This map is a recreation of a famous starcraft 1 map called The Hunters. It was one of the few default maps that had a lot of players. In fact, it's kind of where Big Game Hunters came from because it was a version of this map, but with more resources.
Was looking at the map itself and its a bit of an unbalanced map situation for the different spawns. The top middle and top left are both essentially forced to fight for their shared natural while someone like the bottom right has their own land bridge all the way out to the middle of the map
@@alexsis1778 It's probably purposely made that way to force engagements, since yes resources are infinite but you are still dependent on the amount of bases for how much you can bring in per minute, guaranteed it can cause some problems especially with out a full lobby, but that is FFA in a nutshell, not exactly made to be balanced.
This match was fun to watch and hear you cast it. Only problem and what couldve made the match better is if there was an extra 2 more players, since with only 6 players some of them will have advantages over the other easily with base starting position and by the fact the unlucky players will get overrun by the first then second players.
There is a reason to expand even if you have an absurd amount of resources; higher income. You can only get so much income from one base, expanding doesn't just increase the amount of resources you have available, it also increases the amount of resources you get over time.
Serral vs Flash Florencio vs Fatslob Caster FFA among RTS games (SC1, 2, AOE, or even take a completely different page and throw in something like forts) Like so many potential matches that’d be so cool to see
YES cast the SC1 free for all... I'm so surprised that the SC1 guys pushed out the SC2 guys so quickly... id love to see how they perform "on home turf"
While you point at effort creep tumors, i'd like to point how brilliantly he dragged his creep in beetwen his main and first expansion :P Because who need's tumors when you have overlord creep pooping!
Before watching I gotta guess that Red and Green will last until late game because they have much more space to move around in. Edit: After moving a further bit in the video, I was half right, In this case Pink was the one who lasted to lategame.
You should also cast the SC1 FFA between those legends!
thats what i was gonna say
Agreed
Get a streamer for star craft 1 and just do it. Let's learn this game!
You should also cast the SC1 FFA between those legends!!!!
Should? No, you MUST
HELL YEAH
Zerg op confirmed, they can just make unlimited creep tumours
Lowko, this is one of the most iconic SC1 maps. The Hunters I believe.
As well as big game hunters from both games. I'd say big game is more popular as the custom games juggernaut from sc1
Tbh I'd love to see more 2v2 and FFA competitive events for SC2. Could be a way to spice up the meta and game.
I always expect a game played by Special( the player) when you announce a “special” game
What a missed chance, not to introduce Last last...
Smh...
Thumbnail edit suggestion: you should put 10 red arrows pointing to mvp
10 arrows is a great idea and I think it should actually be at least be 15... but RED arrows?! Now that’s too far
Guys, 69 arrows

This is bgh, not hunters.
Both are legendary maps. One originated from the other.
I see Mvp and MC in SC2 2021. I click. I watch.
I was talking about how I wish a game like this existed with my mate a few days ago, except marinekingprime and Idra misses but otherwise it's spot on
Now... imagine if in this fight was FLORENCIO.
Didn't Last take on Florencio some time back and got cheesed?
This brings back alot of Nostalgia. This is sad to see how most of these legends are forgotten today.
Nothing better for your first SC1 video than a crazy FFA!
Hey lowko!
Can u cast all the games that were played at the starcraft legends?
Including sc1 games as well, that would be nice to watch
Yeah that would be awesome, love these matches
The map is an SC2 remake of the actual Big Game Hunters map from SC1

I used to just bing play this map in broodwar with my brother and friends. So many good memories. XD
@@jasonlynch282 Yeah! I used to play with my Dad, before we moved over to SC2.
Effort really WORKED for that win!
...I'll see myself out.

Lowko, could you bring us more of these free-for-all games? They are really cool and refreshing to see!!
Lowko should have 1 million subs hes really good

