TL Team Map Contest #4: Winners
The votes have been counted and it’s time to announce the winners of TL.net Team Map Contest #4! All finalists maps earn $220 in prize money, with a bonus of $100 for first place in each category (2v2, 3v3, 4v4) and $50 for second place.

One final time, we thank Monster Energy for being the presenting sponsor of the TLMC. Whether it’s promoting pro-level competition through the ESL Pro Tour or helping the general community through the TLMC, Monster Energy continues to be one of the biggest supporters of the StarCraft II scene. We also thank ESL and Blizzard for their continued partnership with TLMC, Wardi for hosting his 12th TLMC test tournament, and, of course, the mapmakers whose creativity is an integral part of SC2.

Some maps have been updated from their initial versions for gameplay and performance reasons.

2v2: 2nd place

“Rohana” by themusic246


Start the map with separate nearby bases and expand to a shared partially rocked-off natural. A variety of expansion patterns allow you and your teammate to expand together or separately. Take down the large central rocks to open up more direct paths.

Did you know, Rohana does not mean family?

2v2: 1st place

“Yellowjacket” by themusic246


Start out with two small entrances into the natural, each of which can be easily walled off. Work together with clustered expansions to defend common choke points. Take down the large rocks to open up a larger attack path into the highground.

3v3: 2nd place

“Voracity” by Meavis


Teams are split into fortresses with some easy expansions, the remainder of the map contains contested resources that could determine which side wins

Key Features

  • In-base expansions
  • Xel’Naga Watchtowers
  • Island bases
  • Rocks on ramps

3v3: 1st place

“Prodigy” by volumin


Prodigy is a 3v3 map with 24 bases total. The main is shared and has two entrances, one small ramp for one player and a larger one for the other two. The natural has one large ramp leading to it, partially blocked by rocks. There’s also a second entrance to the natural blocked by a mineral wall (two rows 10 each node).

4v4: 2nd place

“Unlimited Alchemist” by KillerSmile


On this 4v4 map allies spawn on a large high ground on which they find their natural expansion. The area below contains four, third bases and a path to a watchtower. From here you decide which side of the map you explore together. The lowground in front has rich gas bases. The side high ground holds 2 more watchtowers for corner control.

4v4: 1st place

“Riptide” by themusic246


A backdoor mineral wall in the natural provides access to a gold base. Work with your teammate to secure expansions along the sides of the map.
