Initially I had gas nodes in the min only naturals, but I decided to take them out. But was that a good decision?

phff. I dislike 2v2.. Especially when Im teamed with valug and he gets 6 pooled as toss.
On this map, it would be hard to play 2v2, big lack of gas/mins.

I think its cool, if you put a gas back in the nat, terran can block and take it kinda easily, on the other hand, zerg will have an easier time. So if you add a gas at the nat, take it from the other expo, then open up the nat so it cant be taken so easily. But, I think its cool how it is. It looks like a fun basic map. Well done too.

Ic, oh and btw, this map isn't really meant for 2v2. It's mainly for 1v1.

6 pool.....I'll ignore that. I could write a whole article about how rushes don't work anymore, but nevermind.

The map, I believe, should have gas at a natural...or it seems to sorta favor toss.

T needs more gas for good factory/tank building, Z needs gas for almost everything worthwhile (muta/ling, lurker/ling, air, etc...) (Can you tell I don't play Z much? wink.gif )

While P just needs a lil' for the occassional high templar. Goons are only 50, and when I'm toss I never run out of gas.

It would probably be more balanced for other races with gas. Other than that, nice map, easy nat/choke, good extra exp, and yes, it seems more suitable for 1v1 than 2v2. Nice one MA!

Who gets 6pooled in 2v2? A better question is who the !@$# dies to a 6 pool -_- You should be ashamed of your self.

You know as well as I do that my P is not my main race. Sorta like how your T isn't your main race. (I wanna ZvZ you someday LOL).

Usually when I have like excess gas I just start massing templar wink.gif

What's a "six pool"?

I don't know too much considering I just started into melee but I've been downloading alot of the pro maps. I think this one looks good and will be interesting to play in.

...er... a 6 pool is a noob zerg build where you get 7 drones and wait till 200 mins to make a spawning pool , then having 6 drones which is 6/9 supply.

When pool is done, spawn 6 lings and attack enemy base.

Used for quick harass/kills, etc...so many ways to NOT let it happen to you, it's less than viable...

I just dont think either of us expected it, plus our strat before hand was for him to get quick goons, and I back him up with zealots. So... Im really just teasing him.

Alright, after long debate, I figured that gas naturals would be better.

- Added gas back
- Took out middle expo
- Added new min onlies

ehh.. Now its kinda like any other old map.. Terran can turtle well. Zerg gets an easy fast expo too, but they cant harass well. I guess its fine. GJ

Yeah, it isn't bad but i don't see anything too new. I like it, but mainly for the gameplay... yawn.gif Doesn't look too special, but plays good