Mule drops can make one base very viable. Except your stuck on 2 gas.
Man this brings me back. Loved this map and Temple Grounds and Trinidad. Ooo and River Styx. So many broodwar memories!
Also, Last wanted to build turetts but forgot the engineering bay, you can see him starting it on his natural just before the last fight
Oh Damn Big Game Hunters. That`s a classic SC1 map. so much childhood nostalgia man.
You said the name of the map without actually knowing what map this was, that's kinda hilarious :D Big Game Hunters ftw!
Love it so much. I played this map on sc1 so many times. It was the best seeing a sc2 version played by some pros
What a crazy type of game, fantastic! :D Thanks for casting this match Lowko!
i love when lowko geeks out whenever he talks about oldschool progamers
Neat! I love the switch ups, thanks Lowko
What a fun game to watch, but it would be even better with Starcraft 2 pros.
A 4k, FFA match? I don't have enough popcorn for this!
love these SC1 style games, used to play them all the time, on this map too
Played BGH like 5k times. Ooooh the memories
Yes! You should absolutely cast that game!
pleaseeeee cast that game!!!!! that sc1 game was amazing!!!
I've met MC on several occasions. Great guy.
I love watching you cast FFA games
yeah! Cast this versions' match of SC1, you'll do an amazing job!
Yes! I love crazy non-standard games like this!
Who is this guy casting?
And what does he have for me today?
I NEED MORE OF THIS STUFF!
Love the idea of seeing some commentaries of SC1!
I would LOVE to see you cast SC1 matches!!
Yes please, I would be happy so see a starcraft 1 in action
Yess, these kind of games are so fun to watch! Thank you!
seeing ss1 cast between them would bring some nostalgia for me
I'd love to see, it would be fun. Mixing up names wouldn't be so much trouble, since we already see that couple of times in SC II lol
I had already watched it, but watching it again is still good
We need more of this awesome content!
More of these please.
Serral vs Flash
Florencio vs Fatslob
Caster FFA among RTS games (SC1, 2, AOE, or even take a completely different page and throw in something like forts)
Like so many potential matches that’d be so cool to see
Love the free for all games would love to see some starcraft 1 by lowko.
The Hunter i believe the map was called in SC1, amazing game.
great video Lowko :))) and yes i’d love to watch and listen to you cast SC1 games.
That was a great game! Wish it was a bit longer though, keep them coming!!
Yes! The SC1 match! Do it!
This is the absolute GOATed lineup
Flash, Jaedong and Bisu tho? :)
hunters mucho money, that takes me back
YES cast the SC1 free for all... I'm so surprised that the SC1 guys pushed out the SC2 guys so quickly... id love to see how they perform "on home turf"
Pleeease cast sc1 games for fun!! That would be hilarious!! Love the content Lowko ❤️
StarCraft 1 video... sounds hella interesting, and I would watch it
While you point at effort creep tumors, i'd like to point how brilliantly he dragged his creep in beetwen his main and first expansion :P Because who need's tumors when you have overlord creep pooping!
Yes! Oh yes! More of this please!
Ha! Fun stuff. Please, cast the SC1 games! (at least, one)
Was kinda hoping for flash, but this is definitely great as well.
That definitely was a last effort move
Where's Owko L.? He could join you casting the sc1 games too as you mention you may need a pro helping out
Owko L. Most trustworthy SC 1 caster
I would love to see mvp, mc and nestea back in sc2!!
It would be a dream come true.
Yeah, cast SC1 game for sure. That would be kind of neat.
Poor NesTea, just manages to fend off the Hellions. Then the Banshee's arrive :D
The meat and potatos? Love it!
Yes. Pls, cast SC1 FFAs!
Before watching I gotta guess that Red and Green will last until late game because they have much more space to move around in.
Edit: After moving a further bit in the video, I was half right, In this case Pink was the one who lasted to lategame.
"When two dogs are fighting over a bone, the third is definately making battlecruisers." The classic saying we all know.
Big Game Hunters remade in SC2, once there was a bug in SC1 that the 9 o'clock AI doesn't go tech
Big Game Hunters was all I played when I was a child lol
It would be awesome to see you wondering what are those snails in SC1
that last effort of last against effort though... poor battlecruisers...
That was an effortless game...
sc1 cast? Do it Lowko! I'd love to watch that.
I'm commenting how awesome this is before I even watch!!!!!! Go Zerg!
You might say that the final two players made a... last ditch effort.
never though I would see most of these people ever again let along in a free for all
Yes, please, more FFA is good! I'd love to see some SC1!!
I think there was no single larva inject either Lowko 😂
StarCraft1 commentary would be awesome.
We would loove to see the sc1 game!
this is awesome!
too much skill in one map :D
It's been a while since I came last to the comment section, but there has been put so much effort in this video, I just had to comment as well
The thumbnail looks like a character selection screen for customizing your character in fallout 4 they all look like templates...
would love to see the SC1 game
Soooooo... Basically we all play sc2 like starcraft legends, right? :D
Awesome video!
You MUST cast teh SC1 FFA!!!!
13:56 "He just secured this natural" ... 5 minutes earlier in the game and you've casted it like 5 times xD Great game nevertheless, loved it
I would love to see the SC1 FFA
That was a lot of fun to watch, try out casting one Starcraft game and let's see how it will do. :D
I watched this game live on BlizzCon line it was amazing
YES!!! Cast it!
This map recalls Hunters from sc1
definitely should cast starcraft 1
SC1 would be fun to watch
