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  | ||

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. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/SjiOT.jpg) 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 | ||

Awesome map btw, rename to Skysle or Skyland to make it sound more epic! + Show Spoiler + I did not check the balance yet. May do so later on  | ||

In addition to being super cool, the map is pretty and seems balanced. I wonder if the high-ground natural makes it too easy to expand, but at the same time, I do like fast expands. I like the spiral-expanding layout, where you expand sort of away from your opponent if you go clockwise. This is a 2-spawn map that in a way, feels like a 4 spawn map. The xel naga towers and elevation changes in the midfield make the play tactical and make tank pushes stronger but also more dangerous if you're near a high ground. The fact that the towers are on low-ground areas NEAR high-ground areas makes things interesting, and causes some tower-hugging with tank armies. Due to the broad and numerous ramps into the later expansions, the fact that they're on the high ground isn't an imbalancing factor. Overall, I have no major criticism of this map. It's tactically very fun and makes for interesting, bracing TvTs with its many ground routes and complicated elevation changes. I kind of wish I had a zerg or protoss partner on KR, so all I can comment on is TvT. Good luck! http://drop.sc/48360 | ||

Castle in the Sky is such an awesome movie, I think it's cool having a map that's name reminds me of it. That being said, I also really like the name Hanging Gardens. Regardless of the name, I really want to play on this map, please upload to NA! (Also, I feel like getting a third on this map would be super difficult vZ, so I'm not sure I like that aspect of the map, but I haven't play it yet...) | ||
