just started making a map and i want some feed back on it.

this is a casual 2v2 map where the middle holds an extreme advantage. The disadvantage, however, is that this expansion is nearly impossible to hold due to the various ways to enter and the vision of the xel tower directly into the base. lots of sight to scout easily.

middle is divided by a high ground

and here is a quick doodle of what its like XD

don't you think it would've been a better idea to figure out how to upload pics first before creating this thread?

you can edit your original post, instead of creating new posts
that way, when people come to this thread they'll see your picture and updates in the original post instead of having to look for it

So, wait, the third is more accessible than the natural? How does that work?

I'm a bit concerned about positional imbalances. The minerals and geysers in the main don't always have the same orientation; for example, the gas in locations 1 and 3 would be easier to pick off than the ones in locations 2 and 4.

Feel free to make the ramps larger as well, as otherwise it'll be a void-ray, medivac-dropping banshee-rushing frenzy map.

Also, don't forget: doodads are your friend(s)! They can make an otherwise plain map really stand out.
