new SC2 map posted

Twisted Peak:

 

lookin' good!
so I guess you'll be spawning in the top/left and bottom/right, then?

 

Looks like it. I like how the yellow minerals are placed close together and right in the middle of all the action.

 

It looks like if you secure the ruins or whatever, in the middle of the map, you basically win x) You get the two patches of yellow minerals, and you can deny the opponent an expansion if you have enough artillery.

But it looks like a fun map to play. Though it probably won't be the first I go for in multiplayer.

 

can anyone confirm the spawning locations?

 

humm still no information

 

and for that reason securing the ruins will be the fun part of the battle

 

It's 1v1, so it's always the corners

 

I can pretty much gurantee it is going to be top left and bottom right.

 

Haha, where else would it be? The middle? Have the players miner rush each other? Hehe. I miss those ol' StarCraft maps though

 

So now that we have agreed on the starting positions, think about this;

Where will you most likely build your first expansion on this map? I don't think there is an evident answer here.

Considering you spawned bottom right.

- If you're playing Terran, I would expand straight to the yellow minerals and fortify the position.
- If you're playing Zerg, I would expand at the most leftsided minerals. That is if your going for a quik hatchery.
- If you're playing Protoss, I would use my natural expansion.

But then again, I'm not a great SC player.

What would you do?

 

i would lift my base(if im playing terrans) and fly it to the high yield resource area... :wacko:

 

If I am a Terran player I will immediately build bunkers next to the enemy base.
If I am a Protoss player I will immediately build Photon canons next to the nemy base.

Just kidding.
