I would love to see the map without the fog of war blockers and instead terrain there, increasing the rush distance of the map (and forcing players to knock down the middle if they want to attack).

This would completely ruin the Layout turn the map into a turtle fest. The rush distance is already bigger than on XNC and i'm absolutely happy with it. Moving around is now so much fun and changing it the way you mentioned would put zerg on a big disadvante during the later stages of the game. There would be only 3 path whereas two of them are rather small (using mostly double sized ramps).

I came in here hoping this would end up being a GalaxyEdit remake of the old DOS game, One Must Fall 2097.

That aside, it's still pretty nice looking map.

Hi there, need input: Slightly changed the 3rd (back ramp) to decrease the space at the 3rd itself and increase the low ground area - might make the 3rd even smaller but want to hear want the comm thinks about this first.

With MotM#5 at the door it try to make some last changes on the map. Need your input there:

I think that the HY is currently a bit to strong (a T will most likely try to get this as his 3rd everytime because he can control the map from there). So i either gonna change this into a HY with only 1 gas (like this: http://i.imgur.com/AtGo4.jpg) or i gonna swap the HY and the 4th and increase the ramp size to the 4th: http://i.imgur.com/H9Ku5.jpg (NOTE: ramp size not changed in this pic)).

What do you think?

Please do this one: http://i.imgur.com/H9Ku5.jpg . Love that one, coz you could get it 3rd, but then it would be super risky, dont really see allot of late game high yield so that could be cool.
Nice map.

I also like the new position of the high yield better.

-old 4th changed into 6(gold) minerals, 2gas bases (the new HY)
-pics updated accordingly

Upcoming changes to the map:
-sligtly pushed the ramp to the 3rd to the map corners (makes the area of the 3rd smaller)
-sligtly repositioned the main ramp to make up for nat changes
-reworked the nat (gas position) and entrance
-added a small highground in front of the nat

This changes allow for an easier and closer 3rd and should now favor this expo of the middle expansion.

//edit
DONE

Yeah, i also feel like it deserves to be part of the petition iGrok is running. We played a lot on MotM-Maps in our clan, and this map is one of our favourites.

Your map just got included in our clan league's map pool.

I'm glad i was able to get at least 1 custom map in there (our master players were pretty sceptical about everything they haven't seen already) but i am sure that your map will convince them easily so we will likely see more custom maps next season.
