They took out irrelevant, shitty maps and put in irrelevant, shitty maps!

I'm surprised they even bothered though. I don't think any of the maps are worst at least, lol.

^ Good one. They apparently just have a map rotation, lol.

I just realized they removed Gold Rush from the 4v4 and FFA map-pool. Urgh. I'm fine with the rest going out (everyone almost always immediately left on HI, Slalom was basically turtle-until-frosties, and Friends is an auto-lose depending on who you get partnered up with, but Gold Rush was a pretty good map.

Anyways, is there any reason why Orcs don't typically tri-hero even if they go t3? I was just watching a game where Lyn went BM+SH+TC (granted, against UD), and it struck me that you don't see that very often. I know TC tends to be really, really useless until he hits lvl3 in most cases, but a SH even at lvl1 isn't anything to sneer at if used correctly, so as a third hero, it's not a bad choice. If you're at t3 also, you can expand pretty easily, so that takes care of the upkeep problem. Is the main concern that it's really hard to level up the third hero enough so that the food+resources are worth it?

usually by the time an orc would be t3 there aren't enough creeps left to level that guy up especially on the smaller maps. Usually orc has the strongest T2 so they focus on that, while other races can afford to tech to t3 quicker if they want to do a tri-hero strat. With tri-hero orc it's way better to get TC 2nd then SH but TC 2nd isn't always viable, also when you do get TC you probably want to get him level 5 as level 3 stomp is like broken good vs UD and you need high level shockwave vs dotts so getting a third hero would slow that down. Tri-hero is pretty viable vs UD depending on the map/situation, the only other time orc goes tri-hero is vs Human when you play counter-expand vs Human air, they typically pick up Alchemist 3rd as he has a natural air attack and his bomb has AOE armor reduction is also good vs air.

With WCG coming around, I'm curious; does wcg have a scene outside of china/korea at all? I really like watching the game and don't want to see it die out

I think it's too far gone , but it does give a small breath of life into the scene , and for us casual players of the game.

I would never say wc3 was ever unfun , but the redundant map issue was overshadowed by how awesome the game is :D

Usually with orc you try to end the game when sh hits 3 and bm hits 5. If I remember correctly, you'll be hit at that moment (talon or first sorceress/towers) or you'll hit at that moment (against an ud or Orc v Orc). I think the main concern is that your two first heroes are really really level dependent. You're not a NE that can rely on invocation/spells or an UD with incredible burst with three heroes.
Welp hope i helped u, i could be wrong bc I didnt play in a long time but it was like that in my time :p

The point of Tri-Hero is that they have to complement each other.
That's why human tri-hero is always 1 mage 2 men. Two mage is just lots of useless mana (unless bolt + clap, but that's not effective)
In NE vs OC, the demon prevents shockwave, while the tinker and Beastmaster provide a buffer for the dots.
UD can do the DK,Naga,Lich nuke combo or the DK,Lich, Ranger nuke silence. Ranger prevents healing, making the nuke more effective.
