Seems as frogstar have pathing issues when moving from 7 oclock base to 12 oclock. Units gets stuck at the left center expansion. I think this is pretty crucial as the main path from one main to another is blocked like this.

I have a feeling that none of Freakling maps will be accepted for a sad reason. All ASL maps from last season were somewhat zerg favourable - free 3 bases, gold rush with safe expos at back, gladiator with small bases and lots of high ground.

Both Freakling maps are beautiful and interesting, but at the same time very difficult for zerg. 3rd base on Oxide? Literally impossible vs 5 rax.

3rd base on Frogstar? Well maybe you can get it in other main, but it's very far from main base to reinforce. Also, very big drop potential for 12 and 4 oclock, while 7 is rather safe (again - zerg is going to struggle with holding 3rd or main always). On top of that terran can secure 5 bases with just 2 armies.

So... I expect hosts to select zerg favorable maps again, and none of freakling maps is zerg favour.

they probably don'w want to make individual write-ups for dozens or hundreds of maps that don't even make it on the shortlist.

This is the kind of thing that now can be greatly ameliorated by not changing much about the layout at all, but just some clever manipulation of pathfinding regions. Unfortunately that is also exactly the kind of multi-hour (probably) trial and error job that I simply cannot find the time to do right now. This is why longer deadlines and better communications would be so much needed…
