+ Show Spoiler + Ha, seriously though, I think the only problem is that the middle is too cramped. Oh, and welcome back ^^ | ||

I wonder if you should just make the 3 bridges in the middle 1 big area, because there's enough holes and cliffs around that area anyways and mech is already strong due to only needing like 3 sensor towers. And this way Zerg can actually engage better, and bio can't get FF'd and splashed to death. But ofc this is just from looking at it, but these were the problems that someone from ICCUP map making team said that kept destination from being a decent sc2 map. | ||

Especially in sc2 you got to allow more space so splash doesn't rape everything, and so that FFs don't rape everything neither.

But if u take away those 3 bridges, it's no longer the revered BW Destination :[ | ||

I really want to see some good games on it, see how easy it actually is to cut off the three bridges. | ||

Overall, good map. I like the addition of one gas in the back bases. | ||

I like the overall layout and think that it is definitely a map heading in an interesting direction. | ||

I like the addition of one gas in the back bases. I agree that the holes should be removed, they seem unnecessary. However, I think the bridges are fine, since the entire point is that they are 3 narrow chokepoints - it's a risk to move your army through and get caught in the middle, but the advantage is that the path is shorter. If you don't want to take that risk, there is the other, wider path around the side of the map... | ||

Nah I'm kidding, this map brings back memories of me and my brother playing LAN when we first learned how to play SC. Good times! Leave the three bridges the way they are. Might be the little kid inside me saying that, but I think it could work. | ||

The units and pathing is so different for SC2 that BW maps have to be altered so much sometimes ..... and then it's no longer THE BW map :[ | ||

first off the hole that i added. the thing is, on destination the area infront of the natural is freaking huge and such huge areas usually dont work in sc2. first, with the modern unit clumping there is no need for them and second, it favours zerg. Open Area: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/d0ZH1l.jpg) So i added that hole to create 2 chokes that can be used to forcefield and just to break it up a little. the chokes are still pretty big though. Open Area with hole: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/rTLZ0l.jpg) i know its hard to see proportions as a nonmapmaker and only with a overview picture. if some americans wants to host it on US that would be great, so u could check it out urself. secondly the bridges. the area around them is still pretty massiv, so they are just another choke to break it up. and furthermore there are enough side pathes to move around if u dont want to fight there. and thirdly the main, its perfectly fine. its not 446whatever (the editor is dumb when u add random minerals somewhere) try it ingame pls | ||

Really? No one has commented on low ground siegeable main mineral line? Even if terran does not do that, the cliff near main makes other haras much stronger. Huge ground area behind main (and natural) mineral lines will make mutas much much less useful. Forcing 4baseVS4base in this map against zerg seems pretty easy. It is borderline hilarious how strong bunker rushes are in this map. The zerg has to block so much space to not let terran build an insta win construction site. + Show Spoiler [example] + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/vmJIy.jpg) Also it is silly how open the cliffs above natural are, but still are unpathable. | ||

(already imagining a 1-1-1 with mules to open up a backdoor entrence )If scouted at all that attack will always be worse than a frontal 1-1-1 so i sincerely don't see the problem. it's a normal 1-1-1 up a 1x ramp, which you can do at the front as well but here there are minerals blocking so you need to spend mules on that instead of getting $$$. The only case where you don't have to go up the 1x ramp at the front is when there's already an expo there which makes this alternate path even worse. Only thing i could see this getting muled for (or just opened at all by an offensive terran) is for sneaky hellion runbys very specific cheese and perhaps some sneaky bio "pokes" (but not really). tldr: If scouted i don't see the problem with this sort of backdoor. Just like in bw it can open up for some specific shenanigans but i almost entirely relies on not getting scouted and usually just serves as a later game shortcut/path for the defender. | ||
