Playable: 68x68
Published on NA/KR/SEA as "Chaotic Arena"
Published on EU as "Chaos Arena"

Because we need more non-serious maps. This is more or less converted directly from a BW map I made a few years ago which was a mainstay of my high school lunch time LAN games.

In case you couldn't tell, the spawns are in the center, for maximum craziness. Basically you can either try to actually mine to get combat units or just attack with workers from the start (or a combination of both). Either FFA or team games should work - the more players the better!

1. Limited creep to central area and expansions
2. Replaced destructible plates with mineral blocks (36 each), small additions to aesthetics

Very cool idea. If I had more Starcraft playing friends I'd try it out.

Id like to see this map expanded a little bit, where you have f.e. 3 of those hotspots and a little safer base

Oh, wow, wait, what?

You spawn in the middle?

I was sitting here thinking "this is a cute little 4 player map", and then saw "(8)" in the title. Looks like a lot of fun, too bad none of my friends play starcraft ._.

I don't think you need the unbuildable plates. Too hard for zerg to take a third

LOL.

I agree with Semmo but it cracked me up reading such a serious balance comment on this map.

lol the plates are there to delay terrans just lifting off at game start and flying to one of the expos to mine unhindered, which was usually what ended up happening in the BW version.

LOL it was half-joke. But I think it's more boring if there are plates there. Who cares if they lift? stop them from landing xD

You should add expansions on the left, right, top and bottom sides because I cannot imagine those areas being used.
Maybe even make the outer expansions visible to all players? That would be hillarious.
EDIT: That and I think golds should have even better income, with like 20-40 per trip. Because people will just drone rush. Maybe 10. I dont know but there needs to be a higher income per trip.
They don't want you to construct additional pylons

I had accidentally set it to private lol, problem is fixed now. Map is published as "Chaotic Arena".

@DilemaH: people can put buildings there, away from the general clutter and mayhem of the center.

Really sorry to ask again, but are you sure it's fixed? I still can't find it searching for "Chaotic Arena" in arcade or custom games.

I am quite possibly retarded, apparently I reset it from private to private.

Fixed, and this time i actually checked to make sure it works lol. Search "Chaotic Arena" in custom games section, for some reason it shows up as 1v1 so you'll have to create game and switch the game mode.
