We are about to have new map pool from new season
Let's look again previous map pools:
2020 Season 1 14/02 (dd/mm)
(2) Hitchhiker 1.2
(2) New Bloody Ridge
(3) Neo_Sylphid 2.0
(4) La Mancha 1.1
(4) Escalade
(4) Fighting Spirit 1.3
(4) Circuit Breakers 1.0
2020 Season 2 29/05
(2) Eclipse
(2) Match Point
(3) New Sylphid
(3) Reap the Storm
(4) Polypoid
(4) Fighting Spirit
(4) Circuit Breakers
2020 Season 3 09/10
(2) Benzen
(2) Eclipse
(3) Plasma
(4) Circuit Breakers
(4) Polypoid
(4) Ringing Bloom
(4) Fighting Spirit
2021 season 1 10/02
(2) Benzen 1.1
(2) Eclipse 1.2
(3) Plasma 1.0
(4) Optimizer 1.0
(4) Polypoid 1.6
(4) Ringing Bloom SE 2.0
(4) Shakuras Temple 1.1
In a year, Eclipse x3, Polypoid x3, Benzen x2, Plasma x2. These maps really good to play so much? If they are good, whether maps are better?
Eclipse, Terran is so hard to take 3rd. Polypoid looks like Gladiator, just marco. Benzen was made to kill Terran player by Zerg and Protoss. Plasma is vetoed by everyone (except me).
All season since 25/07/2018
Benzene has played 3 times
Heart Break Ridge has played 3 times
Neo Sylphid has played 3 times
I wish these maps come in the next time:
(2) Monty Hall
(2) Forbidden City
(3) Pathfinder
(4) Forte
(4) Ultimate Stream
(4) Good Night
(4) Lemon

If someone were to modernize forbidden city it would probably be cool. Right it leads at least one more gas base for each player.
Also, just off the top of my head, I think Ascension should definitely be added to the map pool, and Polypoid should remain or be replaced with GOODNIGHT.

we will get whichever maps are in tthe ASL map pool at the time..
that's why they started using FS again..

mirroring the asl pool is the most sensible approach

I think they could keep Eclipse, Sylphid and Polypoid as the core and rotate the rest, perhaps by copying ASL. They should also make the minimap semi-transparent to encourage people to try the new maps. :-)

Copying the ASL map pool for ladder doesn't make sense since ASL maps tend to be one-trick ponies and/or novelty acts with their own gotchas.
Best would be to have a stable core of maps for a year (Polypoid, Eclipse and some other) and then rotate some other new or old maps in.
Ladder should have 0 maps of the Neo Medusa/Plasma/Sparkle kind. That's what customs are for.

How do you know they will change mappool ?They didnt fix the scv glitch and didnt reset the season for almost 6 months.I think remastered is dead honestly.

They should honestly just give the reins to the ShieldBattery team...

Agreed. What next maps? Lol
|
They did change the map pool for the new season. They just took the ASL maps. So that's the 1 thing they have done.
|
I do not like the maps you suggested. Terran imba imaps.
|
|
|
Yeah Polypoid, Sylphid and maybe Circuit Breaker/Eclipse should be the core 3 and rotate the rest with ASL maps.
|
I like this map

I would love to have back Destination, Tau Cross or Longinus.
But I think the smart choice would be to mirror the ASL mappack
