You can't hold the ramp against cheese because the defenders won't be able to shoot up while the attackers can shoot down.

Well, players will need to take that into account when picking builds and such. Might still end up being deemed broken, but can't we give it some time?

On this map I can see proxy pylon+forge+pylon wall being an incredibly effective pvz strategy

Maybe unbuildable rocks at the top of the ramp for version 1.1? I feel like that would be an easy fix.

Yeah, I think it would probably be good to do this.

But then, what about blocks on the bottom? Is that an issue? And you can't really do it on the bottom and the top since then the defender won't be able to wall off at all, either.

Can you not wall off the bottom the same way you do the top? I'm zerg so I don't actually know
Edit: I realize that there's no point to walling off the bottom anyway, so maybe debris at the ramp top is a bad idea.

You can 3 pylon wall at the top as well, this is still popssible with neutral platse and depots, the point is surface area is greater in that case.

WAlling off the bottom is not usefull at all. IF u 6 pool, i would have to scan to kill ur lings. i would have no vission.

The low ground main here is just dumb since it serves no purpose expect making stupid cheeses work and limiting solid openers.

Other than that I like it really well. I do think that those little ramps by the 3rd should be 2x instead of 1x because that just hurts the defender from dealing with harass of the third base by choking things up too much there.

They'll be in vision by the time they're close enough to attack anything, since they're melee units.

Agreed. I think plexa is onto something tho about the forge wall. I think the meta would be pretty tricky here for zerg b/c protoss can just threaten a wall and zerg has to early pool, meanwhile it could be a fake and protoss is nexus firsting or some such.

Oh man the Aiur temple pods look so fucking sweet. Adds that bit of BW "wasteland metal" flavor.

I think with the main being so big, it doesnt matter if its low ground or not (in terms of sieging it).`

Really great map! I do think that the name could use a bit of work though =/

It's not there, but here's a guide I found on how to change your editor's region.

Also, you may not want to do this, but you could put the map file up for download and I'd happily upload to NA for you, giving all credit to you of course.

I just assumed this had unbuildable plates. Of course it needs those just like any map (at the top in this case).

Lol, why do that when Blizzard added official support for region changing?
Just select the region in Preferences.

Wow! This map seems awesome! Loving the lowground main.
I usually look at maps when I'm at work, and then forget about the maps once I'm home. Hopefully I'll remember this time around
