EDIT: Also, go vote on the new poll question: "What do you think of the new Custom Games System?"
Just wanted to mention, anyone interested can go check out LordAbyss's Unit Comparison spreadsheet. It's used to obviously, compare various data between two units.
Rock, Paper, Scissors by Zarakk
This is exactly what it sounds like: Rock, Paper, Scissors! Zarakk's version of the map will have three game modes: Tournament, Free Roam, and Tug-o-War. Each Mode has a different playstyle, and the map also sports various arenas you can play in. It's pretty simple in concept, but the thread has much more information, so go check it out!
EagleAI by MTops
MTops has been hard at work on this AI for months. In fact, I remember him referring to it back during our Melee AI Contest. Some notable features of his AI are:
- Unit micro (focus fire on weakest unit, use weapon bonuses, retreat wounded units)
- Tactical ability usage (blink, force fields, emp's and fungal growth are all used)
- Excessive creep spread (zerg AI uses tons of creep tumors to make a creep highway)
- Harassment strategies (medivac drops, mutalisk harassment and nydus worms)
- Human-like errors on lower difficulty settings (limited multi-tasking, slipping macro, getting supply blocked, etc)
- Large amounts of strategies available, so every game is different
- Priority based production system (instead of food based)
If you want to play EagleAI, just search for it on Battle.net! Any feedback you have would be appreciated, he's currently looking for some information, so leave it in his thread!

We also just reopened our Twitter account, so follow SC2Mapster on Twitter!
We should have some amazing April Fools prepared by Sixen. We soooo got this :)
Clearly hes preparing for something on April first.....
The Pokemon is a lie?
The Blizzard is a lie?
The Cake is a lie?
The dude is a lie?
what is se7endays? (thats the picturename) ;)
I sadly don't think Sixen was joking, he actually thought that the logo meant Arena in Korean ... ... ... lawl ... ... ... I wuv u Sixen <3
What a coincidence. I had recently been wanting a rock paper scissors game.
Lol, damn you Sixen, stop teasing us :P.
7 days = April 1st
hahahahaha
exactly that letters "ì•„ë ˆë‚˜" means Arena
I'm korean, so can read it
hahaha Sixen's joke is humorous
Oh trixy Sixen. For the others, if you look closely at the black background you will see a set of 3 Korean letters in a slightly darker contrast.
I think you left out a wink in that last comment, Sixen ;)
Whoa Kale, really? That green/black symbol thing means "Arena" in Korean? I just thought it looked cool.
The writing in the background is the Korean word for "arena".
Actually Maul... That was supposed to go up the other day with 1.3, oops, :).
Maybe it's a new site poll question? :P
I am utterly displeased by the desecration of the pokemon ball.
I hope the big reveal is a new action to close Banks after saving them.
The cake is a lie
Hm.. A surprise in 7 days?. (se7endays.jpg)
