I put forced cross, and I would like to discuss why. It seems to me, regardless of the tanks-hitting-gas being changed, other abuse of that terrain is possible in closeR positions. like if both players are on 1 side of the map. As a Zerg player, my mutas can harass, then go defend my third no problem, and as I'm expanding away from the enemy, my expansions are safer, and the game is going to favor me in the long run. As a Terran player (for fun, been told I'm a better Terran than Zerg, but haven't tested it on the ladder) I don't like closeR positions because it seems to limit options I have of expanding, even to my third (against Zerg). It stretches me too thin while allowing the Zerg (specifically) to expand aggressively, and I can't do much about it. So to me, forced cross spawns would actually increase the map's balance by making players expand INTO each other, which, while is more Terran favored out of the two POVs I'm exploring here, it also means that the Terran cannot be spread so thinly potentially early in the game with harassment. This gives the Terran a greater chance in the long run to actually play a straight up macro game, and it gives the Zerg the same option, but without the ability to abuse certain map features. All of this is my opinion and from experience, I have like a 70% win rate on this map specifically on ladder. | ||

Though I agree that you are right with antiga having the highest chance to make it into tournaments. And with that ledge i guess it would make for quiet boring games, so it was a good move to fix it before it messes up tournaments. | ||

Regardless! Thank you for going through and reworking the maps to make them 'balanced'! | ||
