I do believe you have this in the wrong forum sir, it will be switched soon enough.

As for the map, fairly interesting! Hmm the min onlys look a bit far but I don't know how that would be a problem

looks so ez to run speedlings or mnms through nat into main. the ramp is so far from the crystals. securing a 3rd for any race looks pretty difficult. other than that is looks pretty cool.

It looks kind of T > Z It seems like Z would have a really hard time holding a third or a fourth in lategame. Also, I don't think the main and natural setup really lends itself to muta harass. If there's any way that T can wall in outside the nat, then I'd be sure it was T>Z

lots of wide ramps, does the natural only have six patches?

yes, becuase of the 9 patches in the main, and the abundance of minerals at expansions

The 4 and 10 o clock expansions look really interesting.

That being said I've hated almost every twilight map I've ever played so..... (well paranoid android was cool)

The 4 and 10 o'clock exps will be a nightmare to hold against a decent T. Just siege the tanks on that cliff and rain hell down on the exp. It's gonna be hard to take those tanks down unless you come from the wide ramp, because the smaller ramp creates an easily defendable choke.

I think it`s pretty hard for zerg. The nat seems very hard to harras with mutas.

It's clearly a terranish map, there's no open area and while toss could try to use cariers, there's nothing a zerg could do.

TBH the main problem I see with the map is the mini ramps near the top right and bottom left areas of the map. Because of the other ramps in close proximity to this miniramp, if terran puts siege tanks on that cliff, toss has no way of flanking around and would have to suicide.

seems like the 11 o'clock main is much better and easier to defend than the 5 o'clock main due to the ramp placement.

Protoss FE wallins that stop runthrough could be tricky. The 9 mins in main to lend themselves towards one base openings but the size of the map hinders that. I don't see PvZ being balanced here because I just don't see how a Protoss would play this map. It doesn't suit any current style. If you move the nats nearer to the ramps and narrow the choke a bit it'll be more easily defendable.

i would have said the opposite, tanks at the top of the 5 ramp can hit stuff coming through the nat 'choke', whereas they would have to be far from the ramp to do the same at 11.

but yeah it looks very cheesy and hard for zerg and toss.

Terran will have a lot of fun trying to stop the Protoss just outflanking him at will. The strong points to hold are completely avoidable. You can go up either side and it's impossible to create a defence spanning the entire centre.

Seems a bit uninspired to me. What role does this map fulfill that some other doesnt already do? Not saying variety isnt good, but maps ver similar to this has been done, and executed better already.

So undecorated.

I would like to see how the random ramps (more like pyramids...) in the middle of the map do.

Even if there are flaws with maps I think we should make a map pool consisting of maps from TL users and have some sort of tournament
EDIT: Well assuming the map isn't totally imba/retarded...

I don't agree. I'm not saying looks are unimportant but playability is more important. Also, I don't think that this map looks bad as is.

Every "role" for a map has already been done. The game has been out for ages. Try not to be so negative.

I think a few big problems have already been stated. T>Z and P>T looks to be the case.

If you compare this map to some of the others that've been posted by Starparty, nightmarejoo, etc., you'll see that this map is horribly undecorated. The terrain looks blocky with tons of straight lines, no doodads, no terrain decoration, etc.

Which isn't to say it isn't a good map, but it's definitely not v1.0 worthy. Maybe like, say, a v0.95, just so you have (much needed) room for decoration before an official release of it.

I agree, but I don't think that's a bad thing- Maps that have a lot of places to cheese are generally interesting to watch being played.

You should find and download the backwards ramps (ramps pointing up). One who starts at the bottom is at somewhat of a disadvantage due to his ramp being closer to the outside than the other start position's.

Also, like ppl have said before, it looks difficult to secure a third (especially for zerg), but maybe that's what you wanted.

Other than that, it looks pretty good. A little cramped for zerg, but other than that, not bad.
