Whats up with third gas being so hard to defend. Moreover, Acro doesnt even have a Gas natural. All the maps, except the first and the last two are gonna be Zerg massacre

Map pool looks like T > Z > P. Even PvT on some of these maps look difficult.

Return of the gazillion TvTs?

Will the PL season still use some old maps as well, or are they starting with just these new ones?

Pretty much all of them look good for terran and anti-toss :S

Not cool. TvT is way too boring.

Hmm Acro seems familiar.
Is this the same acro like this one in the link ?

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=77420

It seems to me that this maps was used before just didn't make it into the official maps and maybe they are reusing it with small corrections. To bad there isn's a picture of the old map.
There is also a map named Isaac Newton which also never saw the daylight

On the subject, i think most of the maps will turn with unexpected balance (medusa anyone?) and
Match Point and Silver Sky looks really cool

what? yes it does, the gas natural is "in the back", only the base in the front has no gas.
I actually think zerg will do pretty good on that map.

Anyways, here's to hoping those maps will be relatively balanced... I already don't like judgement day.

I like all these maps, except for Judgement Day. I don't think it's aesthetically pleasing and I think non-terran players are going to have nightmares of tanks blasting their stuff from behind the thin walls around everything but the mains. I can tell I don't like it already. Actually, they all seem somewhat terran-favored except for Silver Sky.

Actually i think roadrunner will b a nightmare for terran
terran will have to control the large centers, but just like on destination, any movement of the terran push (which looks like itll b hard bc idk if u can build on those road tiles) will b stoped by bridges. And itll b an arbiter playground with statis locking up narrow chokes, hell carriers may even b used on this one seeing as goliaths will have to walk AROUND to get to the carriers.

Also looking at point makes me say one thing for pvt. 12 nexus. I just dont see why you wouldnt when ur natural is on highground with just a narrow ramp and choke to defend it

asgard will b interesting not sure how thatll end up
as for judgement day and moon glaive, yeah terran maps, especially moon, bc u dont need to buy drop ships to abuse the high ground with tanks on that map, and thats just ridiculous.
Acro and tornado will b interesting bc they seem to promote shuttle play. Especially acro, with all of the island expansion only reachable and harrasable by shuttle, we will a protoss playground pvt, except for the case of fantasy who has been waiting for a map like this. Tornado has a huge center, but idk ab the sides of the map, so its also a tossup, but i can see lots of shuttle play on it

Agreed.

Also the high ground on asgard looks so low. Interesting.

I take every whine about map imba with a grain of salt. In fact to be honest I just ignore them. Remember when Battle Royal was first announced and everyone was like LOL IT'S THE NEW TROY ZERG IS GONNA GET RAPED ON THAT MAP?
