(4) Celtic Cross
OMG, that's an amazing name! It even has the ring around the entire cross!
"Celtic Cross" captures the essence of the map better than "The Ring"!

It's interesting how the symmetry works in this map. The mains are rotationally symmetrical, but the central parts additionally also have full x- and y-symmetry. | ||

I think Drone or Quadcopter works too. Like the other suggestions too. Minus vote on | ||

I thought that if Terran spawns in a counter-clockwise position to their opponent, they could play like on Eclipse: Expand at the short entrance multi (leaving the path to the other side open, thus leaving their natural a bit vulnerable), and then expand to the wide entrance multi (as is customary on Eclipse). The big difference would be that it would take the enemy much longer to reach the Terran 3rd and 4th bases, but the defending Terran players could move quickly from their natural On June 26 2024 23:38 FlaShFTW wrote: TvZ means likely lots of ling attacks on the exposed 3rd. Yes, I agree that there are many paths for Zergling attacks, but I tried to make as many paths as there are on Eclipse. Do you think this will be too difficult to defend against? Eclipse was a tough map for ZvT, and completely impossible for Utrallisk based builds. I wanted to create an Ultralisk-friendly version of Eclipse. | ||

Do you think this will be too difficult to defend against? Eclipse was a tough map for ZvT, and completely impossible for Utrallisk based builds. I wanted to create an Ultralisk-friendly version of Eclipse. So my example was saying if T spawned 11 and opponent P/T spawned 1. Expanding to 10 in this position for 3rd may be a bit tricky, but I think as long as you give them enough space to build turrets/depots that it should be fine. If they can secure the 3rd and have a solid base, then expanding further shouldn't be an issue. For TvZ, using same spawns, I think it will be difficult but Terran can always pin back Zerg and look to also expand to 12 if they can secure outside of Z natural as an example. Btw, I don't mean to say that something being difficult/hard = bad map. Some races will inherently have weaknesses on a map and that's ok. | ||

In the other hand, using same spawns. If zerg spawned 11, and terran spawned 1, zerg can abuse the cliff, and hit terran buildings and marines with invisible mutas  | ||

It seems that "Nocturne" without "of shadow" is the most preferred name among all the options! ![[image loading]](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1244101149821243604/1257079965401485393/image.png?ex=66831a73&is=6681c8f3&hm=542a76b23d3ddb0d5d4a58f4b9eb4384be7443555a461f4a38c2e8d7c64bbfe2&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=666&height=283) I'd just like to know if you genuinely prefer the name 'Nocturne' over 'Nocturne of Shadow,' or if you just chose 'Nocturne' because it closely resembles 'Nocturne of Shadow' from Zelda. I also want to add that from all the suggestions in this thread, I believe 'Celtic Cross' best represents the essence of my map: ![[image loading]](https://connemaramarble.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Celtic-Cross-image-scaled.jpg) In fact, I prefer 'Celtic Cross' over 'Nocturne' or 'Nocturne of Shadow'! What do you guys think about this name? | ||
