And I would add ramps facing the gold bases on the top, that would make counterattacks/flanks a lot easier when Terran controls the tower. Other than that I like it very much. I'd love to have a balanced map that's the shape of Scrap Station in tournaments ![]() in the first version the golds were at the top. in another 2 versions the gold was in the middle but after all the testing, it worked out better this way, more of the map gets used, it feels more open and flanking on terran can still happen when they take the middle. Also alot of the players seemed to prefere it (it all flowed better). Also with the gold in the middle it was more imba for terran, coz if they took the middle they had a gold Expo right there backing them up and they wouldnt have to do too much to get to it to protect it from harass. At least with it on the sides they have to give up the middle somewhat to go back and defend the gold expos. | ||

there are a lot of ways for attack and it really requires a lot of multitasking to cover it all you need to have a good strategy entering this map personally i like it a lot cause it seems to me as a macro map ( just played 1 game on it ) | ||

Unfortunately I only can find the first version of this map on the NA server, and I was wondering if and when v2.0 is going to be uploaded? I really want to play on it and see how it compares to Scrap Station as it looks like a sick macro-oriented style of that map. Great work btw. Here is a DL link if anyone wants to upload to NA servers. Unfortuanately i dont have an account to do it myself. | ||

I'm not sure if its a bug map side or my side but when I was using a void ray to break down the destructible debris at the gold expansions I could not see any lasers. I never had that issue in any of the test matches. And there was alot of tests. So maybe its on ur end? though is it possible the uploaded map file can be corrupted or something. I really dont know EDIT: I was trying to think if i had seen that issue, and i hadn't. Then i realized i had never seen the rox destroyed by voidray, in over 50 test matches. So i just did it myself and you were right. This link is an updated and fixed version. I had to change it back to standard rocks ![]() Thanks for bringing it up. The EU server version has already been updated | ||
