Some extra space behind the mineral line
Each side of the main base can be walled-off with 2 buildings
There's a reaper gate main to connector.

Natural Exp+ Show Spoiler +

Natural choke reachable with hatch creep
Hatch creep covers all of the natural area
Path clipped for easier walling

Connector+ Show Spoiler +

Tanks on the high ground can easily control the natural choke, the bridge (from high ground expand to connector) and half of connector area.
The fastest path is wallable by a collapisable rock making the auto-path through the corner base.
Stronger attack path is through the ramp to the low ground expand

Overall concept is good but there are obvious problems, like the mains are too small (I'm guessing you play zerg).

Actually, the mains are quite big. AND, although I've tweaked the map to fit zerg (E.G: main base closer to ramp leaving a small blind spot, natural being close enough to connector choke so hatch creep can reach it ) no I don't play Zerg.

I think you're improving but a few things:

- the main is just really strange to me and looks very siegeable by tanks and easy to drop. Yes the main is big but a lot of that space is behind your mineral line. I also don't know why you'd put buildings behind your mineral line. It's going be super easy for a terran to doom drop a crap ton stuff out of medivacs and gg especially when the mineral line is going to restrict movement and make it harder to respond to it if your production is way further back in your main I mean sure ranged libs aren't going to be an issue but it's overkill.

- It's standard for rich mineral lines to have 6 patches and 1 gas, not 8 patches and 2 gases. plus it doesn't seem that risky to grab so it'd probably be better off as a normal base.

- 58 seconds is pushing it in terms of rush distance especially if you compare it to tlmc guidelines
