Overview[edit]
Lost Temple was the defining map of the early StarCraft era, and so it continued its existence throughout Warcraft III and finally arrived as a map in Wings of Liberty beta. It also hosted the fourth Blizzard Battlereport between David Kim (T) and Yean-Ho Lee (P). The map was removed from official Ladder play on February 25, 2011, as well as most popular competitions, it was replaced by The Shattered Temple.
Official Map Description[edit]
Your base is easy to defend with easily defended additional resources. Watch Towers overlook the central battlefield. Islands contain additional resources.
Notable Features[edit]
- Cliffs overlooking the natural expansions provide an effective drop point. In TvZ, an early Thor drop on the high ground can be particularly hard to counter.
- Two island expansions, at 10 and 4 o'clock.
- Destructible rocks block high-yield expansion CC/Nexus/Hatchery placement, so time and resources must be allocated to freeing that up prior to expanding.
- The high yield expansions can be sieged from the highground next to the natural expansions.
- The two Xel'Naga Towers between them reveal all of the main choke points on the map, making them an invaluable point of control.
