I'll be the first to admit that I thought the starting locations were in the top left and bottom right high ground and got really confused. ^^

Me too. I was thinking "this map is garbage, how do you ever expand in PvZ ?"

As it is the map looks interesting, especially the not so much exposed gold. It's hard to say anything relevant on it before playing it. I'll try and play some games on it with my practice partner tomorrow (PvZ). I'll let you know how it goes ^^

I think each race takes a different third here

Making the 6m bases normal gas yield is a good choice imo

I think the changes you made to the northwest/southeast corners broke the concept of the original map. Which is too bad because I like the original.

It's a cool adaptation. I agree that the map concept changes when you remove the corner pathways, but I see that as a necessary change to adapt to SC2. Maybe you could keep them somehow with rocks if you brought those bases down to middle elevation.

I'm really trying to identify what strategy would be horribly broken here, but it looks like the map is quite well thought through despite being very experimental. Maybe blink PvT.
I guess the choice of using smaller bases really makes this much easier to balance.

No, those changes are not necessary adaptations to SC2. By adding shortcuts through the map it closes the map and makes it even more narrow and constricted and removes alot of choices the original concept gives when it comes to army movement. Unless ofcourse if you're talking about strengthening SC2 allins.

If it's blocked by rocks I see it working just fine in SC2. I referred to how If it's open from the start, as in BW, that isn't feasible in SC2. Although, it actually looks like there are some little blockers on the backdoor ramp in the BW version? I'm not clear on what those dark spots might be. If there were rocks there I would see it being totally workable.

It's blocked by neutral DTs in the BW version, this allows workers to mineral walk through to take the backdoor expansion but blocks all other ground units.

You're missing the point. The issue is not if that ramp has rocks on it or not, it's the location of it. Rocks doesn't help it outside the the early early game. How you design the actual backdoor is another matter.

Map looks super cool.
Air distance is quite close, but you can adapt.

Personally I'm not a fan of the main-looking bases in the top left and bottom right, especially because of the space they take up and the small ramp. But I can see how it works better in Sc2 this way than the BW version would. Still love the middle and main layout though. Better map than I could ever make.
