Block Chain looks interesting. And the other two are 3 player maps. Hopefully they will turn into interesting games.

BlockChain looks awesome, I like Gold Rush and like that this concept is brought back.
I live in Russia. I wear the fufaika, valenoks and the shapka-ushanka with the red star. I drink vodka straight from the samovar, and my riding bear plays on the balalaika.

Block Chain kinda looks dull, too much spam thus looks like there's little area for battle, although good macro games potential and really liked backdoor options. Whiteout looks nice but hope those trees won't become problem like was on Demon's Forest.

looks like a nightmare to get a 3rd on whiteout.

will be an interesting map if the games don't just end in 2 base all ins, tho.

@Jukado: You need to upload the pictures to imgur, Naver links expire after a while.

If only these new maps didn't look again as if they'd really profit from some more time to really work out the kinks. It makes me wonder again by which principles they decide on new maps.

Block Chain looks very plain. It's basically a four player adaption of Gold Rush, only without any good ground expansions, so TvP will probably become very hard from midgame onwards. Why does it seem that Earthattack can only reiterate the same basic concept (Outsider derivatives) time and time again for the last almost ten years now? I don't know.

Whiteout (by Str18-02) brings us vision blocker spam. To calm Outscar down: No, vortices will not be a problem here since, unlike on Demon's Forest, the vision blocked areas here are fully walkable (they do not provide cover either).
New ramps are still buggy, and so is ice terrain in general, so some more editing is required to get rid of some terrain level bugs. Apart from that terrain editing is actually sound, mechanic-wise, for a change (albeit a bit wonky looking and far from fleshed out aesthetically). The layout seems basically alright, but some of those dead highground spaces are huge (and more so at some positions), so Carriers might be very strong here. I only feel like the expansions might be a bit too much clustered around certain areas. Those centre expansions only have 2000 gas per geyser. So they are basically meant to provide a short gas boost before securing a "proper" third gas base. Will be interesting to see whether that's enough for all races in all matchups (could be hard particularly in PvZ, I guess).
There's a Reaver jam spot in the left centre region.

Sylphid 1.8 is basically the same. Most noticeable change is the reduction of the naturals' minerals to the standard 7 patches. There's still some weird buggy terrain level editing behind the top/bottom naturals.

Anyway, the fact that the new maps still have sum 1.00 version numbers means that they are probably still completely untested and significant changes might be made to them. Not sure when ASL7 is going to start from the top of my head, but it's not going to be before January, so for a change Afreeca actually managed to not compromise proper testing and finishing of the maps by announcing them in the last possible minute this time, so that's good too.

Blockchain seems pretty neat. With there being no easy 2 way mineral hopping, it should allow for a bit more strategic play that was hampered by the early game perfect scouting on gold rush. I can see there being some real diversity in how games play out on it.

Any news on what the fourth map will be, and is there any chance we might get to see at least one of these on the ladder map pool?

Those are just the standard new ramps from patch 1.22. The artwork is generally rather meh, unfortunately.

For whiteout I'd suggest that instead of the conifer-like tree doodads interspersed on the vision-blocked areas a thicker carpet of the two flimsy bare tree doodads be used (and/or maybe some bare trees from Badlands/Jungle tilesets) lest units cannot be hidden completely behind them. With extended sprite limits (or even the standard 500 map sprite limit) that should be no problem and would make for much better aesthetics.
