The map really looks crappy in the picture, please open in editor and take a look before commenting. Thank you!

1. Do I know what I am talking about?
-If you have no idea how to make a balanced melee yourself, you really don't have much business trying to tell someone else how to do it. Rather than give bad advice that will only hurt, it's better to be silent and let someone else do the job. If you aren't sure, say so, not everyone's an expert, but if you aren't, do not claim to be.


2. Can the map be improved?
-There are very off chances where a map has been made with a lot of time and care, and is totally fine. There are also times where a map's concept is so bad, or completely lacks a concept, where there is nothing that can be done with it. It is in those cases that you get simple comments of what's wrong with the map, and no details on improvement, because it isn't worth the effort. Some maps can be saved, some can't, and some don't need it at all.


3. Is my comment clear?
-It is always a good idea to make your comment in a clear and understandable manner. Using proper punctuation and grammar should help immensely. Unreadable advice isn't all that helpful.

4. IS MY COMMENT CONSTRUCTIVE AND POSITIVE?
I'm sick of seeing flaming and trolling based on the quality of someone's map. If you haven't got anything nice to say, don't say it at all.

192x192 is way too big...not to mention it's an assymetrical 2 player map.

192X192 is too large for a 2v2.

Also, the lack of symmetry will cause imbalance in some matchups...



None.

Terran rape. Tankable expoes, narrow passages, if they turtled, they could still keep 3-4 expoes.

Hint: Symmetry is not absolutely needed for balance, but it sure helps it a lot.

Oh. My. God.

Listen, you're doing worse. Not better.

Symmetry. No dimension over 128. No more than two players.

Stick to the above until you know what you are doing or you will never improve. Do you understand me?

NEVER use bridges like that, and never make so many thin little paths. This map is so imba that it makes blizzards default maps look balanced.

Relatively ancient and inactive

One thing I'll say, I'd love to be the Terran base in the bridge area.

What I think you're doing Lord Malvanis, is that you're simply confusing UMS with Melee. It doesn't work. Until you can gain a better idea on how melee works (by actually playing and learning and feeling real mechanics of it) you should simply drop it.
