Okay, I couldn't think of a more original name. =/

Version 2.2
[image loading]


Changes from previous version:
- Reduced gas below town hall to 2000
- Fixed temple gaps
- Fixed crystal gap near 6
- Fixed nat cliffable area

Download link: http://www.mediafire.com/?gznq5duajmm (Version 2.2)

+ Show Spoiler [Version 2.1] +
[image loading]


Changes from previous version:
- 3 temples at jungle ramps removed
- Psi Disruptor added at nat gas so that it has to be destroyed to mine gas from it


+ Show Spoiler [Version 2.0] +
[image loading]


Changes from previous version:
- Removed dark swarms
- Added 2 mineral-only expos at center of map
- Fixed temple glitch


+ Show Spoiler [Version 1] +
The eye in the center is for decoration purposes lol

Anyway, here's my latest map:

[image loading]


Features:
- Main: 10M 2G (1500/5000)
- Nat: 8M 1G (1500/5000)
- Mineral-only expo at 12/6: 5M (1500)
- Corner expo at 5/11: 7M 1G (1500/5000)

- 2 Dark Swarms at corner expos
- Crystals are for blocking the small gaps between raised jungle terrain and high dirt terrain, nothing special
- 3 non-stacked temples at jungle ramp to prevent fast rushes
- 2 5x stack temples at 'backyard' that opens up new route
- 2x power generators to tighten choke at mineral-only expo
- Jungle ramps are unbuildable



Not sure about balance though. Feedback and comments welcome. (Might work on the aesthetic part later on)

I only put the dark swarms because I thought Zerg would lose out compared to other races @_@

So what if I remove the dark swarms? More balanced?

zvz map, for sure. walking distances are very long compared to air distance

plus, the swarms. we all learned a thing or two from persona.

Haha it felt rather big too, but didn't know what to do with it.

I'll try to think of something.

just tried the map out, you can just walk through the 2 5x temples, so you might wanna fix that, but overall, the map is pretty fun to imo, but the distance is a bit too big tbh :/

Super imba ZvT? Is that even possible on every single icc level, 2hat lurk opening, into securing those 2 gases with swarm, into 5gas filer/ultra/gaurd, how the heck are you supposed to beat that as T oO. 3gas muta off 2 base makes pure muta harass really impossible to defend against too with the amount of mutas that you can pump :/

Would the two gas in main be imbalanced for zerg and toss? though Terran can benefit from it a lot too.
Looks like Z will go heavy air on this map. Terran will turtle and Toss would recall. Yeah.

Yeah which is why I'm not sure about balance. Considering reducing the gas to 3500 each.
