I think all the changes are ok besides the choke thing.. why would you want it wider?

I liked the narrow choke, it was what made Ash Rose Ash Rose. Now it's something else :p

good changes, except I don't know why you made the choke wider (not saying it's bad)

is it to make it harder to camp with your main + nat?

Agreed, that was the main reason I hated/barely ever played that map -_-.

Actually you can still hit half the minerals with lurks, but I can change that too .

I changed the choke because of http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=28146

Because testie could defend so easily?

Ok I get it, you don't like testie?

anyways, I don't think you should've changed it.

It's still fairly easy too defend anyways.. it's not like "oh shit its a bit wider now let me run straight into all those cannons with my hydras"

A map is a map, if you fuck too much with it it's not the same map anymore! Changing a few things like adding doodads and such are ok.. but the width of that entrance is important, and therefore I think it would be wrong to change it. Just my opinion :p

Do you really think that bill having done tons of maps, would only change a map because he "loves" or "hates" (over the internet btw) someone?

Excellent changes IMHO. Unlike others I LOVE the widening of the choke. This didn't make the map loss any of it's personality, it just made breaking out of contains far more resonable. And the slight nerfing of lurk cliffing is good too. Don't treat this as a big change people. The lurks still hit so it doesn't eliminate the tactic.

For god sakes, you still can't build any cannons at the gas nat up the ramp, so he isn't making it THAT P friendly...Do you want PvZ to be impossible? I don't see any good reasons to keep it so tiny.

Nice changes.

Bill, what program do you use to decorate? In all of your maps you are superb at it.

o_O You don't need any special program to decorate. Ash Rose could have easily been made in regular Staredit.

I know that, (I only use staredit) but I was wondering if he used something else as well (like for the broken cliffs). I realize that you don't need anything else.
