Basically - the title.
I'm already tired of the same maps for 6+ months. The previous time they updated the ladder pool was a few weeks after the new season began.
Not this time, tho.
ASL is right around the corner, and the maps there look like they are patched enough and fairly balanced for what they are. Does anyone have suggestions on how we can make blizzard act on this topic?

I guess ladder players will not like a new season when the final patch of the map pool has not finished yet. A single mineral piece is placed wrong spot just one pixel at 3rd base which will change result of the games.

There is always about 2-3 weeks between ladder reset and map update to include the new ASL map. So my expectations would be somewhere next week~ lunar new year may have affected things too

based on past seasons, it should be soon. Last year it was at the end of February. The ladder itself seems to reset by default on February 1, and August 1? But the maps then need to changed by hand. And as Baal has said, the current ASL maps aren't in their final versions.

Hellbound isn't in a 1.x version yet, so one may think that it isn't final. But who knows.

Match point and sylph back in 2026... What a time to be alive. Then what? Luna and Azalea 2027?
So i d expect this map list +poly or radeon for the ladder mappool?
|
If they don't change it within the next couple of weeks the only reliable way to get them to do anything is to contact scarlet who appears to have some sort of contact in modern blizzard. But for the past couple seasons they have been pretty good at changing the map pool themselves before each ASL season, so I expect an update soon.
