Cool Map, I would remove the little 1x1 cliff near the third-natural area. Would make is psychologically better for engagements I think.

Very pretty map, but it feels a bit too big than what it should be. In the main I suggest you retract the cliffs a bit, so there is less room in the main, as well as make blinking into the main impossible, although it's not a big issue. The nat is very interesting, but it has some problems. You can't FFE as the cannon cannot reach both sides of the wall. Now, not being able to FFE would not be a problem if Photon Overcharge could reach the wall, but it barely can't. You need either Photon Overcharge or cannons in order to defend speed ling all ins, so unless you want to force Protoss players to play more defensive than normal, I suggest you make the chokes slightly closer to the natural main building, so the Photon Overcharge could reach.

I really like the design of the 3/9 base, but it's not going to be taken because it's just too far. The 3rd is pretty cool, mostly standard, but with a back door to an interesting base, but it's just too far from the nat to be taken safely, and too big to properly defend without a large army.

You've spread your bases way too thin for the size of the map. I suggest making the main, nat and 3rd smaller, and adding at least 1 extra base for each player.

splitty map but its a very cleverly designed split. drops will be key on this map. i like the idea of backdooring their 3rd base even though they need to expand to that 4th. makes taking the 4th a bit tricky.

Agreed very solid map. Also quite pretty. +1 for natural entrance with collapsible rocks

Looks pretty sick. I can see games shift from from one side of the split to the other, once a game drags on long enough. And given it only has 10 bases, I think that could definitely come into play. I like.
