Do the big crystals disappear from the two unused starting points at a later point of the game? If they don't we're going to have ourselves a very unusual map. They do not. Also, players' buildings can overlap slightly in their start location. I believe the way it works is that people can build one building at the location where the crystal was even though their CC/hatch/nexus also partially occupies that spot. I think this is necessary because the mains are very small. ![[image loading]](https://i.ibb.co/MBc7JWm/SCScrn-Shot-081821-200232.png)
Looking at that, the main really does look VERY small.

tak pierogi kurwo! :D

Saying Stork using a 1base Carrier build to beat Light is kinda misrepresenting,
because the 2 gas + number of mineral patches make this essentially 2base Carriers
but that is exactly why this map has a huge problem, Protoss can pull off 2base Carrier with all the advantages that 1base has to offer (no need to spend 400 on 2nd nexus, easier defence)
This map is worse than the Third World map in ASL5 in terms of being a TvP graveyard.

The tree tiles in the centre do not only block vision, and restrict unit movement, but also provide cover to units. Unlike on Demon's Forest the tree tiles are left out in places where they'd cause vortice bugs.

Can you like stack turrets inside your CC?

This map is a bit too much for my simple brain.

Any building, even another command center.

this map looks like it glitched out from an unreleased original blizzard 1998 map pack

Stork still took the mineral only natural so you do have to spend 400 minerals on a second nexus, but it is easier defence as you only have one choke but effectively 3 bases for the price of 2.

I can't get enough of this map... but I do worry about PvZ (based on the ASL group C match between Movie and Hyuk).
Still... Very excited to see more games. I love that ASL keeps introducing unique maps, even if they end up being terrible. It makes for a really entertaining viewing experience.

So can zergs just stack hatcheries?

this map actually saved ASL 12, other maps were so boring.
