EPTAs soon as u take ur 3rd and build buildings over the geysers, you are suddently way more fragile to attacks because you cant defend it anymore?

On Adagio, it is more difficult because of where the thirds are located in relation to one another. If Zerg spawns bottom left and Terran spawns bottom right, Zerg's intended third is moved to the 9 o'clock third. This third is generally more difficult to defend because it is farther away, but since Terran spawned bottom right, it's the most logical third. In relation to Rhinelands, the third is more dangerous than the third of an equivalent scenario on that map. I ran into this problem on Noon Hill, but now I've managed to make sure that expanding in either direction is possible and equally viable/easy to defend. This is also without really taking the geysers of the thirds into effect, which could be even more annoying to deal with, but it does make up for the thirds small ramp, so I understand this, the problem is that you can get attack from two directions into the third. I just confused myself with my own post >.< I'll post it anyway, maybe you'll figure out what I mean. | ||

That is correct. Because of the free natural, taking your third cannot be too easy-- which is still pretty dang easy. | ||
