I've been grinding a micro test map (Zerg levels) and the ZvT level of the muta control map. What maps do you guys suggest for practicing certain situations?

Iirc there was a micro mappack on the CPL discord and it had a bunch of stuff for all races. My favourite was a PvT map with 3 goons vs fd and 7 vs 2fac or something like that.

I was only able to find two links to outside the CPL discord on there. Those might be what you are referring to?

As I was uploading my UMS map collection to scmscx.com yesterday, I also noticed some old micro map folder with maps that have modification dates ranging from 2000-2004. No idea how good those are, but you could search scmscx.com for more micro maps. Most of those are probably part of the TL.net thread linked above, as they're from rOuta.

Yeah I wanted particular map recommendations, I found the map packs already, but that's like 200 maps to go through

Most of these maps are micro tournament style, I was looking for single player warm-ups and micro practice and specifically for Zerg

I do not know how to find it. But, there used to be a lategame UMS zerg that had levels of hardness.

Using lurkers,lings, defilers, you have to push through a maze of terran army positions and fortifications in a time limit, and they attack you as you move out.

I have been looking for it and the muta/scourge map and the scourge vs science vessel clumps one for the last 6 months.

I recommend them but I can't find them.

Oh, I'm only 1930 mmr or so these days, but the ZvP multitask keep the probe alive and playing schnail ai, are how I've been getting my rust out. Would love to hear if you have any recommendations yourself iopq.

The best two maps are these:

https://scmscx.com/map/fYq5h487

you can single player the first few levels, but it gets tedious after that and takes too long, I recommend just the first level with +1 attack

https://scmscx.com/map/VkpsgYt2

this one is excellent with challenges for all races

especially Protoss 4 is great for drone micro as well

I mean, you could add a lot of levels to practice.

1. Lings going up ramps and you have to do every single ramp type optimally with a certain number of lings
2. Kill the forge with only 4 hydralisks in a certain amount of time vs. a ton of cannons
3. Pop workers through minerals to kill a probe behind two pylons
4. Kill zealots and templars that storm with just hydras

Any other ideas?

5. Lining up hydra map to kill forge in time, not cannons

6. Infinite range sunken bug and how to try to trigger it manually instead of hoping the sunken will do it
