StarCraft 2 Official Custom Map 'Burning Tide' Arrives

by Alice O'Connor, Sep 08, 2010 9:30am PDT

Blizzard has released its first new official custom map for StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, pitting teams against each other and lava floods in a resource-gathering race.

Fire. I'll take you to burn.

Similar to the campaign map 'The Devil's Playground,' the 3v3 multiplayer map 'Burning Tide' is a race between teams to reach a resource target. Throw in regular lava floods and enemy interference and it's sure to make for heated competition, eh? Right? Eh?

Burning Tide is available now in the Custom Games list.

Kind of a interesting idea, shockign that no one else came up with it before blizzard even though that map is in single player. I will have to try it out.

I'm surprised Brian didn't post this one. Or perhaps he's too good for these silly custom maps ;P

I'm so gobsmacked by that cheeky pun that it took me several minutes just to write this much, never mind a witty retort.
