Wow checkmate is by far weirdest and most unique map I have seen. Im really laughing at the alphabets there. Its like alphabet soup lol. Anyways I hope we will be able to see some games on there to see what kind of strats the pros will come up with.
Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment

I think for Fortress TvZ, the T can just lift and move to the island expasion and tech like crazy then crush the zerg with BCs.

Grand Line looks so sickkkkkkk.

It really looks like it's from One Piece. The middle is the Grand Line and the outside areas are the Calm Belt. I'm pretty excited about these new maps.

I remember that one map with the lurker eggs everywhere blocking paths. . . . That looked crap. But compared to checkmate it's map design genius at work. Holy cow what the hell is up with that map?

Inferno looks soooooo sweet. And the rest do as well. Fortress is T_T. WTF? Put some damn effort into it.

Which one of these will turn out to be the new outsider? New maps are always exiting to watch.

I love Grand Line, Inferno is ok, Fortress is pretty neat, Checkmate is funny, I kinda like it, but I fucking hate Ghost Path and Polaris Rhapsody.

I'm not sure about these maps.

Fortress looks like it will be a pain in TvP.

Ghost Path has such narrow paths it will be a pain to move big armies around...

Grand line looks really sick. I can totally see Stork owning everyone there

OMG all those maps rock!!
Few exceptions:
Checkmate- Although it looks interesting, and its definitely original its to squareish for my taste, and it also looks like a map form a good amount of years back.

Ghost path- As a mapper, its sexy, creative and original as hell, but I just get the feeling that it will be horrible to play this, and I dont like the type of symmetry the mapper used, and looks to tight, i dont see how T vs P can happen here... (every thing is tankable)

Finally: Fortress- This better be not finished, because it looks like a little kid opened scmdraft2 and started joking around, its such a noob map, or it could even be related to an old bilz map. It just sucks so bad I HATE IT!! Everything is so bad; deco, execution, concept, positional imba... I could make a hole essay about how bad this map is.

The other three ( The good 1s IMO)

Grand Line- Great map, concept, deco, execution, balance are outstanding my only critique is that I would have preferred another title set.


Inferno- Beautiful, just beautiful, that middle is as sexy as it gets, I love the bridges and the neutral buildings. On the other side: The path issue will be horrible and I think this will piss of many players. Also the distance from nat2nat of red 2 blue looks much shorter than the one 2 teal, and my last complaint is the positional imbalance on reds high ground neutral blocked expo, but that is really really hard 2 avoid in (3) player maps. OMG that middle is just 2 SEXY!!!

Polaris Rhapsody- Starting off, what a cool name this is! And it gos perfectly with this super map. I have no complaints of map (at first sight) The concept, the custom terrain and the custom ramps are fantastic !!!
What a great map!!

IMO this is a much better map pool than last season, except for that map fortress, what a shitty ass map that is, let it burn in hell!

Ghost path looks so fucking sick.

Fortress and Checkmate are...interesting, but I would guess that one of them is going to get dropped during the season lol.

Ghost path makes no sense at all... tank/mines = gg? swarm x5 = gg?

I love Checkmate though.. it's like an isometric chessboard (and now when you're obsing, you'll always know what spot on the map you're looking at). You can even refer to expansions by letter rather than _oclock xD
