Hahahaha. ;D

What happened to the rumor of 2player maps only? Now I have to make a seven spawn map.

Sauerkraut Heights by Ragoo

2 spawn map with mains which are similar to Desert Oasis, with short air distances and a natural with two entrances. Tight chokes will force Zergs to abuse counterattacks which are favored by the layout.

Haha, credit goes to iGrok for that. This month is any melee map- seven spawns would be cool, but a two player map works too!

Well, TPW Ohana isn't close to being finished, but it should be ready for MotM#9, but i'll submit one of my older maps since it hasn't had a chance yet...

TPW Scars of Aiur by IronManSC (or IMSC)

[image loading]

This is a 2-spawn, 1v1 map. The rush distances are fair, and there are two options to take a 3rd (high safe ground, or risky middle ground). The lighting is rather darker than usual, but Aiur usually has a darker lighting effect to it, so don't let it get to you personally ^^

Scars of Aiur is awesome. A lot of thought in that. A little bit like a XNC 2.0
Really pumped for all the submissions, always great to have that overview of the greatest maps that have been made last months.
Also really excited for TPWs and LoS(do they still exist?) performances. Always great maps coming out of those teams!

Not sure if I'm gonna make the deadline, "Across the Stars" doesn't even have a mapthread yet, though I'm working on it as much as I can after work :S

Heimdall's Sanctuary
by LunaSaint

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=243979

--

I am outclassed again by a mile, I see.
Nonetheless, I'm just glad I've been improving.

Also, now I want to make a seven spawn map that isn't a nightmare to scout. ):

EDIT2: I would have taken a better picture but my PC's fans tripled in volume whilst taking them and this upsets me dearly.

I have to be honest, the lighting and atmosphere in this map are gorgeous. Definitely has a unique look to it.

I don't make jungle maps :D
I suggest that the deadline be extended a few days on future MotMs to allow busy people (like me) to be more able to submit their maps.
