DemolitionSquid's First Map

Looking sweet. Middle feels cramped, though. Watchtower, 2 golds and 2 ramps... I think it would work much better if you just had the watchtower like it is and moved the gold minerals to replace the far expansions.

Are you talking about Crabulous or Dominion?

Dominion. I missed the latest update to it, so I was referring to old version. I like the changes, especially the watchtowers.

I still think the gold minerals in the middle make it too cluttered. Its looks to me like the backbone of movement in the map. Should be treated more like an arena/battle area than an expansion imo.

Crabulous looking promising. Reminds me a little of Booty Bay from War3. Looking a little bare and maybe too spacious, but a bit hard to tell unless I had a look at it in the editor or the game. :)

While dominion looks great, I think there is a serious problem with the gold minerals. The first reason why is that only one player can hold any one of the two expansions because they are so close together. The second reason is that the expansion is in the direct and only route to the opponent, so there is no reason not to dig in. What I propose instead is that you scrap the gold minerals and put a Xel'naga watch tower in the middle, and put the gold minerals in the SW/NE corners instead. This way the tower will be key to the map but the gold minerals will be more viable.

Also, updated Crabulous. Made the ramps closer to increase rush distance.
