Rufus Moderation Note What you need to do: Add a decent description. As it is now, it lacks structure, screenshots and it is messy to read. If you need information on how to create a proper description, check this out. Until a good description is provided, this maps status is set to Awaiting Update.

Review The description has information about the map, but there are missing parts, like features. And it also lacks creativity, or shall I say, it lacks sizes, colors, and so on. Another one is most of the melee maps doesn't need a loading screen, just set it to default. And also, try hiding your screenshots, it makes the description bigger, making it harder to scroll down. You might want to check this out, it helps you in making a description. Gold mines are too low, and there are only 4 gold mines, plus the 2 extra gold mines, equals 6 gold mines. You should try adding more gold mines, and try increasing its gold. If there are only 6 gold mines, then it shouldn't have 4 players, instead of 2 players. Neutrals are fine. The items it drops are balance. You might want to try compressing every Murloc camp, they're look like too far away. By the way, there are no neutral in the Tavern, you need to add some. Terrain is good, tiles are well-placed, but it lacks doodads. I can only see a igloo, and the glacier. Try adding some birds, flowers, shrub, more rocks and so on. The trees makes the base and the map smaller. There are too many trees, try reducing it. The map is too small for 4 players. If there are 2 players only, it would be fitting to the map, since there are only 6 gold mines. I suggest, you should check this and this too. This 2 links I provided will really help you in making a successful melee map. For now, voting it for awaiting update.​

Hey, I have just tested the map. It is symmetrical and it looks all right. I don't think it's too small, in my opinion the size is acceptable and playable, but most of all it's a good and fun map for hero rushing.
What I don't like about this map is the custom loading screen (it's just a normal melee map, not some RPG / Campaign, so it should be on "default"). It lacks creativity, it brings nothing new (the same snow theme we've seen in so many maps until now), the terrain is very basic (only land, some water here and there you can barely notice, no impressive doodads).

I will give you 1 reputation point because you worked for this map and I admire people who try to create new content for this game. But the map needs some improvements, that's for sure.


PS: I've noticed that the map is not even balanced. The players on the west side have acces to a Health Fountain, while the players on the east side have acces to a Mana Fountain. That means "no equal chances" for all the players and should also be fixed.

No changes were made in more than 3 months which means that no changes are inteded to be made. Acording to rules, this implies that your map will now be classified as substandard. If you wish to revert this decision you can PM a map reviewer once you have updated the map.
