Okay then, what makes a good handicap?
There are a couple of things that make a bad handicap.
The do handicap - "Yeah he's gotta plague his army lol"
Handcaps are mostly about what he can't do. If you tell he has to do something it raises when?/how?/where? questions - which makes the whole thing rather complicated - and if his opponent ggs before he can do whatever it is he has to do does he lose?
Please keep this in mind.
Thanks 
Yeah I'll have an obs version. I just figured I'd release the melee version first, and when I've decided on any final changes or modifications of it then I'll release a melee and obs of the latest version. If you have 2 maps (melee and obs) everything you change something you have to do it in both and upload 2 more up to date maps.

Energy Crysis Can only build 1 gateway or stargate per pylon
Recharge ! When attacking, must bring a probe along and start constructing pylons and shield batteries ( similar to terran making turrets )

No Zealots handicap seems pretty imbalanced to me. He can't end the game early without them, and if he doesn't have them its a nightmare to play in the mid or late game. Every solid D+ player will beat the living shit outta him
Gas cap handicap should be 2 assimilators imo, then there is absolutely no point of Forge FE, because the whole point of FE is to skip tier 1, which is kinda weak and go straigh for tier 2

Just tank it! - Only melee units allowed (spell casters allowed maybe)
Failed Tech Proxy - All tech buildings (robo/stargate excluded) must be built in the middle of the map so that it is easily scouted/destroyed by the opponent (opponent must be told location)
Now you don't see me... Now you do. - No cloaked units (arbiters included) (Only 1 observer is allowed)
Stone Age - No tier 3 tech (arbiters, carriers, reavers, templar) (Observers exempt)

handicap i think should depend on the way you get pawned, it should depend on strategy or BO used rather than unit used. just my 1 cent

Ambidextrous - Use the mouse in your non-dominant hand.
Yes my friend beat me once while doing that

Remuve the handicap about no observers. Even a d- p or z can win easy with this. Protoss have no other tipe of mobile detection it is really unpossible to play like that
