Imo you guys should do a iCCup Neo Xel'naga Caverns, removing the back path to the natural and making only one entrance to the nat have it be tighter ;o

Yeah, should definitely mod it a bit to remove some of the indiscrepancies.

I really like Xel'Naga, but as mentioned before, there is a major imbalance in Main Base positioning there as well.

An ICCup retro-fit that fixes that issue should be enough.

Playing with Z on iCCup Matchpoint convinced me that TvZ is nothing more than a map problem (dont want so start a balance discussion)

Thumbs up for this pool

From watching the GSL today, I desperately want to see ICCUP maps in the standard tournament mappool. Gonna grab a mate and try these maps out, hoping for the best.

Metal close positions is horrible

I feel for zergs everywhere when they come against ZvX on that map in close positions (i.e. not by air).

I like how we can't find 2 maps in Blizzards map pool that we can deem suitable for play. Metalopolis is the common consensus for balance and it turns out to be macro oriented and the most well liked map.

I've seen a lot of these on the stream... good stuff. I assume you guys are keeping track of win % for each matchup uring the tournaments right?

I'd really like to see a couple of these mixed in to be the standard in the future. The best part is if there's a gimic or expoit that is discovered that maybe one race gains an advantage down the road, it can be easily updated.

remakes of old starcraft maps is the last thing sc2 needs. no problem with the new maps, but no remakes - especially with some more recent maps like fighting spirit or match point. lt was understandable since kind of THE map that defines sc2, but not some korean pro-maps that lasted only 2-3 seasons, besides the fact that you can't really know if these map-layouts fit to sc2 changed gameplay.

I played on a few of the maps yesterday, loved them! Can't wait to see some of these in more tournaments

For all the people asking for maps on SEA, KOR, etc servers, we currently do not have any accounts to publish with on those servers. If you would like to donate some of your slots please PM prodiG on TL.

THANK YOU again everyone for all the feedback, I'm going to be contacting every major organization including GOM about this pool. You guys all rock

Does this map slot restriction apply to setting up maps on the NA servers as well? If so, I'd be more than happy to donate some of my slots. Just a friendly offer. =)

I think we are good on NA slots being none of mine have even been used yet. I believe we don't have accounts on SEA, KOR, Russia, and LA. I'll double check with prodiG though.

Although slots are limited, any chance in seeing some BO Hider versions up for private practice?

Is any of this stuff on the iccup site anywhere? I looked and didn't even see an SC2 section let alone where to find this map pool.

We are going to have it all hosted on www.iCCup.tv as soon as the site redesign is done.

One thing I would like to see is a map like scrap station with the whole U layout (close air far ground). if it can be balanced of course.

Any plans to make a map like that?
