So I finally finished this map. It was heavily inspired by Korhal Carnage Knockout by SidianTheBard.
The interesting part is that it basically a 1v1 map with 8 spawns. The opponent will always spawn in one of the 3 locations across the map, which means the 2 closest spawns are disabled.
This image might explain it a bit better:

Anyway, I loved this idea and thought that it could actually work really well. So I was trying to figure out how to make this concept compatible with more standard builds. I am really curious how this will play out.

There's not a really good spot to have a maxed out fight where you need to spread your units IMO.

Hmm, I think you might underestimate the proportions of the map, there's plenty of open areas as well.

if you want to ffa this map, you're going to have a bad time. it will degenerate into a massive "who can 6 pool their neighbor".

This would make for a good 2v2 map as well! Great execution of this concept.

The maps looks small because the main base is so spacious, but its actually big.
Super safe natural with a backdoor on the main can produce some crazy games.
Early push to break the enemy debree and lock him in the main base. XD
Bridges.
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

Blink City sounds like a great name for a F-Zero Racetrack
