Hey guys, this is the official map page for my map StarLocks: Awakening. As you might have guessed, it is based on Starlocks by nanotapki :-) (I have permission!) Map is now published to the EU.
In case you have suggestions, feedback, questions or just want to chat about the map, this is the place to post! :-)

StarLocks was based on the classic concept created by Zymoran and Demestotenes. Each player controls a hero, and the goal is to defeat all opponents by knocking their hero into the lava. Lava's rising and you better hurry!
At start each player has 2 spells, the Plasmaball and the Psi Storm. The Plasmaball is the standard ability that fires a projectile in target direction and has a much shorter cooldown than other spells in this map. The Psi Storm is unique in itself, and has no cooldown. You use it by hitting the Spacebar, which then will unleash a powerful psionic explosion in a short radius around the caster. It will deal above average damage to your enemies, including yourself!
There are 9 more spells aswell including the devastating Baneling and everyone's favourite spell, the Homing Shot. These can be bought, upgraded and sold in the custom UI shop. There you can also buy a Mastery which is a passive boost to all your abilities. There are two Masteries, Life Drain and Range.
Show you support to StarLocks by hosting, open to public and leave your computer ingame for 5 minutes. This will boost it's popularity! Thanks :-)
