This season, we have the best map pool ever for 5 past years

I veto 0 map and never veto any maps in all seasons.

I know result of game belongs to skill (me and opponent). It doesn't relate to map, race, matchup... so much. You can veto maps but you can't veto your skill.

Map is one of things that I love in StarCraft. I like to see how/concept/idea/detail/imagine/symbol/special things on maps.

I think many people always use their 3 vetoes and they feel 3 is too less. If they have 7 the one, they will use all, the truth is so weird for me.

IT'S ABOUT 3 MONTHS LEFT, WE WILL HAVE PLAYED ON THIS SEASON ONE YEAR. I DON'T THINK ONE SEASON EVERY YEAR IS GOOD!

i don't veto maps either. i don't play ladder to win, i play to get better. it doesn't really make sense to veto maps in that context.

people always try to come up with some bizarre twisted scrub honor logic about it being better to learn on standard maps but lol come on man

I veto 2 maps, the experimental map that hits ladder, and Tesagi FS

We are going to have to go to the B.net forums and beg for a new map pool once the new ASL maps are decided

I veto FS cause cba playing on the same map for 15 years.
This season I vetoed polypoid and eclipse, not because they are bad, but because they have been around for too long.
When we still got multiple seasons per year, I didn't veto anything besides FS.
I guess it is once again time for us to beg blizzard to change the pool again. Idk why they don't copy & paste ASL pools. Would be two seasons per year. 3 vetoes are more than enough to veto the crazy ASL maps for those who don't wanna play them. Personally, I'd love to have 76 in the ladder pool!

Past 4 seasons I just use 1 veto for FS. If Polypoid gets in the pool again next season, it's time to veto that too.

Other than that, I really like map variety and agree with OP that learning how to play new maps, or a variety of maps, is a big part of what makes BW fun for me.

Yeah it is true that we should have 2 seasons per year. I would agree to change it to asl maps only, for a while at least. It’s high time for a new season now.

I perma veto FS every time, and sometimes use a second veto if there is a map i don't enjoy playing on (nemesis currently, sometimes Butter when i m tired of defending proxy 2 gates) but usually I play everything but FS.

Problem is Blizzard cant roll a season without breaking something, so i d rather they had a larger mappool (may be 5 veto then? whatever i dont use them) and just leave it be with periodic resets and no map changes.

Current ASL maps are problematic because most of them are incomplete and keep getting major patches as they go, but blizzard would just use the first version and we d have possibly broken maps for months/a year.
