It makes it noticeably easier to read the layout Him and i toke screenshots both angled and straight downwards. We actually submitted our maps with the same format, but for some reason they're using Uvantak's angled shots. | ||

I wrote in the TLMC voting thread that I was never happy with the results of those contests because I had bad memories of Biome or that retarded lava map. This is the first time since the legendary Ohana - Cloud Kingdom - Korhal Compound top 3 (Yeonsu - Ravager - Frost was actually pretty good too) that I'm really convinced the three maps of the top 3 have high potential and sustainibility in a competitive context. Congrats, congrats to Uvantak, you extraordinary mapmaker. I still make nightmares of Biome taking over Foxtrot Labs and Kamala Park in that shameful TLMC4. What a sweet revenge. I had voted for Ganymede but I'm totally happy with Echo. Congrats again, and I hope you keep on making those amazing maps. I loved Foxtrot Labs and would have traded it every day for the shitty maps Blizzard forced upon us this season. That map was beginning to be figured out and deserved more time on ladder/WCS. All those maps have what it takes to be used in a competitive map pool ; the current map pool is dreadful (the only good map is Overgrowth, and even I am beginning to get sick of it) and I would have no regret if all those maps got scrapped next season. Replace them with the top 7 of that contest ?  I know I'd be perfectly OK with it.Korhal was terrible, and I didnt really like cloud, I will admit i was extremely pleased with ohana though...all the same i have to agree with you, I can't wait to see these maps in action on ladder, the more the better | ||

 I voted for the map in 2nd place, and was torn with voting for the 3rd place map. The winning map looks impossible to take and hold a 3rd/4th base, doesn't look good for zerg players. | ||

Both the third and the fourth are vertically aligned with the main, and since 99% of T and P players will take the same expansions, the distance between the two players' bases is kept and the 3rd/4th, that might look "forward" when looking at the overview, are in fact not really "forward". | ||

Hehe yeah, and before anyone freaks out, I left him more or less alone while making his maps, i only helped him when polishing details such as pathing and some general advice about cannon rushes and such which are things i do when giving advice to any new mapmaker. I just like anyone else i'm very very surprised that his map made it, specially considering the insane levels of competition. But sadly this has come with a price, I'm now being annoyed* by my little brother about how he got his map into the TLMC while to me it took years and years of work... -.- /edit Changed molested by annoyed* No guys, my brother does not touch me on my peepee, he simply irritates and laughs at me. | ||

I mean there are a lot of paths, no way a single ball of units can adequately defend all of them (looking at you 100+ supply pure roach balls!) | ||

You wouldn't even know how to use custom textures if it wasn't for me. ;D | ||

Roaches can defend, attack, harass, base trade, be dropped, be nydused, be split in multiple groups for either attack or defense ; Roaches are the answer to every unit, even the Mutalisk. | ||
