Description[edit]

Paranoid Android (3 players) is a version of Paranoid Android, remake of the original with three players. Because of the change in the number of players, the symmetry was changed into rotational symmetry.

"At a first glance, it looks nothing like PA, except that it's twilight! But look closer! Testbug took PA's expo layout and redid it on a larger map for three players. The effect is great: even with the same expo layout, and several of PA's concepts such as the backdoor path from the nat through the min only, the gameplay is completely different. The backdoor should keep players trying to 100% macro their way through this seemingly macro map on their toes. Small bridges provide paths to the other players, just as in PA. Instead of a larger bridge to complement the smaller one, testbug uses a piece of land, ideal for the many battles and skirmishes the map will boast. These bridges create great strategic chokes, and can buy time to make the difference in a game. With PA's expo layout, great execution of a three player map, and testbug's magical decoration, this map is surely worth playing."

Notable Features[edit]

  • Gap at Natural Expansion - The small gap here forces the player to spread defences at their expansion. Lurkers can be used to abuse this small opening.
  • Small Bridge - As the game progresses it gets much harder to attack through this bridge, so players will use the center path instead.
  • Mineral Only - The mineral only is tankable from the high ground gas expansion, and can be tankable from the basillica.
