I think I also noticed something interesting about Ringing Bloom. Zergs in ZvP can't do the 4 base turtle set up because they need the sim city. Unless they get the macro hatch at the ramp fast enough maybe.

probably have to go 3 hatch or pool first opening

but now that you mention it, the map seems quite in favor against zerg

i could only find this map that reviewed the map but there's no subs

stork:


for ringing bloom, stork is saying this map is very good for protoss because protoss can go nexus first into gateway, and skipping forge and use 2 probes to block ramp, and lings can't attack. marines can be defended against because of high ground advantage. plus the fact that main is 10 minerals and backyard expo is 7 minerals make it very good for protoss. usually for maps with 10 minerals in the main, the expo should be 6 minerals, as stork highlights. 3rd base is also 8 mineral patches, and this is a macro map. as stork says, "i can order fried chicken at the start of the match, and the game will still be ongoing when the delivery arrives." simcity at 3rd map is hard for zerg, so it'll likely be a zerg graveyard. open map, hard sim-city expo making it heavily toss favored, but he expects the map to get some protoss nerfs.

mid expo should be impractical and would probably be never used.

Stork's video about Ringing Bloom I saw and even posted here, but thanks a lot for the translation

the other video was unknown to me, thanks for posting.

Already saw many games on Optimizer and Eclipse. They're both really refreshing and awesome. Can't wait to see them used more in tournaments. Especially (hopefully!) the non-kor ones.

@LatiAs: Are you aware that terrain levels for the unwalkable part of the new reverse ramps are all messed up? this causes vision bugs where you get vision of units/buildings on the edge of the high ground, but this can be easily foxed by replacing the buggy tiles with some standard cliff tiles.

Are those unbuildable tiles in the natural chokes intentional?

I'd also suggest you at least use something like this for unpassable Asphalt, as currently map readability is terrible for players:+ Show Spoiler [show image] +

Yeah, I noticed ramps' height problem, but it was after I finished all the work. It cannot be fixed now that the period has passed. But I think It is a small matter that can be ignored.

Unbuildable tiles are intentional. Without them, Terrans can block zerglings perfectly with 2 supply depots and 1 barrack at bottom left natural.
But tiles at top right is just for symmetry.

I'll think about your suggestion in the next version, including the ramp problems.

I've had a problem in a game last night where my reaver just wouldn't shoot down the ramp at the top right. My opponent's reaver was in range of my reaver, and neither of them would shoot. It was extremely frustrating since I lost my natural because of it.
After my natural died he also tried attacking up my ramp with his reaver, but his reaver would also not shoot.
Both reavers had scarabs available to attack.

oh snap.. this is not good at all and can cause huge problems if it happens in some bigger league like ASL or BSL or something like that.. should be fixed asap

Oh yes, there's an obvious Reaver jam there:
[image loading]

However, removing that unwalkable tile (red circle) below the geyser (never put unwalkable subtiles on or next to a geyser centre, by the way! Funky bugs are associated with that!) fixes it handily, while also taking care of another Reaver jam bug a bit outside the nat, fixing some potential mining issues, and all that with no ill by-effect whatsoever it seems!
Don't worry, I don't know about ASL policies, but a trivial but important fix like this should not be denied, even if team league had already started. And as for ladder, if you just send Matt Sherman a hotfix, the map will be updated on ladder within the week.

I'm figuring out some pathing problems (eg. route of workers moving from main to natural, mining path, reaver, ...)

if anyone find some buggy situations, please leave a comment here.. it would be really helpful for me ...
