Description[edit]

Ice Mountain is a map released by Blizzard as part of Brood War and intended for non-ladder play.

It's an asymmetrical three-player map with positional imbalances. The most obvious of these imbalances is the fact that the starting position in the bottom left can be attack by air from more directions than the other two starting positions, making it harder to defend.

Also, while the gas of the two high ground expansions to the north on the central platform all can be harassed by Siege Tanks placed on the lowground (though it is easier with the left one than the right one since the latter can only be reached by one Siege Tank), the gas of the expansion to the south is protected.

Notable Features[edit]

  • Long walking distance between mains.
