I'm excited to see this map in the GSTL, especially with the water reflecting all the units and lasers that will be flying around on the battlefield. I'm very excited to see if the water is aesthetically viable on a competitive map.

can you drop behind the trees of the main? would be good for drops if you could. But i can only assume that's dead space.

looks like an oddly short distance game coming from the GSL.

Terran favored again tt

It feels like there should be a really risky expansion that also offers income if it goes into ridiculously late game.

The problem with risky expansions like that is they favor Terrans disproportionately to the other races because of planetary fortresses. The game doesn't necessarily have to be that late-game for Terran to take it whereas a Zerg (and to a lesser extent Protoss) absolutely cannot.

Woah, this is jawdropping beautiful. I really like the way the main overlooks the natural ramp. Interesting stuff! Is recent version on NA? Hoping to play tonight.

I will wake up every morning to running around this map in first person with a "sounds of the beach" track behind me.

It is a really beautiful map, but I feel kinda meh for the architeture. I mean, there are three entrances to your natural, making it very hard to T/P to secure early expansions. Hell, at least Backwater Gulch has rocks to two of the paths.

So, T-up for visual, T-down for architeture. I doubt anyone at GSL will like this map either.
