don't like the gold expansions, just remove them and modify the highground to be used to attack the outer expansions and then add a normal base.

those mineral formations are kinda strange. I think the mains probably needs to be a little bigger as well. I'm not really someone who likes big mains, but these are too small. I like the theme though.

3rd's are a bit far no? Also the gold bases seems quite easy to take, you should add a cliff behind them or something if you want to keep them as gold. Another thing, although its personal, I think the map needs a bit more bases fro such a size, 1 or 2 more bases per player would do good.

The theme is awesome though, and it looks simply fabulous, really well done about it.

You'll need to increase the main size. And also, it is not completely symmetrical - look at those unpathable spots outside the nat. The map size is also really big. Other than that, it looks pretty good. I like the aesthetics.

Pretty far distance from nat to third, and the map in general is reeeally big for a 2p as well. Still some reasonably interesting stuff going on and the aesthetics are pretty sick especially considering it's your first map.

I think if the main was slightly bigger and everything except the nat was shrunk down to ~80% of the current size, it would probably improve the map a good bit.

The general terrain and map proportions could use some work IMO (way too big for a 2-spawn map), but MAN those are some slick aesthetics. So beautifully done.

Ok , thank you all for your feedback ! Especially ScorpSC , who created my favourite map Atlas !
So , I fixed Main size , some copy\paste bug and the minerals patches. Tomorrow I'll try to remake the Gold bases

Thx again guys ! You are fantastic.

Great aesthetic work, I love the texturing especially. The main and natural are shaped in a way thats pretty neat to look at, while still offering enough space for buildings, defensive postures, and even sneaky drop play. Not sure if I really like the placement of the third, but the gold bases are the real gem of bases on this map; positioned very well and look awesome!

Ok so , just updated the map.

Remaked the entire Gold Base , making it more harassable and open. Also , changed them to normal base.

That's pretty fine, if you look at where the ramp to the second goes down and the fact there's a choke the other end of the third, you can defend it from just that middle area.
