Good thing that they brought back the old maps tau cross and peaks. I guess they wanted at least 2 maps that would be guaranteed balance. I was hoping that they'd take out nemesis, but I can't have it all. I really, really can't wait to see some progamer 2v2s on DMZ.

Python looks awesome. Finally a map where you have to truly fight to hang on to your expansions and where strategies will vary wildly depending on starting position. Exciting!

I really look forward to the 2v2 island map acutally. Iron curtain was so fucking sexy.

I'm looking forward to the coming 2v2's this season. I'm really interested to see how tech patterns develop for different races on DMZ, particularly Terran. I think they could've allowed some kind of land route (be it very long or slow to open up) for Chariots, though. I really like that desert semi-island map they were using in 2005 with the mineral walls in the center. I'm not sure how pure islands will work out. But, despite the questionable new 1v1 maps, I'm still pretty excited for PL. Maybe one of these maps will turn out to be a hit!

ROFL these new maps blow so hard.
I guess I sorta like the edits to geometry, but it's still a bad map. With all those ramps, few expos, and there being absolutely no need to use the middle, it's obviously t>p p>z and with no expos to hide in, I'm guessing t>z, but I could be wrong there, those ramps will make lurks strong.
MontyHall is nice. I can't really point out balance because I have no idea how it will play, I think on that map it's up to the players.
Python. ROFL. Someone want to finish the map? Korean mappers aren't stupid, so what idiot made this a pro map? Very little building room, very few expos, and wider than a french prostitute's legs. The island can't be landed on, so I'm assuming t gets raped everytime. z will have a hard time with so few expos, even with the map being so open. I'm sure atleast in same corner positions protoss rapes zerg, and maybe in other pos too.
Nemesis is another shithole of a map. It is zerg hell. few expos and easily landonable islands will favour terran, especially since the large unbuildable t unfriendly middle is fucking useless.
DMZ looks just unplayable. For one, it has no positional balance with those dwebs, and with the multiple entrances really hurts zerg, who can't even enjoy a free nat. On the other hand, early game protoss will have a hard time, until he can defend both entrances. Seems like terran map to me, but I don't know 2v2 balance that well so I could be wrong.
Chariot is just stupid. Someone said hey let's take requiem and make bases in the corners, and then let's leave it empty. Terran will be strong since he can take every single expo, but all three races can easily harass the expos. Terran might have trouble defending an expo with there being 0 chokes. So it's probably another protoss map. What's with the starleague and picking maps they hope protoss to be strong on? Someone who really likes protoss bought the starleague? Mapdori should be ashamed to have these maps representing them.

Broodwarmaps.net's noobs make better maps than these...

Chariot is the same thing as River of Flames, and nobody whined about it.

And if Python is wider than a French prostitute's legs, then wouldn't that contradict your idea of there being "little building space"?

Mapdori is trying to add some flavor to such an old game - give them some credit, FFS. Why don't you make a pro-caliber map? I'm not saying these maps have flaws (all maps do), but you seem to know so much that you can make a PERFECTLY balanced map.
