Not even the dong has that kind of macro actually it wouldnt be THAT hard for a pro if they do a 2hatch build all-in sorta build or something. actually I'd say JD even has a good chance of playing a drawn-out game vs a much weaker player doing this, usually pros intentionally save up larva instead of not having the macro for it. | ||

With 16 handicaps there are like, and I'm no math genius here, 16^7 possible combinations and I'm not gonna program each combination onto 8 maps, the last of which won't even be known until just before the event. I'm not saying it would be easy, but it's not an unreasonable amount of work to program a map with an "referee" player slot who is able to turn the handicaps on or off by moving a unit on or off a beacon. That way you'd only have to program one map, not every possible combination (which is 2^16). It would probably still be more work to make and to test than anyone would be willing to do for this, though. Doing it for 8 different maps would be pretty unreasonable though. | ||

I'd say that's pretty reasonable what Gustav's talking about. Of course this is not a necessity for the first TL Arena. But it would form a good foundation for an orderly event. Anyway, I am not experienced with map editors other than Blizzard's one. Would it be possible to either copy the triggers from one map to another with a certain editor, or copy the terrain to a map with fully functioning triggers? This would reduce the amount of work to primarily a single working map with triggers, one set for each handicap. | ||

Not only is the UMS concept pretty unfeasible in terms of sheer workload, some of those restrictions can't even be incorporated into triggers. | ||
