To all map makers:

I've decided to make this thread for everyone who will be dedicating time into map making. If you create a map you may post a picture of your map as well as descriptions and/or feedback requests.

If you post a design for a map and update it please edit original post for that specific map, placing the older content in a + Show Spoiler +
OLDER MAP VERSION 1
and have the newer version visible with highlighted version and date for convenience of others

Have fun with the editor!

(2) IMPERIAL SCARS V:2.0

Description
+ Show Spoiler +
I originally designed this map for starcraft broodwar during the recent map makers contest a short time ago, I decided to evolve the map from its original state + Show Spoiler +
[image loading]
and I think it turned out nicely.

6 destructible barriers are placed throughout this unconventional starcraft 2 map that later open paths that are more direct to the enemy.

multiple xel nagas help to watch over hotzones or peer at enemy expo's if they are undefended.

One thing I decided to do for this map was to keep the battles economically savvy by adding very unconventional expo's as you'll see during play

as you'll notice, the high yields contain no gas, and the very center bridge-way of the map holds 4 vespene geysers


PS: I know I wrote the title incorrectly I was REALLY tired when I made this thread

bumping this, if there are any more mainstream threads, please link it here, if not lets keep this alive, i literally cannot use this editor because I for one believe it to be incomplete, seeing as it has no HELP feature yet, which I will desperately need. So to all you map makers out there, keep this alive, and keep the convo's flowing so that I can better understand this, as well as me. or anyone else.

A little 2v2v2v2 every once in a while really helps you enjoy Starcraft more. I find that some times when I play competitive 1v1 alot I get to the point where I just need to have a nice fun relaxing game where the point is to have fun and do crazy shit. Where the point of 1v1 is to win and a have fun in that order.

Side note: leave your SC2 identifier for easy recognition so others can download your maps when the next patch releases!

SC2 BGH needs to take into account SC2 units. Like, you know, Stalkers with Blink.

Being able to Blink directly into someone's main like that is probably not something that should be allowed.

I agree, Perhaps do some high ground/low ground adaptations?

or even LOS blockers would work temporarily but it would still hold balance issues

try making Medium game hunters with 6 players instead of 8 lol

Maybe. I'd have to test this with somebody.

Although personally I'd love to see stalkers with blink be the norm on BGH rather than "hope I don't get attacked then make a million carriers". SC1 BGH didn't do a very good job of tanking SC1 units into account, notably with siege tanks.
