EPTi'm sure someone has mentioned it, but it seems like staff and public votes [except for Cloud Kingdom] are polar opposites in some cases, Korhal compound is 1 and 7 respectively, Burning alter 3 and 6, and havens lagoon 6 and 3.

It's the most complicated high level 2p map I have ever seen but it's brilliant and also aesthetically unique.I noticed that Twilight Peaks was pretty imba and in a way bad design some time ago so I'm not at all surprised to see it last in the staff vote  But I (as others) have learned and improved since then and will keep making better maps.I rly wish the public poll didn't have such a big impact. I feel the opinion of most of the community... well... can't really be trusted. I don't understand how Burning Altar can be 3rd in staff vote and don't make top5 :/ I hope this INCREDIBLE middle design will inspire other maps in the future. Well, whether the public can "be trusted" or not, the TL community is not all about expert mapmakers and expert progamers. And in reference to Burning Altar, a lot of us public spectators witnessed some serious Terran abuse of those ledges near the third (the game vs Destiny) and I wasn't impressed how close the high ground was to the other expansion--the action gravitated to that point and that point was close enough that a tank could shell a hatchery/CC/Nexus. tl;dr The public can't be trusted is a maxim that favors elites and experts. Most of the elites and experts I know are equally as flawed and biased as the public. In fact, they are a part of the public. | ||
