Let me check with the other judges, but it looks like the timestamp on the received map file by e-mail is Jan 7. You mean your post on TL has Jan 8, right?

Yes, I mean my post on this TL thread.

Jungle of Joy (2)

[image loading]

Created by Rut

This map was intended to be a large, macro-based 1v1 map with an easy-to-hold initial three bases, and then a good diversification of potential 4th bases. It is simple to understand and easy on the eyes, but with great strategic depth due to its many expansions, open map layout, and large number of viable strategies.

(On the high ground in the center of the map, the top and bottom bases have rich mineral fields, while the left and right bases have rich geysers.)

(4) Mirage

[image loading]

A 4 spawn melee map, x/y symmetrical. Made with emphasis on balanced distances between bases (naturals specifically) regardless of spawns (cross is 120 units* nat to nat rest are all ~100). Dimensions are 132x132 playable.

Features high ground ridges encircling the middle to emphasize the need to maintain at least some semblance of map control unless one is fond of fighting uphill.

No map thread at the moment.

-----
*Sc2mapanalyzer units. Close position metal and losttemple are ~80nat to nat, for scale (cross lt = 120, cross metal = ~135).

In case you are curious, "sc2mapanalyzer units" are map cells. A supply depot is 2-by-2 map cells, for instance.

M-301 Mining Facility

Author: Mirado

A medium/large resource rich asteroid worth fighting over! Someone was here once, but it is evident that they had only enough time to start setting up their operation before completely vanishing, leaving there destructible buildings around the mega, 8 gold 4 gas, super base in the center of the map. You better keep an eye on this area of the map as letting your opponent control this area will be devastating. Only the longest of attack paths cannot be watched over by a Xel'Naga Watchtower.

This map really comes alive when it's time to decide on your third...where will you choose to expand?

Map Name: Binary Rampage
[image loading]

Author: Alex Smith
Description: The paths between you and your opponent's base can quickly change when any of 4 rocks are destroyed. The paths along the edge are the first available but each have 5 rows of LOS blocking plants. These can be avoided by controlling the watchtowers overlooking the paths.

(4) Decline

[image loading]

Author: Samro225am

Idea:
A 4 spawn melee map with a general layout similar to LT on 144x144 without islands / High Yield and Triple Vespene as alternative thirds / 1-gas expansion between mid distance mains (at 1 and 7)

Rush distances:
Close rush distances are longer than Metalopolis, while far rush distances are closer. Rush distances are rather evenly distributed.

Features:
Wide open ramps at both central HY area and towards Nat-choke and triple vespene / DRs on third vespene also blocks ramps that help counter drops / Cliffs at High Yield can be used devensivly against XN-watchtower / Main be cliff-walk attacked from High Yield area / Different drop-options at all shared expansions / No-fly zones around towers in map's corners

(I was not positive of the overview angle.)

The map molded itself to the image of f Disney's Wall-E. Cross position spawns at 11 and 5 o'clock positions. Destructible rocks are located adjacent to each players natural expansion. Xel-Naga towers are located near the center of the map at the 9 and 6 o'clock postions.
