I hope community made maps will get into ladder really soon, Blizzard maps are disgustingly bad, worst part of the ladder experience right now imo. Probably the only ladder maps I really enjoy playing are Lost Temple and Metalopolis.

Sadly, I don`t see maps like Chupung being in the ladder any time soon if ever even though it would be really fun to play on and it would surely produce extremely epic high level games. Apparently low level players wouldn`t be able to handle complicated maps which in my mind is a bullshit argument, they wouldn`t be able to use the map`s complexity in the first place. At least put those kinds of maps only in Diamond. Whatever happens, I think the current ladder map situation needs to be changed.

I really hope they put crossfire in the league pool. It's by far my favorite map. Maybe partially because it's a copy/paste of Peaks, but mostly because it's well designed.

I actually prefer Xel'Naga Caverns to Steppes, Blistering Sands, and Desert Oasis, ahaha.

But Crossfire would be sooooo good.

Basically the ladder maps in iccup we should use them till Blizzard dont make "good" maps.


Python? PYTHON!?!

Seriously, i have nightmares about how terran-favoured that map was. Just imagine the kind of things terran could do with reapers now..

To be fair, it'd probably still be less Terran favored than some of the BS maps we have now.

Lol wtf? I absolutely hated Peaks of Baekdu. It's like Sin Chupung Ryeong but weirder.

I just remember the first time I ever played on it, I had my goons and a shuttle with two reavers in a PvP. I sent them all together, but my goons got stuck in one of those narrow cracks where zealots and probes can make it through, but goons can't, and then my shuttle got sniped.

I've had nothing but bad memories of that map.

@GTR: Haha, yeah, Blizzard finally learned how to place mineral patches, and the concept of a natural. Seriously, first map I ever played on was Astral Balance. Wtf was that shit?!

I find Xel'Naga to be much better than the crap that is Steppes of War, Blistering Sands, Scrap Station. Much more open than those maps and actually allows the player to move around a bit -_-
