still, it's hilariously sad that this is what it takes to implement the smallest of changes for this game..

veto campanella and invader and you're left with pretty standard maps. sucks that vermeer is out though, was my favorite modern (4) map along with allegro

Veto count is hardcoded at 3 in the client (and maybe on their server as well) so at the very least you'd be asking people to learn a lot more maps than previously. It's very possible there is other logic that is hardcoded to the current map pool size as well, it's just less easily accessible than their veto UI so I am not gonna put in the work to figure that out.

No FS or Sylphid? Expect more cheese on the ladder from casual players who don't want to learn all the new maps.
If only we could see the expansions and mineral patches on the minimap like you can on ShieldBattery...

I think they just finished the update and apparently we have a pool with 9 maps. 7 ASL maps + FS and Vermeer. Best of both worlds really.

La Campanella, Tempest and Invader to be banned mostly for sure.

Good that they replaced those bad maps with good ones. Retro/Neo Dark origin/Poly 1.75 are far better than those outdated. Sylphid was abysmal ~30% win rate for zergs and FS was very oudated with left side mineral structures

Nice to finally have a new map pool!

Awesome thanks Scarlett!!!

Can't really complain about this map pool, you have FS, Polypoid, Vermeer, Retro and 2 other 4 player maps as standard maps. Maybe Sylphid could have been inside but that's just nitpicking. You also have new maps for players who are bored of the old ones.

As a Terran player the 2 player maps are auto-vetoed though lol
