 I think you should at least consider making some rocks like the gold rocks on Testbug, so they block the minerals but don't block building a main building. That wouldn't be that Terran favored. | ||

Pro-gamers are testing this map. If it has problems, I modify. Thank you for your opinion and I'll refer them before modify this map. :D | ||

Btw. I think your first picture is of an old version, at least the natural choke looks different to the one on the angled overview  | ||

Looks like a map it is easy to 3 base turtle on, which imo favors T and P over Z. There's a Xel Naga tower conveniently positioned so that there's no surprise attack, and the area for a potential muta harrass is quite small geometrically speaking once the 3 bases are up. | ||

What is interesting is how every single base can be choked in rather easily. Meaning zerg will have to go either nydus or air as decent sim city can prevent pretty much all flanks. The easily available third I think is kind of good, as we atm we really only get a 2base w/ a choke or a 1base w/ an open natural creating a meta game focused on denying the third and operating primarily off 2 mining bases. A 3 base map should cause some interesting macro play, however previous attempts haven't been exactly perfect (ie typhon). All in all unless 3 base maps are just inherently imbalanced this helps give us a variety of easy to defend 1, 2 and 3 base maps. Which should hopefully create some variation in play. Like terran trying mech against toss due to the extra income, etc. | ||

Other than that it's a good map. Any map that doesn't have a gold is a huge plus from me. | ||

But damn this map is soooooo anti muta and drop x3. Meta game breaker, so i am really curious the playstyle should get pretty different in many matchups. | ||

3 easy bases, even the 4th is kinda easy. only 1 way into the natural + high ground for siege tanks to siege the only way into the natural. i dont think the map is open enough, everywhere u go u have to go through a ramp or a tight choke. | ||

Same was said about crossfire. And there weren't even that many attack pathes. Lets wait and see. | ||

It means once you have your save 3 bases on your side you will take the opposing main, so if the terran or toss attacks the zerg will have way more time to react and the toss/terra will always bring their army out of posi. Not seen often in sc2 though so i don't have many hopes especially since nydus is helpful there. But damn this map is soooooo anti muta and drop x3. Meta game breaker, so i am really curious the playstyle should get pretty different in many matchups. I think the rocks preventing easy thirds would make counteract that? | ||

I can see many 1hour+ matches on here.... And yet this is exactly what I want! What strikes me is that there are going to be SO many places to burrow banelings on this map... not sure I like the narrowness but the number of counter-attack paths and the easy 3 bases both appeal to me as a zerg | ||

Honestly, the typo and lack of capitalization is very off-putting. Great map though! Hoping to see some epic games on it! | ||
