As far as PvP goes (and I'm not entirely sure if this is purposeful) the high ground near the entrance to the main serves as a great way to be able to hold off any sort of 4 Gate/Early All-in style attack. I haven't actually seen any pro level PvP's take place on this map, but I feel like the way the entrance is made would allow one to get Robo units off of one base while holding off aggression (that being said recent patch changes have helped this in PvP anyways). Aesthetically I love the way this map looks, and personally I have no problem with it; except in TvZ. The map really is a nightmare for Terran, and I feel like it almost forces them into some sort of one base play. I play Terran and I have no problem taking my natural on other maps with "hard to secure naturals" such as Xel'Naga Caverns, Slag Pits, or Metalopolis. But the few games I've played here have all resulted in me having a really difficult time securing the natural. | ||

 but it feels like heaven for terran so many beautiful ledges and edges for tank to put in place. Except for the ledge at your entrance to base.. imagine having expo there and siege tanks on this ledge above. When suddenly come couple of zerglings into your mineral line... ouch this splash damage on your scvs would be heavy | ||

I prefer the fully clear water over this anyday, and that actually what it looks like at the beach. Beach water looks different at beaches all over the world. I really like the water on this map, and color-wise it goes great with the rest of the map | ||
