"""
To play an arcade map, you need to download the map first.

Open the StarCraft2 Map Editor through the Battle.net launcher, in the top left go to
File -> Open -> (Tab) Blizzard -> Log in -> with "Source: Map/Mod Name" search for your desired map, in this example "Marine Split Challenge-LOTV" map created by printf
Hit "Ok" and confirm the download. Now that the map is opened, go to "File -> Save as" to store it on your hard drive.
Now load the arcade map by entering your map name below in
sc2.maps.get("YOURMAPNAME") without the .SC2Map extension


Map info:
You start with 30 marines, level N has 15+N speed banelings on creep

Type in game "sling" to activate zergling+baneling combo
Type in game "stim" to activate stimpack


Improvements that could be made:
- Make marines constantly run if they have a ling/bane very close to them
- Split marines before engaging
