Bloody Ridge looks awful. I don't understand how those ridges are of any strategic importance at all, when you can just go around them.

Because if you decide to go through one of the valleys you can be rape flanked by hidden highground units from the sides, its actually a really neat concept although I'm not too fond of the rest of the map layout.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Icarus and Empire of the Sun look damn sexy.

Let see the balance, now... many good looking maps are terrible.

I predict many, many Terrans falling to Muta harrass, particularly on Middle Hill.

I'd be shocked if FS was kept given how long it's been around.

It goes down in the annals as one of the great maps of all time.

Doesn't make things better really. It's still got the Punchbowl in the name.

Bloody Ridge is the map with the most potential here. Benzene is MP on steroids, Aztec is this season's Moon Glaive/Roadrunner incarnation, Circuit Breakers is this season's standard macro map, Icarus looks criminally zerg favored, Punchbowl has a dumb name (Should've called it Fingerboom), and is the center of Middle Hill all open?

Not too many new ideas in this pool, except for Bloody Ridges spine, Middle Hill's gates, and Punchbowl's perimeter passages.

Expecting:
Bloody Ridge
Punchbowl (with a new name)
Circuit Breakers
Fortress
Judgement Day
Polaris Rhapsody

And I love how there are still people reliably popping in to declare maps terran favored. This is such a cliche by now, do we have to?

Benzene
- How on earth is a protoss going to stop a tank push down the side columns PLEASE don't use this map

Bloody Ridge
- What the hell? Infinite scouting T_T; going to make for a very boring map imo
- Terran turtle on this map is going to be insane to beat imo

Aztec
- Looks solid hopefully this makes it
- Those naturals are going to be hell for Terrans against 2hatch muta though!

Middle Hill
- More free scouting
- Looks like roadrunner meets Un'goro crater - doesn't look promising

Circuit Breakers
- Solid map - kinda like a neo R-point
- Love how the center is constructed, small bridges for easy route and wide ramps for the longer route, nice!

Icarus
- Another Un'goro crater remake lol
- map looks massive o.o
- should be alright for games, nothing too exciting

Empire
- Looks fugly
- looks like a protoss map tbh o.o

Punchbowl
- No... just no...
