What do you think about doing an immigration version of this? I feel like it's a cool concept, and immigration is nice because automatically no balance issues, whereas otherwise it's hard to prevent 1-2 of the starting positions from having a big advantage just because of map asymmetry.

Not bad.

Hello! Yes, the first version of this map was an immigration-type map. It’s already published, but I still think I can make a better
version. Coming soon =)

By the way, here are the cities on the map:

Orange Star: Fire Nation
Blue Moon: Northern Water Tribe
Green Earth: Ba Sing Se
Yellow Comet: Southern Air Temple
Black Hole: Zaofu
RedFire: Omashu
Grey Sky: Republic City
Brown Desert: Eastern Air Temple
Amber Blossom: Northern Air Temple
Jade Sun: Kyoshi Island
Cobalt Ice: Southern Water Tribe
Purple Lightning: Western Air Temple
Silver Claws: Earth Kingdom Raiders

Sounds good! I do like the actual map design of this one a lot better than the previous versions.

Yeah, the HQs are better thematically obviously but if you want my opinion I think immigration is so much better for playability
and game balance that it is worthwhile to do instead. That’s just my suggestion, though; do what you want of course.

I'm already testing a immigration version of this map. I'll send you an invitation ^^

Sounds good. Also, if you are interested, here's a standard big map / 8p FFA tier list which I've been working with for a while,
which seems pretty solid to me:

Boring T1 - Javier(*), Sasha, Von Bolt, Olaf
Spicy T1 - Grit, Sensei, Hawke, Javier, Sasha, Von Bolt, Olaf
T2 - Sturm(*), Nell, Drake, Eagle, Kindle
T3 - Andy, Max
T4 - Sami(*), Rachel, Lash, Adder, Jake, Flak
T5 - Jess(*), Grimm, Jugger, Koal, Sonja

(*) = Maybe one tier up depending on map features

And for fog. This one, I am a lot less confident about. I've messed around with it a little bit but only tested a time or two.

Fog 8p FFA tiers:

T1 - Sensei, Javier(*), Eagle, Olaf
T2 - Grit, Sturm, Nell, Sasha, Von Bolt, Drake, Kindle, Max
T3 - Andy, Sonja
T4 - Sami(*), Rachel, Lash, Adder, Jake, Flak
T5 - Grimm, Jess(*), Jugger, Koal
