Bring Sylphid back, keep Poly and Eclipse, this way we have a standard map for each type of map.

i hate ultimate stream with a passion, aside from that solid suggestions.

I also like Zakrom s idea of keeping a set of standard maps (esp for 3 players maps, so few are good, just keep sylphid and go 2 or 4 player maps).

I suspect if we get a new season Blizz will make it a mirror of the ASL maps like they did with the current map pool but I'll make one anyways

Polypoid
Eclipse
Neo Sylphid
Ascension
Polaris Rhapsody
Good Night
Lemon

Poly/Eclipse/Sylphid - all are proven from several seasons of ladder and ASL to be solid new age maps that most people enjoy
Ascension - cool design with the throwback to blue storm but without the frustration, feels good to play on and has shown us some great ASL games and sponmatches. this and Sylphid are both 3p but play very differently which warrants having them both included
Polaris Rhapsody - puts in a 2nd 2p map that is very different from Eclipse, keeps it fresh
Good Night - promising new ASL12 map
Lemon - non standard new ASL12 map. it's a good decision to have 1 experimental map in the map pool if the map pool itself is good enough that after 3 vetoes most of the playerbase is still satisfied with the remaining maps. this doesn't work with Plasma in the current map pool, but Lemon should work in this one

I really don't like Lemon. The concept itself could be interesting, but the execution feels lazy. It feels like they pretty much added extra resources to the main, made it small and then left the rest of the map just nothing.

there is a forest in the middle around the base.. wouldn't call that nothing.

it's a very interesting concept map

Call me old fashioned (i mean i have wgt in my name so...) but while i find it good for asl to have funky new maps, I prefer "normal" maps for ladder given the seasons are so long. If it rotated every 2 months sure, but now who wants to play plasma still? Ringing bloom s also not great, benzene s proxy paradise.
Odds are the next experimental map may be fun for a month, then it ll fade and every one will ban it,.it s a waste

personally I will play anything but FS on ladder, but I do agree that having Poly/Eclipse/Sylphid together for one rotation would make a lot of sense. Other than that I think Good Night is an obvious choice. Other than that I don't really care, just change the ladder maps more often...

Hoping for a classical map pool. This season is too modern so oldschoolers don’t want to learn the new maps. I hear Polypoid is like thew new Fighting Spirit. I hope they have that, Fighting Spirit, Blue Storm, Katrina, and Python.

my guess would be they re focusing everything on the diablo 2 remaster now, and we might get a new season after that

Are we actually getting a new season? We're overdue by almost 2 months based on season length history
That said I would love to see

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.


No one trick ponies this season. Even lemon isn't THAT crazy.
