Hey,

I'm here with another BW remake, this time it's Loki II, MotM finalist for January 2012!

All the beautiful aesthetics you can see are done by my TPW companion Samro225am (with some fine tuning by Nullcurrent). Thanks! : )

Uploaded on EU and NA!

Overview of the original

+ Show Spoiler [Overview] +
[image loading]


Size: 144x126 (which is about Daybreak size)

Notable features:
- full backdoor base
- very easy third
- very small middle choke (at the moment every unit can pass, may change)
- long rushdistances
- you can always get flanked and outmaneuvered
- middle unbuildable (for creep tumors as well)

Really happy that more people are making 2 player maps again.

Interesting design, and looks quite tidy nonetheless. The choke in the centre means there's a slightly shorter rush distance for small groups, such as early pushes and ling counterattacks, but but a proper army will want to take the side routes, no?

I'm worried that people are going to complain about all the ramps.

The middle of your map is probably one of the most creative middles I've seen in a map.

Good work!

Did they use this is the IPL Map-Makers Tournament? It looks familiar, with the inbase expo and all...

Love this map. Even looks kinda brood-war-ish. My only concerns are that taking a fourth base vs zerg could be quite difficult, and that the in-base expo may be able to be sieged across the game.

It is a remake of a Brood war map.

This map is one of the reasons I watch Starcraft. Bisu vs Stork, 5th game on MSL finals. Best. Game. Ever. Gj!

Hard third. No? (Just asking.)

Edit: missed the outside base natural. Check.
I love.

You obviously don't get the point of the tight choke in the center do you? It is perfect for Zerg. While Protoss and Terran are taking their 200/200 armies through either the left or the right, taking the long way around, Zerg has a great Zergling counterattack path.

This is a good remake. I am cannot wait to try it.
