I'm a bit puzzled that Port Aleksander is standard and Defender's Resort is macro rather than the other way around in truth.

I will submit following three maps soon, if I they don't have any major issues. I'm creating threads under custom maps for each of them for feedback. (Currently being delay by restrictions...) All maps have been published on EU and AM servers.
I also have an idea for fourth map, but I haven't started making it yet.

Fennec's Depot may be a rush map also.

Macro: Pooki Station
[image loading]
Size: 152x156
Rush Distance: 43s

Standard: Fennec's Depot
[image loading]
Size: 144x150
Rush Distance: 38s

Rush: Korouoma

Size: 148x148
Rush Distance: 35s

Based on the guidelines Port is closer to standard and Defender's is Macro. I havnt submitted yet since I am still making sure I have looked for any bugs and last minute polish so maybe I'll switch them.

I'd have sworn that Port had the longer rush distance. What are the dimensions and rush distances?

Going back and looking both Port and Defender's Resort have pretty long rush distances main to main both about 50 to 55 seconds, and the bounds for Port is 158x140. While Defender's Resort bounds are 144x152 along with having more bases on the map is why my initial thoughts were Port be in standard.

Hmm yeah that makes sense. They're probably both Macro maps, but you can only submit two to each category so calling Port standard isn't too far off.

I thought those star decals were part of the map and got excited for a unique use of shapes ....

if possible you should try to resubmit this into the "standard" category, the bases seem a little too hard to take for a pure macro map - especially with the large backdoor to the nat.

After playing Twilight Divide a bunch, it needed to be a bit smaller. Here's the final version:

Asphodel

[image loading]
Dimensions:148x148
Rush distances:
42 seconds for Top Right/Bottom Left spawns
39 seconds for Top Left/Bottom Right spawns


I'll probably submit it in the standard category. Despite it being pretty big and having lots of bases the rush distances and how it plays out makes it more standard than macro.

On Asphodel can massive units fit between the minerals and xel'naga towers?

Yup. All the units fit. It's two squares wide on each side. (side note: thors and siege tanks are the units that can't go through small gaps. Even ultras can squeeze through holes that tanks can't).

Perhaps, I was torn between the two, I put it in macro based on the size constraints. Is there someone in the know that could give some direction?

I think Asphodel is an incredibly creative map in its execution - basically, it looks like two maps in one since the base layouts are different depending on the spawns you get(which are, thankfully, just cross spawns). That alone makes the map really appealing to me, though it depends to see how it looks in action to see if it works out well.
