You guys should cheer to this wonderful news instead of judging the quality (which is still way better than, say, Inferno Pools) It's not completely terrible, and at least it's a different map in whats going to be all ladder pool tournaments again. for that reason I won't put to much criticism on it. the only problems with this map is that it's a better deadwing, in a map pool that still has deadwing On December 31 2014 19:34 Phaenoman wrote: I have to agree with Meerel here to a certain extend. Like a lot of other praised maps, this is very poorly done in terms of creativity and execution. Lotsa ppl here look at the creator's name rather than the work itself, including blizzard. That's a shame. I think a bigger problem is how gom seems to be just randomly taking in korean maps without much thought. | ||

And unfortunately that's our main issue with all those maps and ppl/ blizzard judging. | ||

Vote results of TLMC said everything:you guys just simply dont like interesting maps Even as someone who doesn't browse the map forums often, I really really like Foxtrot and don't like Deadwing at all. At least of a casual low level player like me, I don't understand the mentality of wanting to play the same thing over and over again. Might as well just play a MOBA if you want only one map  For pros its a bit different, because they need to have near perfect understanding of a map nearly instantly or they're career suffers, but at the lower level I'm into trying new things. Not bad maps, but different ones. | ||

They should be able to put in time into understanding completely how a map works and, by doing so, gain a slight advantage. Although I don't believe that one should be required to completely relearn strategy to play a map too often (see  Monty Hall). | ||

The layout overall is pretty boring. The Back paths by the 3rds aren't that interesting and the middle is boring. | ||
