other than the spawn locations and tileset, it doesn't look much like polaris to me, which makes me sad, because i loved polaris

been a while since there were neutral buildings in the map pool

IMO the 2nd expo locations seem really close to the enemy's natural :S.

I'm guessing this was intended to be terran favoured given that no terrans made it to the RO8 and only 3 made it to the RO16.

Which map will be taken out? Triathlon?

This map looks like it'll already be really good for Terrans. :S

You should have reuploaded the image instead of hotlinking it so it loads faster.

This map is kinda trippy, and NO it can't be another Polaris! D:

That was a ZvT nightmare D:

I think Zergs are gonna have trouble with expos on this map :\

I feel bad for Zerg already... Like where's the third going to be? Corner expo looks really far away and the other one right above/below your nat looks really vulnerable.

Actually reminds me of Destination in that it appears Terran-favored until you realize that Terrans would have to spread their army out over the entire map.

Pro Zergs already take a far third, plus you can just take the island for your fourth since other races can't mass drop.

I wonder if those high grounds near the island expos are droppable.

This map scares me. It'll be interesting to see how Zergs play on it though. Thanks for posting!

It looks fun, but nice turtle play TvP seems like it would be really hard to break @_@

Getting a third looks ... difficult. Ground battles will likely revolve around the two high ground pods, which will make holding either the expo's on them (3 and 8) as well as the inside expo's. The corner's are likely the safest thirds, but they're SO far away from the mains by ground. Will be interesting to see how it plays.
I cheer for underdogs and Flash

I find it funny how that every map that comes up becomes terran favored T___T

This map looks very interesting but I usually dont like this tileset. We will see!
