I love SC2, I really do, it’s a great game and has some amazing tools to make custom maps. There is just one big thing lacking for custom maps, and that is the way they are sorted by Battle.net. They are sorted only by popularity, meaning people looking for custom games will allways see the most popular maps first, which are usually the maps that are longest around and best known.

Recently a very inspiring thread popped up on the sc2mapster forums about terraining, and thanks to that thread I finally found a direction for where I want to take my map graphically.
