For example: the map looks very zerg favorite (it looks really open), but given the positive feedback, I'm sure it looks wrong. So some first person experience explanations would be very welcome. I'm very curious about it. | ||

as for Starlight Breaker, well the 3rd is just way too easy to protect simultaneously as your nat. er meaning that if you're defending your 3rd, youre also essentially defending your nat. also the gold bases are too close to the main, easily tankable from above. seeing as how there's only 5 bases per player, gold included, it would be nice if you had the option of taking the other gold as your 5th rather than the one that's close by air to main only. also, I personally dislike golds and don't think they belong in sc2, and would rather not see them in any maps. | ||

Just how it appears to me in some of the cases. Daggoth crater and cloud kingdom look really interesting to me though. It will be fun to see how these turn out. | ||

Haven is the only map to me that has a fun, refreshing concept. +1 (The general idea, I am not good enough of a player to judge Haven or any other on first glance.) A good concept can always be made to look cooler. A bad idea painted in fluo colors will still be a bad idea. Anyway, good work everyone who tried, the judges, and Blizzard if they become more open using maps or map ideas from the community. | ||

I really don't see any reason why those rocks couldnt just be permanent walls. besides that it looks amazing. as for Starlight Breaker, well the 3rd is just way too easy to protect simultaneously as your nat. er meaning that if you're defending your 3rd, youre also essentially defending your nat. also the gold bases are too close to the main, easily tankable from above. seeing as how there's only 5 bases per player, gold included, it would be nice if you had the option of taking the other gold as your 5th rather than the one that's close by air to main only. also, I personally dislike golds and don't think they belong in sc2, and would rather not see them in any maps. Okay, thanks a bunch. Though I feel I could've just gotten rid of the middle paths if I'd been contacted. The Starlight problems seem reasonable though. Thanks for the feedback. | ||
