Two maps for your enjoyment:

Cool Factor
[image loading]

-The medium cool factor on this map is that the resource count is lower than normal. The main base has 10 patches @ 350 minerals, and 800 gas. Expansions are similarly low resource.

-The 2nd cool factor on this map is that there are 2 ramps into the main. Thats two times more than normal. Its literally doubled.

-The map doesn’t have a 3rd cool factor.

Survive and Destroy
[image loading]

The stand out property (or 'STOP' for short) of this map is that it is a 1 player map. This would make it a unique ladder map, as it is impossible to beat a human opponent on it. (You fight vs 3 insane AI).
Download Survive and Destroy from this page

By the way:
+ Show Spoiler +
Both the maps are playable. Survive and Destroy is 128x128, the picture is to not spoil the layout of the terrain. I actually made this at Christmas to introduce someone to brood war, and it is kind of intended for use with the Super Unit Mod (resource amounts are high outside of the main). Its a reasonably fun little challenge, nothing special.


So the question is...
Poll: Which should be added to Ladder?

I like cool factor but I think one of the ramps to each main needs some eggs to prevent lings from dominating each matchup.
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

I think Cool Factor will be heavily Zerg sided, as Zerg players have a much easier time to expand.

But then it would lose one of its cool factors. Can a thing be cool without having any cool factors?
Perhaps a thing can be cool on its own, and can have a cool factor in addition. So the cool factor just enhances, like max factor.

The 1 player map has plenty of money, while the 2 player map has very low money. Not sure which you want modified but feel free to do so.

EDIT: I just want to say something about this april fools. Its only a bit of fun. You cant actually infer my stance about anything map related in starcraft 2 from this thread. Please dont read into this to try and work out my position. April fools is a great opportunity for a bit of cross game banter, and it was intended to be all in good humour. gg
