Practice Your Micro : Offline Play

Ryan Rowland, an avid SC2 player and ex-WoW player made this UMS map based off a World of Warcraft Boss Encounter which can be played single player on SC2 beta. It’s basically the ‘Thaddius Encounter from Naxxramas’ but in Starcraft 2 form.

I was creating abilities for a contest at SC2 mapster and got bored, so I decided to make a little remake of the Thaddius boss fight from WoW. It turned out to be a very difficult and micro-intensive fight. Even I have only beaten it once on faster speed.

The three abilities are:
Polarity Shift: After 10 seconds, units next to units of the opposite polarity create an explosion of electricity that damages all nearby units.
Shocking Grasp: A random Target will be paralyzed and take damage over time. If any other unit comes within range of the afflicted unit, shocking grasp will jump. This can create a chain reaction.
Spawn Volatile Spark: Two volatile sparks are spawned, serving as summoned adds that should be DPSed down right away.
