Didn't WCG use a lot of old/bad maps because they weren't smart enough tofigure out which maps are actually good?

Like they tried that one Island map all the time iirc o-o

Also in SC2 WoL we saw a few remakes of BW maps, so maybe in HotS we see remakes(with slight alterations) of WoL maps?

I would love this so much, just to see how broken some of them would be in the current meta :D

yes (for WCG) that s why I think Luna was reused there.
Usually the maps were not updated from one WCG to the next (or rarely), despite the complaints of the referees before the tournaments and the players during it...

faster Armor for vikings/medivacs maybe, so the phoenix don't kill them too quickly

Armor upgrades REALLY help against phoenix, its 2 shots of very low damage.

Wtf is up with this phoenix fever in PvT?

It is pretty safe earlier on (like vs drops like widow mine drops, and just generally pretty safe), so you usually don't loose to worse players which you can with a lot of the Protoss builds.

Also it hasn't been used a whole lot lately, so it is stronger than usual now since Terrans have to get used to it again (with lately I mean b4 this Code S season btw).

It will probably fade away again once Terran gets really good at dealing with it, and then come back once people aren't as comfortable against it anymore.
