OMG, that's an amazing name! It even has the ring around the entire cross!

"Celtic Cross" captures the essence of the map better than "The Ring"!

Mandala has a harmonic and soothing sound to it and gets my vote.

It's interesting how the symmetry works in this map. The mains are rotationally symmetrical, but the central parts additionally also have full x- and y-symmetry.

Any data on the map to look at? Seems hard for T to gain a 3rd base.

You can still go with Zelda or Ocarina

I think Drone or Quadcopter works too.

Like the other suggestions too.

Minus vote on Mandala

Seems ok if T spawns clockwise to the opponent. Counter-clockwise it does seem a bit difficult though. TvP/T means they have to spread their tankline out across a huge area. TvZ means likely lots of ling attacks on the exposed 3rd.

Hii FlaShFTW, thanks for your message! I'd like to understand your comment better. I thought that if Terran spawns in a counter-clockwise position to their opponent, they could play like on Eclipse: Expand at the short entrance multi (leaving the path to the other side open, thus leaving their natural a bit vulnerable), and then expand to the wide entrance multi (as is customary on Eclipse). The big difference would be that it would take the enemy much longer to reach the Terran 3rd and 4th bases, but the defending Terran players could move quickly from their natural

Yes, I agree that there are many paths for Zergling attacks, but I tried to make as many paths as there are on Eclipse. Do you think this will be too difficult to defend against?

Eclipse was a tough map for ZvT, and completely impossible for Utrallisk based builds. I wanted to create an Ultralisk-friendly version of Eclipse.

Eclipse was a tough map for ZvT, and completely impossible for Utrallisk based builds. I wanted to create an Ultralisk-friendly version of Eclipse.

So my example was saying if T spawned 11 and opponent P/T spawned 1. Expanding to 10 in this position for 3rd may be a bit tricky, but I think as long as you give them enough space to build turrets/depots that it should be fine. If they can secure the 3rd and have a solid base, then expanding further shouldn't be an issue.

For TvZ, using same spawns, I think it will be difficult but Terran can always pin back Zerg and look to also expand to 12 if they can secure outside of Z natural as an example.

Btw, I don't mean to say that something being difficult/hard = bad map. Some races will inherently have weaknesses on a map and that's ok.

In the other hand, using same spawns. If zerg spawned 11, and terran spawned 1, zerg can abuse the cliff, and hit terran buildings and marines with invisible mutas

Thank you all so much for your votes!

It seems that "Nocturne" without "of shadow" is the most preferred name among all the options!

I'd just like to know if you genuinely prefer the name 'Nocturne' over 'Nocturne of Shadow,' or if you just chose 'Nocturne' because it closely resembles 'Nocturne of Shadow' from Zelda.

I also want to add that from all the suggestions in this thread, I believe 'Celtic Cross' best represents the essence of my map:

In fact, I prefer 'Celtic Cross' over 'Nocturne' or 'Nocturne of Shadow'!
What do you guys think about this name?

Hmm.. yeah.. "Celtic Cross" sounds great, too. And makes the most sense, considering the map layout, imo.

I think Celtic Cross is the best name so far. That or Turtle.
