Wow, this is excellent! I really like the map, and the improvements in each iteration are huge. Make sure you sign up for the MotM competition, this looks like it could compete.
EDIT: Get it published on EU!

Primary problem I see is that a terran sieged up on the edges of the middle can deny almost every counter attack path to their base. Map seems really good for T really bad for Z.. The paths in general are very small and the middle can still easily be controlled by tanks.

Would like to see the pathing around the center expanded and possibly a high ground expansion near the middle.
If I only had a little humility, I'd be perfect.

Minor Update

- Fixed some mineral positions
- Retexture in some areas
- Modified XNTs (vision is not sufficient to siege base)
- Added rocks to stifle freedom of movement (zerg runby was a tad too abusive in testing)

(updated pictures in OP)

The paths are much wider than what you may think from the pictures.

It's cool and all but every base is so wide open.

You should try re-texturing this in a city setting imo.

Very crevasse-esque using the rocks to force people to go throught he center at the beginning of the game.

I really like this map. dont know how i didnt c this b4.

i love the fact that even if you spawn counter-clock to your opponent, you still have a decently easy 3rd base (one going to the center) and then you can take a 4th elsewhere on the map. very neat design.

I've been staring at this for ages trying to think of a way to improve it, and I'm really struggling. Great map, would love to see some games played on it.

I also prefer the version before :/

The high ground path in the middle seems so narrow now. If you really wanna keep it that way I'd probably remove the hole in the middle and make the center low ground a bit smaller, which would also widen those narrow paths a bit.

It's kind of a good map, but I don't really like maps with like 4 xel nagas in the middle. They cover way too much space, and also you can see your opponent move out from his natural with the tower, which is silly.

Great job overall

Either the ramps into the middle need to be enlarged or the circular high ground paths need to be widened. A player has the options to pick one or the other path, but both have chokes. Other than that this is a solid map, besides roational imbalances, of course.

the xnt's provide vision of only a smart part of these ramps (see pics in OP), so you need to keep a good eye on the minimap to catch them. also, your fault for being a lazy player and not bothering to try to take the XNTs

yea, i think i made the ramps too small from the previous version, its updated now. but the bypass width will remain small; any larger and it becomes redundant, and players will not bother to use the wider rock'd path to get around.

Can the XWT be easily cleared from the neighbouring high ground by stalkers/marauders? Hard to tell from the overview, but I think that would effectively address any problems with being scouted when moving out.

Replace the rocks by normal cliff or the number of openings would make it, as day[9] states: 'a blizzard map who hates people that expand'.
Comparing BW with SCII is like comparing a beautiful three-master sailing ship with a modern battlecruiser. Both are beautiful in their own way, both perform the same task, but they are worlds apart in how they are built and how they are steered.
