The creep camps seem like a newly formed alliance, I find them nice even if some seem unlikely. But, well done. 4/5

I do agree with the examples below, but not really with the ones you mentioned on my map.

What listed in bad examples are a combination of creeps that just do not fit each other in themselves. They just look very weird even at a glance. For example, a sasquatch lives in a deep forest while a murloc dwells in shallow water. Same thing goes for an inferno, a wrath and an ice troll. They're simply from different tilesets. As for lv6 rock golem, lv6 trapper and lv7 bandit lord, no one places a bunch of different types of high level creeps like that and thus I understand them being listed as 'bad'.

But what's with a golem and an ogre? They're both from Lorderon and they both live in similar environments.
Mixing two different types of creeps is an extremely normal phenomenon and no one has ever pointed that out. That's why I asked you if they historically had bad relationships. Cuz if they do, it would not be a good idea to place enemies with each other but otherwise I do not really agree.

  • I loved the terrain, everything about it.
  • Bases are far from each other, you can easily prepare.
  • Space for the base and expansions are sufficient enough to build an army.
  • Lumber and Gold is generously given.
  • Surprise, there's nothing I disliked.
  • You should add something more to the Map Description than just an e-mail. Like how did it get called Purity.
  • Turning the Goblin Merchants into Fountains of Health and Mana since the Marketplace is a bit better.
  • Some creeps drop two items at once, and I've even seen the same items drop from the same creep group.

The creep camps seem like a newly formed alliance, I find them nice even if some seem unlikely.
But, well done. 4/5

I appreciate your review and suggestion! Can you elaborate your suggestion on the creep camps?
You got the same opinion with Abovegame? Which creep camps in particular did you find unlikely?

I will add specific details on the map description and consider some changes in items!
As for Merchants I will leave it as it is as I prefer maps that retain melee characteristics.

- Enough space for bases
- More than enough resources
- Interesting choice of creep combination
- Enjoyable

NEGATIVES
- Sorry, couldn't think of anything negative about this map

Why sorry? I thank you for having no complaints HAHA!



Item drops are fine

But the treeline seems still a bit thin on neutral buildings/creep camps


You mean tree walls at the center area?
And congrats on your contest!!

Love the tileset, aesthetics are very good, and map layout is great. The only thing is... I feel like this is a remake of a blizz map I've seen before! Love the name, the Marketplace is a nice idea. We'll have to see how it plays! :)
