A great being has been awakened, do you have the power to beat this shade of the world destroyer as the shadow closes in. note: nulify boss to begin encounter takes damage from snipers

Quite interesting map but why didn't you tell that snipers can damage the thing?
I think this map will get a low rating because most of the players will be super frustrated when learn that they have to nullify the thing 40,000 times... (because you tell them to use nullfiers and you do not mention snipers).

For hardcore players like me it's OK to hide essential information and to force us to try things but don't be surprised if most players will quit the map and rate 1 right after they nullify the thing the second time and see that it has 39,999 "lives" left.

the information with snipers and nullifiers was in the description so I sorry if you didn't see it I'll put those details In the level next time

Doogie: you are absolutely right, it was my mistake. But anyways, it is safer to include important infos in the opening conversation.

Even knowing the sniper bit it's not a good map.  After coming here to see what was up I laid my forces out more appropriately.  Despite discovering that I should have had more beams I simply let it play out--the only time I touched the controls was to respond to the prompts.  A map I can win while afk isn't a good map.
