Now onto the important stuff, I don't see why people keep making these "close inbase nat + close third" setups. Ever since Calm Before the Storm we've seen that the negative gameplay effects arn't worth it. If the inbase nat and/or third was a bit futher away it would make more sense. Also, I've seen people using bases with the mineral line facing the opponent alot lately. What you have to realize is that this is great for everyone except ZvT, giving Z a disadvantage. Maybe if the map in general was ZvT favored it could balance it, but this is not. I think this map would reinforce the current state of balance with Z underperforming. | ||

I really like the fourth with the high ground vulnerability. The overall aesthetic seems a bit... boring, but I don't mind it | ||

But it"s a very cool map though. I don't like the Terran theme much because there are a lot of maps lately with that theme, but the texturing/doodading itself is fine. | ||

Edit: Ion is a great example of a map with an in-base nat that avoids this problem. | ||

Side thought - This map looks solid and I look forward to seeing it in proleague, if that is to be its destiny, but it's funny ... we see maps of similar quality all the time on TL (KTV, Yeoul, etc) and I'm wondering where the opportunities are for those maps. We don't even have a regional NA tournament to pick up our bad foreign-made maps anymore... | ||

It's also completely linear and you don't have any choice in what expansion you take. Zerg "might" take the open base as their nat, but honestly that's not worth it. It'll most likely be the same games over and over again. | ||

Too many people just think "it's jacky, perfect map!" It also looks better because you Photoshopped the aesthetic pictures to include a field of depth. (depth of field? w/e) It's also completely linear and you don't have any choice in what expansion you take. Zerg "might" take the open base as their nat, but honestly that's not worth it. It'll most likely be the same games over and over again. You're being harsh on the aesthetics. I played the map and it doesn't look bad at all. I agree the map is very linear though. Maybe a bridge with a rock between the natural and the base just above could make the map more interesting. | ||

1. Many people point out about map design. I like simple so not favor fancy. Don't worry. If this map is in Ladder Pool, I design more. (Sorry for who expect my design) 2. Its concept is 'tug of war' map. Player gets inbase nat, third and occupies to employ many army based on abundant resources to win enemy. So, I choosed linear expantion style. if I design non-linear expantion style to give choice, maybe players confuse what is more important : occupy forward plateau or where expo is important. I judged to better purpose. (Not bad to design non-linear expo) Zerg is somehow unfavorable, then change playing style. Most of people thought zerg is unfavorable in Planet S, it isn't. Of course, I may miss my tip. Then, modify map or refer to next map. 3. Lastly, I respect designer's works. Your works are excellent, My works are excellent. Respect others works. -__- Thinks.
