Your map is really nice. I won't talk about imbalance, but I have one concern: it feels like there is not enough space for many buildings in the mains.
Maybe i'm wrong, it's hard to see on screenshots

It looks gorgeous, but I have to say I'm concerned about how it will play. I think the most important thing is being able to parse what is happening, and there's already a lot going on in SC2 battles. I'm worried that the extreme amount of visual detail will make that more difficult, but it's hard to say without actually playing on it some. I'll definitely take it for a spin or two and see what it looks like in-game.

This map looks really good! I wish more people would spend time on analysis and balance consideration like you did! I'm sure some of your maps will be in the official map pool sometime Keep 'em coming.

There is a lot of visual clutter in this map. I don't personally see how it would be played on. It is however, certainly original.

It looks really pretty, and I really need to play it before I can make any real comments about it, but I like the concept of the archon. My only other concern is that it may be be too cluttered with doodads and rocks and they could mess with unit pathing too much, but this I would definiately need to play test before condeming such a pretty map. I look forward to playing it when I get home

I feel if you make the ramps to the high yield in the middle very big, (combine those 3 small ramps into one) it might open up some space. Also, you should take out some (or all) of the Destructible Rocks in the middle.

I thought the ramps to the middle were too big before I made it 4x3 smaller ramps. That's also why I added the rocks below them, but I might take those out.


Well, they should be big. It makes the map more open and it makes the high yield harder to defend. Terran might have too much of an easy time defending if they Siege up a few ramps and wall off the others.

Personally, I would also make the High Yield Minerals normal (keep the 12 patches) and add gas. (possibly 4 geysers or high yield geysers) It would be a very rare circumstance where someone would need 12 patches of high yield minerals. That is just too much

I had thought about this. No matter how I placed the minerals/gas I just wasn't satisfied with the oppenness of the ramp up to them. I tried like 20 different ways and this is the ONLY one I was satisfied with the oppenness of all 4 ways up. That aside, I think that there is no such thing as too many minerals, unless you just cant keep your APM up :D As all races, make extra overlords/pylons/supply depots. Maybe use them to block off the middle. As terran, make extra barracks and spam marines. As protoss, extra gateways and spam zealots. As zerg, extra hatcheries, extra queens, spam zerglings!


Well, you can hardly say that because once the game goes to 3 base and beyond, everyone will be maxing out their army with gas as their only low resource. Zealots for Protoss might be the only effective mineral dump or Marines for a Bio Terran. But Zerglings and Bio Terran aren't that good because of Colossi, Siege Tanks, Infestors, and Roaches. And they is hardly a reason to buy more Pylons, Overlords, and Supply Depots than you need unless it is for a special reason.

Your map is a beauty, but the thing I love most is the layout of the Main, Natural, and Third.

Perfectly defend-able by P and T, but also harass-able by Z. Plus, all the destructible rocks take away any advantages from turtle play.

This would make an epic FFA map, and if you created a 1v1 version (Simply cut out 2 of the mains and make them face each perhaps? Playing this version 1v1 would make it way too easy to cheese with all those nooks and crannies for hidden tech. It would be VR madness), it would be epic.

Why does the bottom right island only have 6 mineral patches when I believe the rest have 7?

I think the map is looking really good, cant decide if it's a map that people would play in ladder games or not since I've only took a look at it in map editor and ingame alone...but I would like to see less water around the center.

Tried it out on high textures with my good ol 8800gt card but I seem to get fps drop in the center of the map. Sure could lower the graphs but I mainly play on high on all the other maps with great fps so I shouldnt be forced to lower graphs just for this one map. Just a tip and Good work!
