Description[edit]
The entrance of Desperado signaled a move towards macro oriented maps. It was a map that encouraged defensive play, while building up large armies before attacking. Statistically Desperado favored Protoss, a possible explanation for this is the ease Protoss can expand without worrying too much about rushes.
Notable Features[edit]
- Double Gas Main - Allows for quicker tech builds.
- Large Center Area - This encourages players to play defensive as taking expansions is easier.
Trivia[edit]
- sAviOr once chose to play Terran instead of Zerg on Desperado.
