Push spawned attackers toward the enemy side to destroy their life crystal while protecting your own. Pick the right units over your enemy to push through your enemy's attackers.

I'm remaking a classic from SC1 for SC2.
Recommended players: 2 [1v1] or 4 [2v2]
Some details:
- Buy attacker armies at the top left corner of the map. Each individual unit purchase creates an army of that unit. These units will automatically attack toward the enemy's life crystal.
- Buy defensive structures and heroes at your Life Crystal. In addition to minerals, these special units require vespene gas.
- Mineral count increases automatically. To fasten the pace of game as time goes by, income and vespene gas increases as you kill more units.
- For more convenient purchasing, hotkeys are initiated at the start for each player. [1-4] are for buying attacker armies while [w] is the life crystal.
- You can still play with/computers by adding AI for a player slot. The AI just makes random units so don't expect it to be any good.

The GM's of HOTS communicate, directly or indirectly, with the Admins regarding balance. I don't see what's to be offended about here. Very excited to see what he has in store for us, just trying to help him out to be honest.

@ all the other suggestions wait til you guys see the update he has made for us before flooding the place with suggestions that quite likely will become irrelevant. when someone says they have something cool for you. you dont ask what it is you say thank you and politely hold out your hand. if someone gives you a handmade sweater you dont "suggest" they go make you some matching socks.

THIS
Timed Aggro Mode as an option. The current mechanics of Aggro and Tug elude most of us anyway, and I haven't met a person yet who can differentiate between them. I honestly think this alone would breathe new life into the game.
However more pressing matters persist in the mechanics of battlecraft. Air units need some overhauling, and we need more AA unit variety. A slight nerf on viking range among other things might balance the scale a bit.
Keep in mind ppl these changes are very slight, and will not affect general play aside from the viability of light air units!!!
I tried to keep things as basic and unobtrusive as possible, while addressing important master-level balance issues. Thanks for any consideration.

iiCarly May 09, 2013 at 05:46 UTC - 0 likesTo take out the disruptor trick (where at the end of the round they suicide at the last second having broodlings at your pylon, and they spawn and kill your pylon during the 10 second down time imbetween rounds)
You should add a Nuke during that period. 1 nuke that radius covers the whole map, take out the animation and there you go. no more cheating with disruptors.

NaturalAnthem May 07, 2013 at 18:52 UTC - 0 likesnot gonna lie it took me far longer to find this thread after hearing about it in game than I care to admit hah.
Had to read about a possible update though! I 100% emphatically vote for the return of a timed aggro. These saved up side-attack games are getting ridiculously boring, new units would do little to fix. I miss the days of learning different tiers of counters, the skill level was much higher. Keep terrazine though, love that shit.
Ratings reset would be good too. Ideophobe/iiCarly know what's up.
@WINNING - I vote no to quick minerals :P although it does make for a quick double marine apoc beast send.
