I'm glad the PTR's back up so I can practice terran and toss without worrying about my ranking though. | ||

 Can someone upload them into normal servers so we can try it out? | ||

TestMap1 - Close posistions short rush distance. No accesable 3rd - Close by air Terran can elevator siege tanks. 3rd easily defended - Cross posistions should be fine TestMap3 - Close positions short rush distance 2/3 of spawns (build barracks and float to 3rd for super close rally if T spawns 11 or 5). 3rd very hard to defend. Gold impossible to defend, maybe with PF. - Cross posistions Terran drops PF on gold and sits army at natural ramp... - Overall Natural looks very hard to defend with 3 possible entrances. TestMap2 - Seems the best overall, hard to see specifics. Again 3rd is going to be very hard to defend. TestMap4 - No 3rd except gold...LOL - Natural is WIDE open - Terrible Map TestMap5 - Close posistions short rush distance. No accesable 3rd - Close by air (shorter rush distance when you take down rocks, I'm thinking reaper opening (1 or 2) to marauders is going to be quite good here) - If there were no rocks in the back (just wall or open air) I think this map is decent in air/cross spots. | ||

New LT and map 2 are great though. Map 3- Too many destructible rocks.. close positions are wayyyyy too close. Map 5- Impossible to forge FE on almost.. encourages 4 gates in pvz. | ||

All map spawn position combinations are possible. A lot of people are neglecting to mention how much wide open spaces these maps have for flanking. Also, the rush distances on all maps are pretty decent before any rocks are broken down. I only see a potential problem in map 5 with reapers ignoring the 2 destructable rocks directly to the opponents mineral line, and lifted off barracks from the main to opponents main or in between the destructable rocks. | ||

Test map1 will obviously replace Lost Temple. Test map2 seems to be new. Test map3 seems to be a new Blistering Sands. Test map4 seems to be a new Delta Quadrant. Test map5 seems to be new. 3 probably replaces, hopefully one of the other 2 will replace steppes of war as well. | ||
