I have no plans to include any additional units except those found in the standard melee format. If I do that, it would become a completely different mod.

I didn't read through all the comments, (sorry if this has been brought up) but game kinda stinks when you have no air units on your team (since we all went random) and the other team just lifts off and starts bm'ing everyone. Kinda takes the fun out of the game.

Is there some kind of game timer that says if one team doesn't mine/build units for so many minutes they lose?

Updated to version 1.28 on EU!

Added two new modes:
Classic: In this mode, the Monobattle constraint applies only to Team 1's players. All opposing players can build anything they want to defeat the Monobattling players.
Hidden: Time to sharpen your scouting skills for this mode! Players cannot see what their opponents have chosen in this mode.

Edit:
Let me remind you how to set the Monobattle mode:

Create a game yourself using the "Create Custom Game" button. Select any of the Team Monobattles maps which use the latest mod version (eg. Extinction, Arakan Citadel or Megaton). Use the drop-down on the right to change the "Unit Selection" setting to Standard, Random, Classic or Hidden. Click on "Open to Public" to let people join your game (this locks the Unit Selection setting).

Have fun!

...
What if you lose your whole !@#$ing base but then own the other team?
"YES WE"RE GOING TO WIN"
*We are sorry, but you auto-lose because you aren't mining*
"..."
"FUUUUUUUUUUUUU-"

haha yeah, about that btw if you have absolutely nothing to deal with them and you have a zerg player, you can just research zerg drop and drop them on the tanks to deal quite a bit of damage if you load enough units

This needs one simple update regarding floating buildings.

There are many places in the map where buildings can be floated. My suggestion is, if a team controls no buildings except for landed buildings, allow the other team to make air units.

I have had several games where we had easily won turn into long stall wars, because the other team float a building to the corner of the map. You think 'choose better units' but unless you choose viking, BC, corruptor, muta, or protoss air, you can't win.

If one team only controls flying buildings, let the other team build flying units.
Or, If one team only controls flying buildings/have buildings floating over non-solid ground, make them burn to death.

This. Two hour game the other day while being flamed by the losers who flew their buildings away, stating our team "chose" the best units (we all randomed).

The thing is, it is a custom and there is no real reward for staying for a finish. Its just a e-penis thing.
Just leave, accept you won in your mind and do more customs.

I just wish all these monobattle updates would go to the US

I'm in a game right now with one enemy CC left floating in a corner

one teammate immediately left before choosing a unit, and the other 2 left right away and we ended up with zero anti-air. I killed everything with zerglings but now we are at a bit of an impasse

More people need to play this ^_^ it could be really great if you could actually get games in a reasonable amount of time, but I guess the most appealing customs are the DotA clones and games that are just a quick dose of fun :X

My friends and I totally love these maps. Since we have a huge skill difference in our group, we always do FFA's on them. I was wondering if it's possible to build an FFA mode into them; something like a player can gg out of, and then that player gets sight of everything.

I agree. We were, however, being taunted and verbally abused. I felt like giving in would just make them feel better. :/ Oh well.

Was the Infestor exploit fixed? Previously you could MC a Probe and then have access to the entire Protoss tech Tree, enabling you to build any units. I haven't seen it lately, so just Curious.

That's a very cool feature!
