Some updates, maps were updated to 0.9 for Jane Doe and Attitude. Jane Doe saw the front yard egg removed and ramps changed to north-south ramps rather than diagonal.

Attitude just some natural mineral changes and mining optimizations.

Still waiting on them to fix Match Point so the map is entirely symmetrical. As it stands I don't think keeping the ramps as they are qualifies this as a tournament level map by today's standards.

That Jane doe ramp change was specifically because you could make the scouting worker clip into the marine by sending it back to your own minerals and immediately canceling the command IF you had placed your worker on the far side of the marine on the ramp relative to your own base. This would make it "mineral" walk into the marine, and if canceled, the game would force BOTH units to move. This effectively made the marine+medic block completely useless.

This MP is so terran that im expecting minimum 3 terrans in ASL semis.

And this is me without seeing FlaSh playing lol.

You can see Royal/ Rush / Barracks are so buffed.

actually funny as fuck, its like Terrans are someones favourite child and if they have to live one more season without winning ASL they're going to commit mass suicide

just look at the map WRs LOL

Neo Sylphid
overall: (54.8%)
TvZ: 892 wins, 619 losses (59.0%)
TvP: 907 wins, 862 losses (51.3%)

Pole Star
overall: (59.1%)
TvZ: 636 wins, 418 losses (60.3%)
TvP: 443 wins, 329 losses (57.4%)

Knock Out
overall: (55.1%)
TvZ: 259 wins, 212 losses (55.0%)
TvP: 182 wins, 147 losses (55.3%)


and really it's not like ANY of the newly added maps look bad for Terran

if there was a single season of maps which were anywhere close to being this Zerg favoured, we'd see multiple progamers stop playing

wish they'd just take classic maps and remaster them for the modern day - i would love to see something like peaks of baekdu or ride of valkyries reimagined for modern play.

edit: a lot of concepts that were submitted in the new worlds map contest a few years ago would be perfect.

Metropolis yes.

Metropolis is far better than Retro in the sense that the main/nat layouts give a lot more play to mutalisks, as well as right outside the natural. Metropolis's center also feels more dynamic than Retros which gives more flanking and counter play to Zerg.

Metropolis is just a dogshit map for Protoss at top levels. 45% PZ and 41% PT. Not entirely sure the reason for such a bad PZ matchup, my guess is that 1-1 pushes are super strong because of the chokes. PT is bad because Terran takes the center as a 4th base and once they set up tanks there, Protoss can't move around the edges because of how the map layout is without taking significant losses.

Retro is actually a super balanced map outside of ZvT. All the other matchups are within 2.5%. It's possible if we ever get a 2.0, we could look to make the mineral lines more vulnerable at the naturals for muta harass. Not sure what else the map needs after that but that would be a good place to start.
