I'm talking about the pro. It would be pretty silly to force them to play maps they don't know, in my eyes.
In my opinion it's better than forcing them to toy around playing offrace. Many good players can adapt to a map almost instantly. Don't you remember the first Blizzcon? I remember they interviewed Nal_rA or Nada and they say they didn't play the maps in advance, yet still came up with very interesting strategies.
I'm not saying that all maps should be different from the usual ones, but one fanmade or oldschool map each TL-Attack wouldn't hurt.

i've always wanted to make a map, maybe now i ha an excuse to waste a couple of hours? i have a couple of (cool) ideas. so if someone know the editor by heart and wants to polish my diamond map, please give me a PM.
but if chill think its a bad idea......

I don't think it would lead instantly to bumbling.
It would require a change in strategy, much more scouting and scouting of a different type.
I've always thought that knowing the entire map before hand took something away from the game, while of course adding other things.

We're not going to make the pros offrace anymore as we're moving TL Attack towards a high-quality-games goal. In keeping with that theme, I doubt we would use community maps, but I guess if there's a demand for it anything's possible.

No love for the mapping community lol.
Personally, I think games on unfamiliar maps are a lot more interesting and show who the better player is more. Someone might have great mechanics on a map because they've played it 5 million times, but on a new map strategy and decision making is higher valued, with the added suspense of not knowing exactly whether it's the best move because it hasn't been played much.
But the only people who agree are people who actually make maps, so I guess there's no point in preaching

I'd like to share with you my map I made recently. It's not my first one, but I think it's quite playable. Please feel free to give me your opinion.

I think that this is a wonderful idea. It would be great fun to see games played on TL content, so to speak. What better way to profile teamliquid even further than to put good use to maps made by people like konadora?
While I can understand see the point of not using user-made maps in a tournament, I still think that it could lead to some interesting games.
