no, first of all most if not all pro gamers use shift+tab so enemies are red. Secondly map makers can remove and add player colors via 3rd party editor.
I think the main reason is just because its too bright (and lots of units look like shit on the tileset including pylon aura)

IS THAT AN ICE MAP????
SAY IT IS SO.
I have been championing for a new ice map for the longest time. I get so tired of the typical jungle tileset.
Cant wait until SC2 when you can combine all the tilesets into one (Well... I imagine you'll be able to do that anyway...).
Really like these maps. I hope to see a lot of them.

Why are people saying el nino is like outsider? I mean, I see the mineral walls but any player can access either side without moving through an enemy's main. Also, the first mineral wall is the natural expansion. That makes it a totally different map concept that shares a couple of features with outsider, namely 3 players and the use of mineral walls (though not in the same ways).

cool a map with snow 
the expos for el nino are kinda like outsider where the minerals can be crossed.... interesting.

Too bright = bs. If fans want to watch a real war, they'll watch one if they have to go snowblind!

there's 2 geysers near the main (not including the one in main) if you look closely
For 12 main, there's 1 geyser at main, 1 geyser at nat and 1 geyser at 11 (close to main, near the 7M mineral wall)

Honestly I like these maps. Pretty cool. I can't wait to see how they turn out.
Holy World was a boring disaster, and I'm glad they're finally ditching RotK.
But why...WHY WHY WHY did they fucking choose HEARTBREAK of all maps??
