Been playing around with runners for a bit. This map has a custom enemy unit, that converts creeper into runners. Careful about those big runners, as they give off lots of creeper when sniped. My 7th map, enjoy! #crpl #runners #inhibitor #nospores

Nope

The runner nest concept is quite good,
but this map does not use it well, nor even serve as an adequate demo testbed for it.
There are simply way too few runners and/or their payload is to low to be noticeable.

I liked the map's look, and the hive-like layout of it is tactically interesting.

The same map, but with 200-ish of those runners (thus causing catastrophe it you Bertha them) would be fun though.

Pretty interesting how there's a corner that isn't covered in creep due to the runner nest absorbing :)
And it gives a powerzone that reaches the inhibitor :D

Did a normal attack as well but didn't really notice any difficulties after popping a large runner.
