Team Melee is basically a solo 1v1 game but with multiple players controlling each side. This allows better micro management of units, and in theory perfect control of economy. This version allows up to 5 players on each side to share in the duties and 2 observers.
This is not a new idea. Team Melee maps has been used by Star Craft for years. Often having one Pro player take on 3 decent ladder players (Some VOD’s can be found on the Team Liquid site). Some professional starcraft players use team melee maps to practice playing against really tough opponents, using two other pro players.
I would like to do the same for SC2. Basically take all the popular SC2 ladder maps and edit the triggers to make a nice Team melee map. It's also a nice touch to change a few of the banners or billboards to read something like "SC2 mapster team melee" and "team liquid - team melee". It just adds to feeling professional. //
Anyway I am looking for some people who want to help me. Because I haven't started looking at the triggers in SC2. OR someone can just take my idea and run with it, I don't care.
My dream would be for one of these map to get popular enough for two pro Korean teams play on (at the same time). I would love to watch that replay! The micro would be insane :), can you say 1500APM!!!!

I made a Team Melee map for WC3 a long time ago (with some help). You can see screenshots and D/L it here: http://www.wcreplays.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96205
What is “Team Melee"?
