So I've been working for a long time on this Warcraft 3 custom map that many are calling a Starcraft 2 clone. Yes it was inspired by Starcraft 2 but calling it a clone feels terrible. I figured that if I want to popularize it I should run a tournament (hopefully multiple tourneys) where everyone can join and since its new and fresh it's the perfect time to see if it has potential and if people like it.
About the map: The map is called Battlecraft, but it's nothing like the SC2 one. It has 3 races - a Naga (Tideran) race, a Gnoll (Gnollros) race and a Insect (Necsit) race. It's a dynamic RTS style map which is closer to Starcraft than Warcraft. It's been in the works for quite some time now and me and my friends have been desperately trying to balance every little bit of it. It's still in a raw version if you must but before the tourney it should be in a playable and enjoyable version.
About the tournament: My goal is to spread this map amongst more RTS oriented players and thats why I'm posting this on TeamLiquid.net, the Hive and a lot of other sites. The Prize pool isnt that awesome but it's money I'm giving out of my pocket (I'm 16) in order to try and entertain people. The tourney will take place around the 25 Sept. if I get somekind of positive feedback.
Things to keep in mind: For now there is only 1 playable map* if you can call it that where you can duke it out in a 1v1 or a 2v2 but there are 3 more maps almost ready so I will upload them ASAP. Also, feel free to leave negative feedback - I'm not made out of paper and I can take harsh criticism.

And yes - if the tournament does happen this thread will become colourful and epic as hell!
*every "map" will use the same units and buildings but different terrain
