Nice map! I'll try it out with a friend sometime. ^^
I'm glad you got rid of the swarms though, it makes the map a lot less zerg-friendly.

Yeah, I'll give this one a few plays too. It looks like a nice map to play on.

I wonder if it might be a nice idea to, sorry if this is too much of an adjustment, instead of having those two middle expos, put a river/body of water running across the middle, with a bridge or three dividing the north and south sides.

Again, sorry if that is changing your idea too much. I just thought I'd throw it out there.

looks bad for TvP

too much early game gas, protoss will just mass HTs and storm the crap out of terran off 2 bases

Yeah, I just played a quick PvT and it seems like it would be a bit imbalanced in that regard.


Also, there are gaps at the top of the stacked temples on the left side, and on the bottom of them on the right side. Even Dragoons and Tanks can fit through there, so the main isn't really well protected.

The natural expo on the left side of the map appears to have a place where you can drop a tank and cliff. The right side natural expo does not.

This map looks really nice now. The two base 3 gas might be suitable for some cool strats like 2 base hive vs terran or 3 port vessel right away vs zerg or like a really fast goon / ht / archon push pvz. A lot of gas makes for more fun play imo and the map design seems to suit itself for some wierd push timings. Good job. Too bad no one will ever play it competetively

Have you thought about giving one of the two main gases less starting resources? Like say, 1500 and 500?

Alternatively, you could have a normal second expo geyser, and instead put the Psi Disruptor building over one of the two geysers in the main. It could make for some interesting ZvZ that way.

I don't know if I like the idea of so much free gas, you need an incentive to take expansions imo. Then again I haven't played the map yet so I can't properly comment, those are just my initial thoughts.

How about Backyard? or Garden, cause the mains look like one with the grass floor and the "fence" around it : )

Looks like an interesting map. I wonder what it would be like with no ramps?
