If those maps are balanced i think this could turn out to be two of the most exciting MSLs and OSLs.

Come on ppl :ooo
This version of Tau Cross is terribly bad. It looks like a map made by total amateur. If they don't fix it, it will be very imbalanced.

I like other maps, but Longinus needs many changes

Tau Cross is the most balanced of them all, plain and simple.

I'm most excited about Blitz, a lot of air fights which is always a fresh thing.

I sense Blitz will have some mmf glitching passed the mineral line in the middle, using rax, like NaDa did at blizzcon.

Those closed-off open areas in Arkanoid (2 at each corner) seems like a waste to me, and the center couldve been more interesting.

Six o'clock on Tau Cross needs to be fixed. The six-mineral expansion is in an inferior position when compared to the other two mains.

Added: PvZ on Blitz: expect at least one Protoss player to proxy gate on the platforms below the natural expansion of either base. I imagine we'll also see a quick reaver build--because the Z can hardly rush--with an expansion to the dual-gas "island" at 12. Beyond that, fast expansion will probably be popular. Most passageways are actually pretty darn narrow, so we might see Ps trying to keep the fight on the ground after their initial expansion, as opposed to corsair/reaver play.

PvT on Blitz will be an enormous, macro-ridden snore. Terrans can get three geysers with incredible ease by choking off the ramp below their natural and the little ramp below the middle expansions. Reaver openings, fast expansions, and early carriers will be popular here. Ps will want to end the game early; Ts will want to end it late.

Arcadia is a great map, so hopefully the changes are very minor. Without an updated picture of Longinus, I can't comment upon it. New Peaks and Arkanoid are too odd to comment upon without playing 19028312 games on them.

I like longinus, definitely going to be zerg and protoss favored I think. Also sounds like LONG ANUS. New peaks seems much more playable.
