My first map with some spores.
The entire landmass to the southeast is irrelevant other than as a source of spores. You can go directly from the west mass to the top with it's much weaker emitters.

Better than forcing speedrunners go in a hard way :) Gotta be options to choose best from
Yeah, this is a good speedrun map and the early spores force you to build up a bit of defense before you take out the inhibitor. At least I think so, I dunno. Maybe there's a way to do this in 5 minutes, but I'm probably not the one to ask.
I like that there are emitters nearby that pose a very slight threat that must be dealt with, and the abundant energy makes the start quite easy. And thanks for putting in an inhibitor so that we have a choice to either go straight for a quick win or to take our time and kill stuff slowly.
Overall, decent first map! You could make it a little more challenging by taking away the energy and leaving everything else, but more challenging doesn't always translate to "more fun."
Thanks for the map! ;D
