This looks like a good map for HotS, the bridges can be controlled by widow mines. The way it's set up though it seems kinda asymmetrical, you should rotate the entrance of the bottom base. | ||

People said this kind of layout is not necesarily good in sc2, although it was good in sc1 (they were reliable people). Well, I'm a really sad puppy  | ||

Zerg will always take their fourth first, and if the Terran or Protoss just expands in the same direction the rush distances are so short that they can cripple the zerg's new expand while easily defending their own. Yeah, I was gonna comment on this too. It seems that zergs always get shafted in this style of symmetry, because it's very hard to make a map like this where you can expand away from your opponent. The opponent can always just expand the same way and shrink the rush distance to essentially zero. | ||

They can easily take one on both sides and then abandon one if it gets in trouble or just start a hatch on the fourth they did't take the moment they see toss/terra trying to expand towards them. I agree, I think it will work a bit like cloud kingdom in that way. It would be a problem if it was the 3rd but its not too bad for the 4th. Incidentally Nullcurrent already did a remake of odd eye but didn't release it. | ||

Terran PFs are going to be super strong at those bottom left corner bases, especially the corner. otherwise, this map looks amazing. very well put together! | ||

Sort of a standard treatment but it still looks quite good. I'd like it better if there was smaller (or no) lowground grass path that loops around the tower below the SW highground pods. | ||

Cool map, although I think the excess/spread of all those protoss decals is kind of distracting and isn't pretty. Maybe that's just me though. | ||

About the map: I love the creative way that it has "circle syndrome" but you choose which way and then each player gets a cluster of 3 bases. The top right are all lowground with fewer entrances and the bottom left are highground with more entrances in general. I can't wait to see how it plays out! To comment on the discussion earlier, I don't think that Zerg will have too hard of a time taking the fourth. It would be nearly impossible for T/P to take the fourth near the zerg at that point because the distance would be too close that the game would end before the base could be held. | ||

Ideally though Timetwister will be joining me at 3pm PST on twitch.tv/ignproleague to talk about this map and map-making in general! Cross your fingers! | ||

The rest of the map is fine. I like the circle thingies . Looks like south from the natural there's a potential 4th or 5th base, on a high ground, seems interesting from Terran to make slow pushes on it towards Zerg's natural, just like Ohana LE (but not into the third). I like the paths that Terran can take to drop into the main base (there are 2 paths, unlike some bad maps that only have 1 or even non) and/or into the natural and third. Really neat placement. | ||

1. Replace that dark-cyan line divider between gross and grey textures with something different. Something like this (photoshoped): ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/qFZD3tX.jpg) 2. Remove cyan protoss decals and add more neon and sci-fi elements as doodads and decorations around grey zones 3. Make gross texture more smooth and probably A BIT brighter. Right now there is a problem, which is similar to Yeonsu first textures, which were very sharp and hard for eyes. . 4. Add glowing cyan walls to the main and all grey bases too. | ||
