Well, the aesthetics all seem less impressive now that I've seen the HotS stuff.. Can't wait until the mappers can start using all that awesome stuff.

Great map, though. Gameplay wise, it should play pretty well.
all's fair in love and melodies

Great theme and incredibly detailed texture work! I love how you altered the textures around the base to make the resources feel more natural. At the moment, very few can rival your skill.

Can we expect a version on EU any time soon? It always sad when you find a map on TL and it's not published

Why a such small main? There isn't even a lot of space in the natural to compensate.

You should move the 3rd like on the picture, at this moment, even if it's overall tight around the area, the expand is quite far away.

The middle is good because even if it's tight, there is a lot of paths to flank. Players should play with their brain and not just 1a from one angle, i hope they will learn it more thanks to this map.
I also try to incorporate this kind of middle in my recent maps.

The expansion layout might be too linear (a bit like on Daybreak)

Great job with the deco, back in the beta i tried to make a flying island but it's so bad compared to this . I also like the use of Overgrown style protoss tiles.
And for the name, you should try "Sky Island", "Isle in the sky" isn't very beautiful and there are too many words :/


Oh and what happened to jacky? I don't see any maps from him for a long time

Oh god, this is sooo beautiful. Reminds me a little bit of Daybreak but... (don't let my absolutly not-nerdy girlfriend ever read this) I want to marry somewhere on this map.

I like this map because of all of the attack options and chokes. It makes you want to think before attacking a location. I can see a lot of thought went into this one, and the map came out great. I look forward to getting a few games on this myself, and I hope to see it in the GSL. If there is any way to increase the size of the main without harming the other features of the map, go for it.

LSPrime and Team Crux's works are awesome, simple, highly polished yet distinctive. Great job, hope to see it in the GSL soon.

Yay I'm quoted!

Awesome map btw, rename to Skysle or Skyland to make it sound more epic!

I did not check the balance yet. May do so later on
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.

Wow this is probably the best looking map since bel'shir beach! The whole floating island a la Pandora Hallelujah Mountains is extremely beautiful how is the balance has anyone played it yet?
Is it weird that I play most of my online games at work? And that it's a pizza place??

I do not really enjoy its current name, maybe something else would sound better?

-Aurora
-Misty Rainforest
-Cloud Forest
-???

I just feel that Isle in the Sky is long and a little bit unoriginal.

I would go with something like

Hanging Gardens
Sky Sanctuary
Risa (Star Trek refference)
Heaven Temple
Sky Retreat
Safe Heaven
Sky Shrine
...

I'll stop here
