With Freakling going through the maps with a fine tooth comb and after a near 3 hour conferencing session yesterday we have decided on our finalists. Creators will have 1 month to edit their maps to fix any issues that Freakling has found (will need you all to join his discord which I will add a link to once I have it). Once this 1 month period has passed we will then open up the final versions of the maps to public map testing wherein we will decide which maps make it into STPL Season 4.

A huge thanks to Freakling who has helped an incredible amount with this. I learned more about maps during that call than I think I ever would have without and while I meme myself as the map man Freakling really knows everything you could possibly know about maps and it's very clear why and how he's such an amazing map maker.

How were these entries chosen?
We looked at every map with a fine tooth comb using scmdraft checking for any issues. Freakling did a deep analysis previously and just took me through the issues and what problems they could cause/how easy they would be to fix. As the timing of the contest gives only one month for fixes, anything judged too far away from completion was removed as Freakling believes there wouldn't be enough time to, in some cases redesign the way the map worked.

One thing we checked to see is if a map had a clear vision and ideas that worked together. Anything we felt was somewhat cobbled together or a missmatch of various ideas we ruled out for the same reasons as above. A few maps were also very similar to the ones we have put through so in cases like this we took the one we felt was the better of the two, not to say that the similar ones were bad either!

We had some other very, very good submissions that didn't make it through and while I would've liked to include all the good maps here in the finals we decided to keep the number lower in order to give the ones we did pick more breathing room and the creators more time/chance to make their maps as perfect as they can.

-Opened middle vision a bit (took out few rows of anti vision doodads)
-Added backdoor path to 11 / 5 oclock expands.

Maps are fantastic. Hope ZZZero brings some of these to BSL as well.

Also hope Blizzard considers a few for the new seasons as well.

Desert Dweller, Paradise, Charmander --> these can easily be in some tournament map pool, imo. Really interesting and well done! Can't wait to see some games on them

big thanks for this contest, lads.

Can someone explain to me why Tear of Goddess isn't essentially just Luna?

Anyway, great looking maps!

I have some questions about Atlantis (n).Dear freekling, Hello! I'm a map writer of StarCraft. I like to make 128x128 size maps of jungle terrain. Recently, I paid attention to your map named Atlantis (n). However, I found that I couldn't open it with the latest alpha scmd editor. Maybe it was encrypted for the sake of map security, but I was deeply attracted by the terrain you drew in the map This map is really wonderful and exquisite. If I have a chance to get this map that can be edited, I believe it will improve my ability of war map. So I take the liberty to ask for your opinions. Can I borrow your map to open my eyes? A request from a map fan author who has been following you for a long time in the ASL competition.
