What is Nuclear Launch?



In the Nuclear Launch extension mod, the players will play on normal ladder maps, with one twist: nukes will drop randomly with increasing frequency at randomized locations around the map (excluding main base locations). Every minute, more nukes will fall and the craziness will increase exponentially. It’ll be a wild ride as we see how the players try to adapt to the situation. It should be available to try out on all servers at this point titled "GW - Nuclear launch".

Extension Mod:

Prize Pool Sponsors: A little while ago on my stream, we got into a discussion about weird extension mods and maps in Starcraft 2. Mr_G_W decided it would be hilarious to put together an extension mod named “Nuclear Launch,” and mLtySC decided he’d be a sick nerd baller and put up $100 to sponsor a showmatch between PartinG and RagnaroK .

brickrd Profile Blog Joined March 2014 United States 4894 Posts #7 awesome idea for a mod! obviously neither of these players is terran, but i think mech would have the worst time with this mod - repositioning siege units and losing turrets seems like it would be a problem. i'd love to see more showmatches with this mod

Future and Silky make a pretty legit undercard match. Future especially is being hyped up by everyone as the young up and coming NA player to watch.
