If you are looking to switch up the map pool i have created two 2v2 maps that are polished - here and here . I'd love to get feedback from peeps who are knowledgeable about team games. | ||

Just 1 announcement! The map pool will now be changing weekly. Every week there will be a poll with 3 maps currently in the map pool to decide which one gets removed, and another poll with new 3 maps to decide the replacement. Maps will be eligible to be removed based on their tournament use (maps played more often in the tournament are safer), the amount of time they've been in the map pool (to ensure a fresh pool), and other factors (statistical imbalance/degeneracy, very short average tournament-game length, no longer being in the bnet ladder, etc). The polls for this week should be up tonight! | ||

I've pmed couple of the map makers from this thread to get their permission and to make sure they get the map hosted on NA. The options for the poll to pick the replacement map will be from there. If the map makers don't get back to me quickly enough for the poll, we'll also include the new maps blizzard added for the season 8 ladder. | ||

For reference on the ground/air distances: The Ruins of Tarsonis [ground main-to-main = 46.3 units], The Boneyard [close position ground main-to-main = 39.8 units], Twilight Fortress [ground main-to-main = 54.0 units] Map #1 - Kuihtuneet (by SiskosGoatee, published on NA by Oogkasje) + Show Spoiler [pictures and information] + Total Expansions: 20 Ground Distance (main-to-main): 62.3 units Air Distance (main-to-main): 61.1 units This is a huge and really sexy looking map that really pushes defender's advantage by forcing the aggressive team to commit to attacking one side early on. It also caters to different expansion path styles by having 1 normal expo on one side and then an expo+a 6m1rg expo on the other side. There aren't many open spaces but there are a lot of run-by options. TL Thread Link ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/kUcXT.jpg) (permission for use under CC BY-SA 3.0) Map #2 - Curious Journey (by GFire) + Show Spoiler [pictures and information] + Total Expansions: 14 Ground Distance (main-to-main): 61.5 Air Distance (main-to-main): 49.6 A really interesting take on the design of the mains, with a couple of open spaces and quite a few run-by options. GFire is working on a polished version of this map right now. If this map gets the top vote but he isn't able to get it up on NA by Friday night so everyone can test it, we'll go with the 2nd place map this week and put this map back in the vote for next week. TL Thread Link ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/d85q0.jpg) Map #3 - Bel'Shir Marquee (by TheFish7, published on NA by TheFish) + Show Spoiler [pictures and information] + Total Expansions: 12 Ground Distance (main-to-main): 66.5 units Air Distance (main-to-main): 46.7 units A classic shared-base design with a couple of run-by paths and fairly exposed expansions. The rush distance is pretty long here and destructible rocks slow any early timing attacks. There are two large open spaces on either side of the central bridge and side run-by paths can be blocked at key chokes with buildings.

It looks like a professional 1v1 map adapted for 2v2s They all look good, but I agree that Kuihtuneet looks very nice :D Also, unless it's general praise like locopuyo gave, please keep any criticisms or in-depth discussions in the TL threads I linked in each map's description. This thread isn't a place to debate the design of the maps since we've got a couple of those threads already just for 2v2. | ||
