Unfortunately, as it stands atm, all the SC2 maps are high $ maps, starting with 2 Vespene Gas Geysers. Each expo, and there's always one right next to your initial base, has about 3/4 mineral fields as your starting one, and also 2 gas geysers. A few maps have your nearest expo with 100% the same number of mineral fields, and 2 gas geysers. Only expos further away have fewer mineral fields.
There's also some "gold/orange" colored fields which count as double collection rate.
So, all the games are pretty much rush, rush, rush, and mass, mass, mass while you tech. Many games are won/lost because of backdoors, drop ships, or Void Rays.
Void Rays are Protoss Units that gain attack power as they stay focused on a unit/building.
