I can't comment much from a balance side but the visuals in game are superb. I love the steps going down the ramp.
The middle is open (good for battles) and the natural is ok to defend. After that, I think the expansions are a little hard to defend (for any race) because they are so open, no choke points to wall off.
Edit: One other thing, just played this with a friend and he said the name makes it sound like it's not a normal battle map! He said it'd be better if it were called Virtual Land as it sounds more like a battle map.
There ya go!

Hm. I am also not sure whether 3rd is too hard or not. currently the ramp to the third is a 3x ramp; maybe if i reduce it to 2x it'll be easier to defend. You generally can place your army outside of your natural, since the entrance to the third is a ramp, and you can go back easily to defend.
The central base can be taken as terran to gain positional advantage and keep pushing, which is what I've been seeing recently.
Hm I like Virtual Battle, as chess is, and sc2 is. Virtual Land kinda takes the seriousness away from the map :/
People in Eu server, it's on the EU server now. Please give me more suggestions!
