Another cheap map, so I guess the currency gained is fine.  However, it was a blank run on maps, so that's always a bit disappointing.  Now that I've run a few of them, maps of Champions don't seem to be great for getting new maps, although I guess if one does drop you have a better chance of getting a higher level map.

My main goal when running this map was not to die, but the boss killed me twice.  Once he popped up right from under me and I couldn't get away fast enough.  The second death I felt cheated on.  I guess I popped Frost Wall a hair too slowly, but it certainly looked like the big slow moving shot went straight through the wall to hit me.  So those two deaths made this run kind of a bummer as well.  I did level before I died, so I didn't lose as much XP as I could have from the deaths.

Other than the two deaths against the boss, I thought this was a pretty typical run.  Nothing really interesting dropped, and I didn't have many close calls in the main portion of the level.  I'm still considering the worm boss on this map the most dangerous of the level 66 map bosses I've seen.  I'd like to run another map tonight, but I promised myself I wouldn't run one until I finished my stash tab clean up.
