That's an ice name you've got there. Not seeing how it's zerg favored though?


Hmm yea I may have missed the mark on making it zerg favored - I was trying to keep it more balanced than outright zerg favored. There's a lot of blink surface area and come good places to fly a command center. I did try to keep the pathways nice and open, make it possible to grab a quick 7/8th gas, and if we're into LotV, there are what I think to be some nice spots for lurkers to be effective.

I actually wanted to make something like you ended up doing, but I couldn't keep the idea of the geysers as a third if I decided to do so, so I scrapped the idea and went the other direction, I still wanted to add a couple more ramps on the corner bases, but these weren't working so well, and I still wanted to have a small mineral line wall somewhere, so I removed the highground and left it as a normal ish base.

100% my thoughts. These highground/lowground, big choke designs are always so good for ZvZ.

Please make this into a real map!

You can find the map by searching with the KTT tag (I upload maps that I'm testing with that tag), I uploaded the map to EU & AM servers, atm I have concerns regarding the relation of the rocks blocking the entrance to the Third compared to the Collapsible Rocks HP in MU's where one player holds map control over the other for too long, and it may lead to players being basically unable to take the Third base because the high yield geysers were already taken down by the other player, but that can only really be handled by real world testing.

So if you play on the map, I would appreciate if you were to throw me a bone over here and tell me what do you think of the collapsible tower HP.

Mostly I like the structure. The isthmus in the center is pathable right? The silly parts can stay or go. I'd say that concept should probably be a mandatory feature on a 3rd base, not an optional 3rd optional feature, but either way I like it. The layout could stand on its own though (with some tweaks).

I'll try and get somes games

The corner base's ramps are blocked by neutral eggs.

"bitty dot syndrome" is the name barrin gave to the idea that very small obstacles on a map (aka "bitty dots") have very little effect on reducing the map's functional openness. this map is covered in a grid of ramps, but since the unpathable spaces between the ramps are so tiny, flanking is effortless and the entire map might as well be open, hence z favored. also the natural ramp's gigantic (daedalus size), although here you can still do a nexus wall.

speaking of ramps, there are 56 of them to be exact, ganymede can suck it, algue yours doesn't count and you hate ramps anyway.

the corner bases are "islands" in that they are blocked by ground by neutral zerg eggs, however this means you can mineral walk workers through the eggs to build a base and maynard workers once it's finished. the tiny back ramp is there so you can easily run your workers to your 3rd in the event of a drop or an attack at the other ramp.

map concept is iezaeled from geometry, tileset/theme are iezaeled from hyperlink (sort of).



Wow nagative this map is really fantastic
