A only one vote. :X Voted for Othello though because I liked the map in BW a lot. I never played on Katrina unfortunately but the map looks quite interesting right now (despite being very imba in bw^^).

Information Repost:

So as I hinted to, Bel'Shir Beach and Starlight Breaker will be removed from the map pool. Neither because of balance, Bel'Shir messes with our casters computer, and Starlight really could use some touch up to be an optimal map, which is not on our agenda right now.

So as you may not have seen we have released four new maps today, our Anniversary Pack (AE). Here's the thread.

My question to you is which maps should we implement first? We do plan on rotating in and out all 4 over time, but will probably start with just 2.

Poll: Which map are you most excited/want to see?

iCCup Katrina AE (27)

50%

iCCup Othello AE (12)

22%

iCCup Sanshorn Mist AE (11)

20%

iCCup Sungsu Crossing AE (4)

7%

Wowow, this tourney is actually sick, definitely deserves more viewers. Get to see a wide variety of maps and all the gosu koreans who can't seem to make it into GSL playing amazing games. and Orb <3. Only suggestion for improvement would be to maybe get a regular co-caster (although Orb is more than good enough already) and to try and sort out the replay issues with some of the other top players.

Gogo ICCup :D

Woow, I'm soo glad to hear you will use all 4 of those super awesome maps. All 4 are very different with very unique styles so I really want to see every one of them played.

If I really have to decide I would like to see Katrina (so unique) and Sanshorn Mist (finally nice aesthetics, overall great 2 spawn macro map and islaaands <3 + Blizz seems to hate 2 spawn maps looking at their new ladder map pool, so you show them how it's done).

edit: TT now I voted for sungsu cause sungsu and sanshorn both start with "s" :D

These new maps with a return of raelcun to cast with orb would land me in blissful heaven.

Code A qualifiers are tues-weds next week, I presume a delayed weekly is related to that since many of the regular contenders for this are players in Code B, and obviously you want to focus a lot on the qualifiers and you don't want to show anyone a new build ^^

That said it could just be iCCup guys are busy this week, it is MLG afterall =)

A little bit of both. Participation is low on Code A/B weeks, and we <3 MLG.

Also voting is still open so make your voice heard on the new maps!

Since they just mentioned this on GSL I figured might shoot a quick update. Got some behind the scenes stuff going on.

I will have dates for Weeks 7 & 8 and Finals #2 in the next day or so. I know there is a schedule in the OP, but we are making some changes to accommodate what we are working on.

Whoops the GSL shoutout just reminded me I forgot to update this. There is no weekly this week due to a conflict with WCG Korea.

It ended up working out with Blizzcon China Qualifiers being this week however, we would have had to delay the cast anyways.

So sorry!
