Handicap
  • City in the Sky - For all buildings that can lift off, the hero must lift off the second building of that type that he makes and keep it that way for the remainder of the game.
  • Sudden death - Hero loses the game if any of his command centers are destroyed. (Maybe an exception should be made for infested command centers?)
  • Brood What? - Hero cannot make brood war units.


Brood What? is my favorite one so far, can't believe no one thought of that (that I've seen).

No brood war units or upgrades, what a great idea!

question: What race is the CPU ally? The most effective ally would be Protoss. If you get protoss I would suggest you rush with something else at the same time as the computer does with the zealots.
Unless you get unlucky and it's the 1/12th of the time that the protoss computer forge FEs LOL

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. Third time I get the time wrong. It's 22:00 CET, 16:00 EST (So that's New York etc). I should really leave this to PokeB >_>

Anyway, next batch of replies:

I'll clean up some videos in the morning so you can find it more easily

Absolutely, I'd personally would love to see that. Also as for now I don't think many maps have been suggested yet so you'd actually have a decent chance (just make sure you provide and image + dl link etc).

edit: also as I missed previous two TL arenas I would like to ask how are fodders selected?


Same as last time, everyone who enlists within the first 24 hours of the topic going up goes into a big hat (literally) and names are drawn. We had some restrictions on eligibilit last time but then like 15 people didn't show up so we dropped that. If you're lucky your name will be drawn and you get to play, else just make sure you're there at the time in case people don't show up. If you dont get a chance to play just enlist again next time

Slow Hands: Hero's APM cannot exceed 150 (use APMAlert)
Fail Placement: Hero must misplace all command centers.
Zerg Style: Whenever our hero constructs a building, he must sacrifice the SCV that built it.
Half Supply: Hero's supply cannot exceed 100.
Two Base Battlecruisers: Hero cannot construct a third command center before constructing a battlecruiser.
May your sky be always clear, may your smile be always bright, and may you be forever blessed for that moment of happiness which you gave to another lonely and grateful heart!

Someone suggested that before, but that name for it kicks ass.

Also, he has to have ALL of the handicaps? I wouldn't even give Flash very good odds against a handful of C players with those...
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

Handicaps get stacked more and more per hero win.

If you watch Godzilla backwards it's about a benevolent lizard who helps rebuild a city and then moonwalks into the ocean.
