i wouldnt say those ramps are huge, plus you have high ground advantage at your natural which is rare

still, 2hatch muta will yield a deadly arrival time on ghost path....
im by far no good player or expert in anything sc-related, but to me this map looks like it will be z>>>>> t, z >>>> p and t >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> p....

Yeah.. this map will probably force P's to go for fast arbs. There's like no good location to engage a Terran army
i see this being either TvT or ZvZ only map, i highly doubt protoss will ever get to play it except at the very early stages of it

Checkmate is cool, but predict massive Vulture fights.
|
Somehow I sense that Z>T>P>Z in a number of these maps...
Gonna be a tough map set for tosses again

Or carriers. Look at the pathing! How the hell are goliaths possibly going to chase them down?

I can't for the life of me figure out why people are saying stork is gonna rape on Grand Line.
Tell meee

I think Ghost Path is asking for carriers. IDK if it'll be 2-base carrier like we saw in Katrina, but carriers will probably rape in this map.
|
Of course if you look at the maps with the current playstyles it's going to be very imbalanced. Hopefully people will come up with creative strategies that work. Seems to me like they're stepping away from macro style with more difficult large army ground paths. Maybe we'll see more aggression and small army engagements.
|
Umm for checkmate the natural seems really prone to tank siege if dropped behind...
|
These look nice, they seem "fresh" to me. Hopefully will show some new kind of styles. Just gotta hope theyll end up reasonably balanced, seems quite hard to say yet since many of them will play so differently than what were used to.
