Well made architecture and outline of the map, however...
a single siege drop on middle besides the nat could destroy the natural.
I take it it's an island map, as for the natural minerals, It would be unwise to keep access from otherside of the minerals.

Mm, i was trying not to tighten things up and was a little worried about the distances with siegetank fire. Ill look into what im going to do about it.

I like it, I can't see anything wrong with it off the top of my head. It could be since I haven't played starcraft in like 6 months though. I don't really like how the map is 100% symmetrical with doodads and everything, but thats more of a matter of opinion. (Nothing wrong with symmetry, but I never liked maps that were 100% with doodads/types of land tiles.)

Looks like terran can still float a cc to the expos near the center of the map. :P

It's not like he's gonna fill the whole damn map full of mineral blocks to prevent CC landing. Mineral only expos don't make much of a difference until late game when everyone's fighting down there already.

Not a problem, no need to fix.



None.

Actually Titan those have gas too.

The way i look at is that i cant fill up the whole place with minblocks. I did the best i could with it and thats that. This is a fine example of a balanced air map IMO and im proud of it as one of my better maps. I do hope i do well in the contest.

The mineral blocks in the 4 center expos are unneeded in my opinion, I always thought terran's ability to float their buildings was an advantage to them. I can see placing a mineral block on an easily attainable air only expo on a ground map, but with air maps they are not needed, in my opinion of course, what the hell do I know.

Yeah...it only gives Terran a major econ advantage.

Yes. It is an advaantage to them, but when it would affect gameplay clearly in their favor, it must be changed. This allows terran to, essentially, FE. This gives them a boost over other races who need transports to expo (most importantly Zerg, who need to expo quickly and often.)

It just creates a very akward gameplay issue.

I dont know what skill you guys are, but usually for me, whether zerg or protoss, by the time i have expanded once, I have air to drop. Terran will first capture the natural ( naturally =D ), and by the third expansion, protoss or zerg will be fine to attack any others. It is an air map and thats why this is a little more flexible.

Good map Excalibur. That is major improvement since I last knew you.

O.o nice map excalibur.It is balanced, fun to play (I suppose) and I'd prefer to play on it instead of many other maps.Do you know why? Here's why
  • It's on my favorite tileset.
  • It is just great ^^

Although I dont really like the isometric squares or whatever they are at main (looks ugly imo) rest looks good.

NudeRaider -- Oh_Man
Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider yeh thts straight up cheating
the mutas yes, the wraiths probably not. Have you even watched the video? ;)

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating

Oh_Man -- arty's done another vid. he's also announced he's going to organise showmatches with pro, with NO maphacks, so we can see its actual capabilities
[10:09 am]
NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
[2026-9-23. : 2:30 am]
Symmetry -- I dreamed about that as a kid. The idea of a computer capable of analyzing a starcraft map and calculating the fastest possible way to hit the victory condition
[2026-9-23. : 2:29 am]
Symmetry -- But can AI beat my custom maps?
[2026-9-22. : 12:32 pm]
Oh_Man -- yea APM vs eAPM
[2026-9-22. : 8:48 am]
NimoStar -- plus most of the human APM is just spam clicking APM inflation
[2026-9-22. : 8:47 am]
NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.
