$ prize, and it would be played on these maps ? Because it would be shame if all that nice work was spoiled.. I feel like - Voidrim, Shadowplay, Quintessence, Oxide and In The Way of an Eddy are quite playable, right ?  | ||

We had a 2nd BWMN Open planned but then it stalled cuz summer, lack of manpower, and working on new maps/maps for star server...Maybe when we all get the motivation to work on it it'll take off... | ||

But the ones up now are the newest ones, and probably the most interesting/best ones to pick up and play (if they are finished). | ||
