I think yes, but Daedalus is a bit extreme. If the ramp was just a liiiiittle smaller, it'd be better imo. But, it should definitely be left on ladder, people can down ore if they want. Alterzim is blessed terrible for rush play. | ||

Pro players do not want the meta game to become more variant, as Idra said on chanman. It was about Starbow, and he said, never ask pro players about balance. He is right in my opinion. Back to the poll: I would like to have another option: "Do not remove it but bring in more variant maps", e.g. a map where expanding is harder than normal (I am playing Zerg btw.), an air only map like archipelago. Maybe it will encourage all ins for a time, but in the long run it will pay off. SC2's last AddOn is not even out, we need experimenting a lot. As well it would make balancing easier if more meta option would be tried out. Also players with good mechanics would have an advantage over "meta abusers". So, I would like to have a wild jungle of weird maps that are not similar to each other in any way. | ||

If then a like DP hits the map pool, it seems to be a big deal, but in fact it is a too "small" deal. I hope you get me in this point.

They want them to work for the pros but they don't want them to be too different for casual players. I know when I boot up SC 2 there are things that I can do on a map because in my mind there is a standard way maps are designed. | ||
