"Are you still strong enough to survive the Gauntlet?"

(src)

The New Gauntlet was a Dominion military training ground. It was constructed by decree of Emperor Arcturus Mengsk to replace the old Gauntlet that was overrun by the Zerg Swarm. Engineers built the New Gauntlet "in a sector of space much harder for the swarms to overrun." During its construction the original blueprints of the old Gauntlet were utilized but with minor but important modifications put into it.

Game Map[]

The New Gauntlet is a map for StarCraft supporting 2 players. The creation of two Gauntlets is an in-joke by Blizzard Entertainment staff, responding to criticisms that the original version of the map favored the zerg too highly.
