People on Reddit are saying the rocks disappear after a certain time period. But I am not sure if that is possible? Anyone know for sure?


I think in broodwar, it was. It should be possible in sc2 as well.

But does that map do it? Or is that a no rush/macro/air map?

3rd one has a large ramp.

last one better be 2v2 only...because that is the biggest sack of Protoss/Zerg flavored bullshit ever.

I could be wrong, but in Bw, you could still do drops/use air. Just no ground/infantry coming your way for the time being.

Oh yes, Terran players will simply ferry their entire army over rocks. That will work spectacularly.
Here, let me spread creep/use observers and completely counter all drops because I have no threat of pressure from a large army, as moving it is totally impractical and it would take far too long to break sufficient rocks.

Wow, I was talking about like hellion/marine drops, etc. Or cloak banshee builds, 1/1/1 maybe even.

Oh boy, tiny harass opportunities. Spread overlords (no threat of losing them to marines, put 'em over rocks), see the drop long before it arrives, build a paltry amount of units, crush.
Or from a Protoss perspective, warp in 2-3 stalkers along with your an senty. Force field.

Related note, first and 3rd maps look hard for Zerg, esp in ZvP where a fast 3rd is needed to counter the FFE.
