I was bored and needed to practice my mutalisk micro for the chinese triangle and just ZvT in general so I made a map. The map has quite a few features actually:
- You are provided with 22 mutalisks and 15 scourge that respawn on death. There is a reason for 22 ;D - I also added an optional scouting drone in the corner of the map if you want to practice multitasking while microing. There is a switch you put your civilian on to activate/deactivate it. - There are scourges in the bottom right corner of the map for practicing the chinese triangle, or just sniping units or w/e. - There is an overlord on the left side of the map solely for stacking purposes. The overlord automatically is moved back to its original spot so there is no need for switching ovies, etc. - The map layout used was just Python. - You change choose the difficulty: (which you can change at any time) Easy - there are only 14 marines, 4 medics, 6 turrets Medium - there are 24 marines, 6 medics, 8 turrets Hard - there are 32 marines, 8 medics, 9 turrets, 2 valkyries, 1 vessel w/ irradiate - The turrets and MnM's respawn over time so you don't have to keep restarting. (the supply depots, etc don't though) - The Terran has stim AND range for the marines, as well as unlimited medic energy. - There are also 6 observer slots. - You have a dozen hatcheries which you can hotkey to macro while microing. - The Terran starts out with 2-2 upgrades so you can adjust yours however you like to simulate 0-0 mutas vs 1-0 marines, etc. Any other questions/comments/recommendations/etc just ask. I didn't put too much time into this map, but there shouldn't be any major glitches/bugs.

Unfortunately filefront is unavailable, and I don't want to use gay ass rapidshare or megaupload or anything so what I did was just save a 10 second replay of the map. I did this because when viewing a replay on repdepot it gives you the option to download the map from there. Genius, eh?

Does it take all of the UMS features when you download the map that way?
If it does that's brilliant. Also, thanks a ton for the map. I've always wanted to practice my Jaedong micro.

Make it multiplayer! like each person attacks a different base and see who can kill the fastest with least casualties? :D

1) Your map upload method is pretty ingenius. 2) Cool map, I like the 22 to practice my Jaedong micro haha.

wow ridiculous map, the best muta micro map that I've seen posted here to date. pretty impressive considering how often people ask for this kind of thing.
|
Thanks :3
I've been considering doing other ones as well. Not only zerg though, if you have a certain type in mind ask away. I've been wanting to do MnM, vulture, lurkerling, defiler play, corsair, etc.

i dunno if this is practical or not but it seems cool: can you do one where you have four dropships and you have to simoltaneously drop 4 defended zerg bases and kill the hatcheries in a time limit

Hahahahaha.
And then do the 7 ghosts + wriaths vs battlecruisers, and medics + wriaths vs carriers+obs. 
Great map (and uploading method). Now all I need to do is find the thread with the triangle explanation so I can practice that.
