From what I hear, Shakuras Plateau forces cross positions on ladder. Is there any way I can do this when I create a custom game? I'm trying to organize a local tournament and this is the only thing keeping me from adding it to the map rotation. Thanks.

Setting it to 1v1 should do this I reckon, tho this is complete conjecture. Haven't tested it.

When Played on 1v1 Melee mode, the map should function just like it does in ladder. It's important to note though, the map does not force cross positions, but rather just negates the possibilty of close vertical positions.

This is not true. Played a ladder game on it YESTERDAY and got top left and top right spawns.

I think it's referring how you cannot have both players on the same side of the map (both on left side or both on right side).

Ah, excuse me. It behaves like on ladder, which is not always cross positions, but never veritcal (close ground) positions. I falsely assumed that's what the OP meant.

you will never have someone directly above or below you.

You can be anywhere on the opposite side horizontally.

I think its possible that if you set it to 2v2, you will never spawn vertically close, but if you set it to 1v1 you might?

My reasoning is that its impossible to spawn vertically close as opponents in a 2v2.

Any other 2v2 maps have set position-spawning behavior in 1v1?

If anyone's ever had close (vertical spawns) then can you please post a replay of a ladder game?

this. it's what iNcontroL and a few others have debated about on SotG podcast and yes it;s the 2v2 setting b/c your teammate would normally be close positions

As long as you're set to 1v1 it'll force either cross positions of botleft - botright or topleft - topright, which is fine. Its only the vertically close positions that are ridic.

Go ahead and use it in the tournament its a great map. Just make sure host sets games to 1v1
