Click to see all Divinity info on
www.prodiGsc.com!

Divinity is a 4 player map inspired by Kulas Ravine, a Blizzard Map. It was originally named Godless after the song “This Godless Endeavor” by Nevermore, but “God” is not allowed in a map name. Divinity is the third map of a series to be released between Sept. and Oct. 2010.

Search "Divinity" to play! This is potentially an iCCup Map pending further testing

Features & Notes
Features

-2nd natural in base blocked by Destructible Rock After seeing the success of God's Garden and how hard it is for Zerg to kill a 3 armor rock, they have been removed.
-Gold expansion & natural back door blocked by Destructible Rock
-Unbuildable center
-LOS Blockers in front of the closest path to center
-Neutral Creep tumor
Notes

Horizontal & Vertical choke to choke is ~24sec (at 2.81 movespd, aka Probe), Cross position choke to choke is 30sec. Tanks from the gold cannot siege the natural, and the cliff splitting the two naturals is pathing blocked

I wanted to make a map that had everything I liked about Kulas Ravine, and nothing that I didn’t like. I believe that’s what I’ve done here. The mains and in-base expansions are even copy/pasted from Kulas Ravine. I also wanted to make a reflection symmetry map that would play completely different depending on each spawn: Vertically, players can easily take the gold as the 4th and the Xel’Naga Tower will be a key point as it sees the main path between the two starting positions. Horizontally, players will have to be a little more aggressive as the nearest 4th is the shared gold, or the bases in the middle of the map which are quite some distance away and thus more difficult to defend, and there are no Xel’Naga Towers to help spot attacks. Cross positions is a completely unique game as the Xel’Naga Towers won’t play a huge role so it will be up to the player to adapt and scout. The middle will become much more important, but controlling that space will be more difficult since the middle area is unbuildable.

In testing I’ve found this map to be one of my most fun yet, because it is very easy for the game to truly start once you’ve secured a base (or two even), but once that starts the fighting doesn’t end until someone gg’s.

Here are some images from the map analyzer, beta, and map sketch

This looks to me like what many wanted out of Kulas Ravine (but didnt get).

Middle is more open, natural is more defensible, 3rd is probably the safest (which will make for some longer games) and the design and lighting look very well done.

I am down for testing.

Trying to make a map better than KR isn't much of an accomplishment, as anyone could do it, because KR is one of the worst maps in the map pool. But you went beyond making a better KR, and adding some neat features that I wouldn't have expected to see on a map like this one.

I am curious how the pools of water around the center of the map would affect battles.

Me too! The unbuildable terrain starts right on the other side of the LOS blockers, but all space in the middle except for the center circle piece is checkerboarded (it has 1x1 holes for creep tumors and sensor towers everywhere) so you can still extend the creep highway through it. Force fields may be a little nasty but I think if you're careful you won't get completely killed by it.

Can you make a version without the destructible rocks on the back natural? SC2 really needs a solid macro map and it also favors terran.

Should just call it KR revised or something. I still don't like this map as a Z player. Backdoor base is never good for Z. Any vertical or horizontal positions are really bad for Z because of the fact a base is on the path and the fact that tanks/colossus with army can use that.
Whats up with that path to the backdoor base too? Only terran maybe protoss can use that to attack from outside. Zerg can;t use that.
Too much wasted space behind 3rd blue base, should just move it back into there or something.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Nice rework from Kulas Ravine. Instantly thought about Kulas when I looked the map

But I'd put Xel'Nagas to a little cliff. And those expansions at middle (right and left) could be a little more deeper? A lot of space there. There would still be plenty of space for air units to fly free

Nice work anyway

I can't hate on reapers so hard that they never get used! I haven't tested 4rax reaper on this map at all yet so if it does prove to be too abusable then I'll remove it.

The reason those expansions are there is because of the tension over those expansions that I want to create when you spawn vertically. Players will undoubtedly want to expand horizontally but the expansion is a bit easier to defend being right next to the tower

Message me if I'm on. I <3 your maps and like testing them.

(Except your map where my base started like twice the distance from the minerals. Or was that Kinki's?)

That was Enigma (i made it) I had just finished changing all of the terrain in the mains and when i moved the minerals back I forgot to move the spawn position

Can I hide my overlord in the chasm next to the main and natural without stalkers or marines able to kill it?

I like the center of the map; I love when players use clever micro around LoS blockers--there's a good balance of room to attempt flanks and chokes, too. Great work!

I feel like the is no flank room except in cross positions. In your original drawing, there was nice space for flanks, but in the finished version it came out cluttered... maybe consider opening up the sides a bit?
