After playing on Polaris for two rounds, I really really want it to win. Could probably fiddle with the timing and location of the lava. But it's a very neat concept that deserves more exposure.

Yes, the layout is extremely similar to Ride of the Valkiries, Nony PM Plexa about the maps, he's the one that can fix them now.

I based Blitzkrieg around Blitz X (heheh, get it?) and RoV. Blitz X because of the obvious small unit entrance and RoV with the ramps and levelled high ground. Both maps encouraged players to move up the map in different ways (up as in away from their mains) and I used both ideas in conjunction here.

Also Plexa, could you add unbuildable debris on the main ramps for Blitzkrieg?

feedback for graveside: blink stalkers were getting stuck in random places in the middle of the map.

I just spotted something that looked like that on stream. Little low ground bits? If it's the same thing I saw, it might be intended. It looks like it might be there for reapers, drop, blink.

The map's a little weird cause there are some little places where there aren't any doodads and I'm not sure if they're pathable or not or if they're supposed to be.

I like Graveside and Shrieking Breeze (of the finalists; haven't seen the other submissions).

Delighted that Jungle Valley is in. Actually for two reasons, a selfish thing I guess and one good.

Finalist in three TLMCs! Yeah! although Never with a really consevative Design - i guess we have to believe that progressive Design really has Potential and now more than Ever before: a wide Audience sees this as a Necessity.

Besides this Ego Thing i am very Happy that we finally will See a semi Island Map in competitive play that theoretically grants Four bases for Free while at the Same Time Leaves you in the dark if your two Potential Thirds are going to be Harassed strongly the very next Second.

I realize that the Map's Concept is Not that Easy to read in the overview but please Check it Out. It is pretty awesome XD

Unfortunately I missed that part of your game. Do you mean the low-ground areas connecting the mid-ground areas between the mains? If its what I am thinking they were intentionally left pathable for reapers.

So far I've seen all maps but polaris rhapsody being played, the only one I really approve of is jungle valley, though It may need to be made cross due to the power of positional imbalance.
