[M] (2) Coercion

This map came together through a combination of drafts I made on paper. The layout is a bit experimental. I wanted to create a map with a feeling of vulnerability by having the mains and natural further apart than normal. I also wanted to have many paths you could control your opponent from, some with destructable rocks that can block off a ground army. You can either take the third base below your natural, which is the closer base, or you can take the base near your main, protecting it from aerial attacks. The middle area can be forcibly choked off and is on high ground, which can allow for a great position of an army. I put an island base in each corner of the map, allowing for either extra sneaky play or an extra base in the super late game. I also wanted to give this map a feel of BroodWar Badlands, which I feel I accomplished. This map leaves me with a great feeling for the future of my maps, as I can continue nostalgia (and maybe even remake a brood war map using this aesthetic)
