UPDATE: Some of you may find the game to be set to "slower" when you use "join game". To set it to "Faster", do 'create custom game" instead! (seems like many prefer to practice on slower first and gradually move up to faster)

Simple Concept: you are given 30 marines, and need to consistently spread your marines against ever increasing waves of banelings.

You can type "stim" any time you want to enable stimpacks/combat shields
"sling" enables speedlings, though this must be done before lvl 6.

Farthest I've gotten is lvl 15 =D - I had to enable stimpacks at lvl 9

The map is called "Marine Split Challenge" and it is published on NA

Dr. Deadmeat has taken over maintenance of the EU version!
Carn has uploaded it to KR!

edit: most of the high scores are achieved are using the marine splitting technique by Moja:

Here's a video demo by me for the first few levels:



If you can make it past lvl 5 consistently - congratulations, you are trading cost-effectively against banelings!

Instructions on SEA by Ardhimas:

1. Login to your NA account
2. Find and download the Marine Split Challenge map by Griffith.
3. Quit the game after you are fed up with the epic delay
4. Go to Single Player -> Versus A.I. and find the map in the list you are given.
5. Enjoy playing with 0ms delay ^_^

I think you should be able to see where the banelings are coming from, sucks when you start out moving one direction and it's the direction all the banelings spawned from.

At least in a game you will have a general idea where the banelings are coming from because you'll most likely have vikings/medivacs or scans going off to give you vision of where they are attacking from. :x

Otherwise it's a fun map.

I think for practice purposes they should always come from the same direction.

Level 16 with stim using the patrol micro described. Had never microed against banelings in my life before.
