Nope I actually think that this season is favored towards toss a lot. mabye it's just me but I think every single map is a carrier map. + plenty of space to proxy = always good for toss. | ||

It does seem they are trying to make it a little tougher for Zergs and maybe even Protoss. Maybe they are trying to give Terran the next round of domination...again... | ||

It might work well for mech and thus make that somewhat irrelevant, but I can't judge that. Acro might see lots of muta harrass too, but I guess the natural/choke layout sucks for zerg. 2 hatch on Judgement Day doesn't seem like a good idea. | ||

Actually, carrier maps are usually good TvP maps. Because any map that's good for carriers is horrible for the protoss ground army to try to flank the terran ball. Going carriers really is incredibly risky for the protoss, regardless of maps(maybe Katrina notwithstanding), because of the HUGE timing window for the terran to push. So saying a map is good for carriers means protoss could be in trouble. On August 28 2009 18:33 writer22816 wrote: 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? But Battle Royale is such a weird map it's hard to get a feel for the balance. These new maps are pretty vanilla in general. You don't even have weird stuff like temples or mineral blocks to add a little spice. OTOH, high ground right in front of the natural is obviously good for seiging up tanks(both TvP and TvZ). And chokes and Asgard and Judgement day seems impossible for FE in PvZ. | ||
