I was thinking this myself; the third is a bit far away, but at least it's closer than Python. It's just plain enough to catch on, I think.

Foreigner mappers just aren't recognized by KesPA. Unlike the players, foreigner mappers are actually as good (or better) than the Koreans. Still, we can't do much about it.

These are some cool maps, I've been playing them heaps since this thread started... I play toss and terran, and man these maps are great for terran. Looks to be an interesting season coming up!

Match point is my favourite, I'm still not sure why I like it, but it's a good map.

fantasy Starleague win coming up?

well that goes without saying. KesPA deals with Korea.

The only exposure these maps can really get is through foreigner tournaments. But most foreigner tourneys tend to shy away from these maps due to the interest of the players (players want the Korean maps because they practice mostly on them and they know those maps have been thoroughly tested and played (and SHOULD be balanced))

1. Gas expo is inside main, not below ramp. Zerg and Protoss will be forced to expand inside main. This is good for Terran because Zerg cannot sunken their entrance through natural. As well as the fact that the natural expo can easily be seiged.

2.Choke points near main's, also god for Terran. We all know why, no flank's/clumping etc.

3.Good terrain for tank cover/can't be flanked.

4.This might be the most important aspect of the map. (Along with no.5) once Terran can take 3rd gas outside, it has a great high ground area to cover/and spread to another gas. Not to mention it's going to be hell for a Protoss who spawns at 5 o'clock vs a Terran at 7. Easy slow push with high ground to natural.

5. The easily harassable gas naturals.

6.A map that can easily be split in half. (Like God's Garden) And if it is split in half, Terran vs Protoss on same expos is hard to beat.

7.Gas islands, that will reward drop ship play.

That's not that disappointing really. It's a lot more balanced than the early release.
Most of the points i had mention still remain.
1. Was kind of retarded. Gas should be at low ground anyway.
2,3,4(Only 1 gas instead of 2),5 and 6 still remain.

Uh you realise that there is a gas inside the main as well?
This map has so much gas it makes pvz a nightmare (that in addition to the easily defendable 2 gas when you take another main).

The map has a nice concept, but its really failing hard in execution at the moment. For instance, that backdoor is so pointless - all it is doing is screwing up pathing because no one bothers to open it =/
