The center part of Return of the King reminds me of Baekmagoji's center.
This could be one of those maps where terran whores up the center and protoss deploys carrier plays over the center edges. Maybe even sneaking arbiters over the thin, partly non-buildable edges of the center high ground.

At first glimpse, the map looks really hard for a zerg to maneuver ground forces around in ZvT.


Plasma looks too weird to comment atm! ^^
Huge fan of JulyZerg, HonestTea and that guy Kim Taek Yong.

People in [gm] telling me Plasma is being discussed right now in OGN.


Lot of people get their first 4 workers and get rid of the minerals you use to scout. Even witht he early neglect for economy, you can still be even with someone who is going quick drop. Too imbalanced; especially TvZ...

lol look who's back


hihi =D

Glad I can be back! Have to get back in the grove > _ <



Edit: Plasma is like the Gorky for Zerg(Muta / Guardian) and Protoss(Carrier). This toss player had 3 carriers by the time I broke through the egg lines. I was bottom left he was top left.

Plasma looks awesome. I'm betting that people will be screaming imba at one matchup during the start of the season, then screaming imba for a completely different one as the map is slowly figured out.

If nothing else, it will be different and force people to think.

btw, the lowground mineral blocks have 32 minerals for anyone who can't be bothered to open the map.

Blue has such a different mineral formation, I wonder if it mines slower or faster than the other two?

I'd like to see boxer's base move to one of the middle expos :D

You can't drone drill the eggs out of the way can you?

The harvest mineral scouting will also allow cheese to occur with terrans and protoss, i'm sure people will mine out the scouting mineral patch out as soon as possible to prevent this.

It takes 4 trips to completely mine out those mineral patches and they are rather far away so i don't think anyone will do it fast enough to stop cheese.

Groundbreak (somewhat) news: Return of the king has semi unbalanced gas positions. While playing the top right, my terran scv was building a refinery, and managed to pop out on the island after completion. Thankfully, I have been unable to replicate it again thus far. Top left looks like it should work too.

wow lol, guess they didn't test the maps as much as I thought they would.
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.
