Lol. That's actually hilariously on target with how I was thinking. I loved those maps because of his games on them. While he did lose on Sniper Ridge it would have been nice to see how he adjusted to win on the map. So lately I've been playing on it a lot to see how protoss should be played. I actually really like it for some reason.

Rofl, that was a joke because of your name. I think the map is kinda interesting, but honestly lurker contain seem really good ZvP. I've won some pretty retarded game vs protoss where I'd lose tons of drones to zealots/DTs, but he coulnd't break the contain. And the progames were often like that too.
You are brave kind sir^^

i love FS. very balanced map, though it kinda hinders zergs.

other maps i suggest using are Circuit Breakers, Destination, La Mancha, Grandline, Match Point, and others. very balanced maps.

maps to avoid: python. fuck python. tbh its a really bad map for the current metagame though i dont know why people still insist on playing on it. -.-

The most shitty map is Destination. If you want to get cheesed 99% of your games, go play on it!

I focus pretty heavily on Reaver play vsZ on this map. Obs+Reavers is pretty powerful. But lurker contains are no laughing matter.

I don't like this logic. The "current metagame" is not something set in stone tables, you are supposed to adapt to the map you are playing. I think the only valid complaint is if the map is significantly imbalanced racially.

Agreed. But here's the question: Are there any map makers left that the community would actually use maps from? Or if some1 fairly unknown like me made a perfectly balanced awesome map, would people ever try playing it?

Yea, I agree with everyone who says fuck you to FS and Pythong (god TvP on Python is almost imbalanced, the only thing you can do is some timing push and if it fails pray to god, if you don't believe in one, too bad, you lose).

Longinus ftw.

As many people have already said, FS is very balanced and very standard. No weird and funky features, just a very normal map on which you can pull of the cookie cutter strats without having to worry to much about cutesy shit. Personally I consider it one of the best maps of all time, some of the best games I've ever seen was played on it, and I love to play on it meself.
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.

It's considered the most standard map and pretty well balanced (iccup stats), both by Koreans and Foreigners. It provides a ramp and a close by, relatively easy to take/defend third with a somewhat open middle and circular path. It's a 4 player map so it has plenty of expos, but it isn't huge or too small as some maps. It's symmetrical except the middle and some natural's minerals lines (and the bottom left main is annoying as fuck to build stuff in). Plus the natural choke isn't as weird or big as on some maps (Python I'm looking at you).

It was a normal, straight-up map after a bunch of witty maps that had non-standard features, so my guess is people jumped on it when it came out and stayed there. It's popular like once LT, Python or maybe Luna used to be, so most people play on it.

On iccup specifically, there are MOTW (maps of the week) that provide 30 (or 30% don't know exactly) more points if you play on them with the antihack on - so if FS is in that week's MOTW it's probably played a lot of times.


Which season are the stats from?

Are you a masochist or do you only see zerg at your level ? Or maybe you're excellent at fending off 10/15 and bulldog ?

It's boring in PvZ, because one side will often just take more than half the map, and defend it until the other side runs out of money. A more exciting standard map is Dante's peak. We should all migrate to Dante's Peak!

Yeah it is a good map..

awesome even I agree..

but it is play way.. WAAAAAY too much T_T

jesus christ this map is everywhere..

just like Destination in 2009/2010

and Python..

im slowly getting sick of it..

If I just could host games on Iccup I would play this map rather rarely

i wished desti was still played.

there are so many good maps we yust tend to forget them i geus.

but to anwsers op's question is becouse it is the most balanced and fun to play map for alot of people.

btw have you tried out my guide aswell? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=359706

Destination was fun TvP, 9/10 games protoss built their base in your base.
if you survived past that, turtle for 40 minutes till protoss ran out of money and you won.

good times

Oh man, trying to play mech TvZ on desti was the shit.
Just slowly creep up towards the other side with tanks and turrets and watch Zerg throw away their army on the bridges.
