How is zerg player going to defend against some sort of 2rax openings against terran on chain reaction? It seems like there is too much space to defend with sunkens :S

I'm drooling to play on sniper ridge.

Does anyone else only see a swastika in the middle of Sniper Ridge? This is a big change from "Shinhan Bear" and Protoss Plains.


yeah, I laughed when I first saw it. plainly it's not a sign associated with mass murder in the far east, but living in Germany it's just an... unexpected sight.

Nonetheless, I expect great games, Bisu, no excuses!!!


in the east the reverse swastika is an ancient buddhist symbol and has been used as such way before adolf came and gave it an negative connotation.

yeah chain reaction and sniper ridge in particular look difficult for toss

I believe it was also a symbol used in some Roman armies, if I'm not mistake.

I'm hoping that these maps can produce some incredible games. That would help to alleviate a lot of misgivings and worries about the uhhh... second half of the year.

this season's theme is backdoor?>_>'

Some of them seem weird but I will look forward to play on all of them.
Are there any download links yet? KeSPA's mapsite doesn't have anything up yet;/

Haha, the first two maps look weird awesome.
I suspect that Zerg will have some problems with sniper ridge, cuz tanks can siege up on the high ground before the natural.

First two look awesome, this Earthattack guy looks like a really good mapmaker. The others seem like pretty standard macro maps for the most part (some interesting things as well). Also lol at the swastika on sniper ridge

The first 3 look absolutely wonderful. Electric circuit makes me think of a combo between Andromeda and Medusa.
It's gonna be awesome. Can't wait.

For me:
Chain Reaction = battle royal (expect zvz only and its removal after first round).
Outlier - looks interesting, tanks will be good here.
Electric Circuit - too many resources which basically means t>>z>>p>>t.
Ground Zero - looks like FS, but again - more resources could lead to the pattern from above.
Jade - looks good, and I see no problems with balance so far.
Sniper Ridge - might be interesting, but too much noise I think. don't know how it will play out.

Overall I think I will like to play most on Jade. Simple maps are best for me.

Disregarding balance completely for the moment.

THESE MAPS LOOK AWESOME

Chain Reaction: My favourite map of the bunch. Looks a bit tight but expo layout is spread out. I want to play it. There's so much room for creativity and looks sooooooo fun.

Outlier: Crazy concept. Who cares if it's balanced or not since it's freakin awesome. Tiny rush paths and a circular expansion pattern. Ho-ly-crap.

Electric Circuit: 4 player Medusa.

Ground Zero: Standard 4 player macro map. More importantly, ASH TILESET!

Jade: Minimalist Byzantium. It might actually be a bit harder for T to secure a third, though with the tiny chokes and highground, it could be fine.

Sniper Ridge: Another standard macro map with the unfortunate sorta-Swastika. I love the ridges. I think they're an underused concept.

Ground zero looks terribly, terribly.

Jade will produce some intense games, but I don't think they will go beyond three bases often... I kinda don't know what to think about it, but it has some kind of mystery, leaving you wander, what a game will look like.

All others look great and promise great a season!
And since there is sooo much twilight, maybe protoss will do well ^_^

Yeeees. Amazing. These maps look like they'll need some new builds, I'm very interested to see how the pros deal with them. Also nice potential for cheesy games too hahaha.

Sniper ridge has a giant nazi symbol in it.
And there are a lot of geysers in all of these maps that require 4 workers to mine optimally.

more like a Buddhist symbol -_-
looks like the mapmaker reworks the concept of Battle Royal and morph it into CR. Hope it doesnt turn out that bad

To be Honest Jade is going to be the map that succeeds CB not Ground Zero as the Reporter from DES says.

Warpgates on Chain Reaction ..

If players move their units to the warpgate, will it teleport it to the other side?? THAT WOULD BE GAME BREAKINGLY AWESOME!

Chain reaction is so weird, and Outlier look like more a SC2 map than a BW one with these pods and constricted areas.
I have to return some videotapes.
