Warcraft 3 Board

There´s one special feature in SM: the further away from the mid a dying enemy is, the more points you´ll get. If you defend in a big team it´s harder to coordinate the team and you have to build cheaper, less effective towers - but you´ll receive much more points.

Therefore in the tournament you´ve two options (or something in the middle of them):


All build in the middle
It´s easy to build a long and strong maze, no firepower is wasted, it´s easy to coordinate and the different shops can create a powerful mixture. But the distance to the middle is not very high so you´ll receive not many points.


All build on their own spot
If you choose this you´ll find it harder to coordinate and maybe the weakest link can ruin your game. But the distance to the mid is much higher and therefore you´ll receive much more points.


I don´t know what´s the best option. I guess it´s something in the middle: you support red so he/she can kill all leaks but your big guns kill most of the creeps at your own spot. But that´s only a option with at least 3 players.

You should also keep the autobalance in mind: the less you leak, the harder it gets - the more points you´ll receive. So you should focus to raise the diffuculty to the maximum level you can handle.
