My only major concern is that the first five bases feel very easy to defend. Since there are only two highground chokes with small ramps to defend, I think the gameplay will be very turtley. In my opinion you should open up the highground area. I suggest widening the ramps, something like this http://i.imgur.com/wy9Iq.jpg. The middle expansions seem too close to be split between the players, especially since there is a tower between them. Essentially there are going to be 2 or 3 unused expansions every game in the center. Unfortunately I don't know how to fix this- it is just something to avoid in the future. Glad you're back | ||

lol Grave of Despair sounds weird.... Plains of Despair much better. Personally I like one word names, so I would say something like "Caldera". | ||

 I like how you made the nat more vulnerable and forced the defender to defend more aggressively to abuse highground at the nat. I'm curious about rush distance. 152x152 with nats and thirds all the way in the corner looks like scary long ones. I personally dislike how you changed the position of on of the bases compared to Shakuras and I agree with monitor that it seems like you can 5-base turtle way too easy on this one. Plus the fact that now you can't really take the middle base as a third and follow it up with another middle base as a fourth like you could on Shakuras with T/P. This is actually the reason I don't like this map very much. Sorry but imho TPW Overgrown > this map. Aesthetics are outstanding as always tho! | ||

Just my two cents. This. + Show Spoiler [Like this:] + . . ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/ZgaF2.jpg) The way it is right now, the alternate attack path is so roundabout, it will only be used as part of a dedicated all-in attack (on 2 bases for that time of game), or it will be used for a 2-prong attack focused on high-mobility units like hellions or zerglings. In that case, it's really hard to hold the highground in front of your natural without letting hellions or zerglings slip by on either side, so it's really hard to "move out" making players turtle even more. With a center path into the 3rd, it actually helps the defender keep a forward defensive position where he can fall back to either the natural or the 3rd easily. Oh and name ideas: -Shrine -Temple -Throne -Dais | ||
