Hey Facepunch, I've been working on this map for a few months, long before the recent arrival of the workshop tools. Now that they're finally out, I can release it to the world. It's been playtested and iterated on for many versions, so I think it should be pretty balanced at this point.
The map is called Threevy and it's meant to be the ideal 3v3 dota experience. It's a 2 laned map with jungles in the middle on both sides, seperated by the river. The top lane is meant to be similar to mid from the default dota map, while bottom is more like a side lane. It's also symmetrical, fixing what I consider to be a major imbalance in default dota.
One thing to note: In past versions I slightly altered some values like neutral creep xp and tower hp for balance. I raised tower HP so pushing heroes wouldn't be super powerful, as well as nerfed jungle xp so junglers wouldn't be OP. I also made it so creep always drop the same amount of gold, I just don't see the point to creep dropping a range of gold in default dota; it just adds chaos. I haven't been able to get those alterations working in the new sdk. So, for now, creep and towers will be at their default settings. I will update it as soon as I figure out how to fix that.
I also want to add support for a custom version of captains mode meant for 3v3 so it can be as competitive as possible. I'll add that as soon as it's ready.

Looks awesome, do you happen to have a top overview of the map though?

I see they're in the workshop, might be useful to post it here too.
