Been confirmed by other people. Just SEA at the moment, other should be updated later. Unless blizzard is doing local test before

I just don't get what Blizzard is thinking. Let me explain how ladder map changes has to be done.

Ladder has 9 maps with 3 veto. So how should new maps to be added to ladder? By changing/replacing 4-5 maps (always more than veto option) to force players to play those maps. Now players can easily veto new maps because they don't know/like maps.

Yet again I am referring WC3 ladder map pool changes, same thing happened. 1-2 maps was changed, everyone/most vetoed those maps because those were new maps. Same old maps were still played...

Of course I have faith that Blizzard won't make same mistakes again

edit: of course some high level players used to thumb down common maps they didn't like with adding new maps to their list. Trick was that other high level players didn't do that so you could play maps you like.

edit2: Still this way there will be some bad maps but more likely good maps too. Blizzard just looks data how many times certain maps are been vetoed and replaces those next time with new maps.


They should do what iCCup did and give bonus points for maps of the week.
This gave people an incentive to learn the new maps.

This would make sense if you could ladder on only 1 map, but since it is random I dont think it can work.



Your right I forgot that it was random.

EU just updated as well. I still dont get the idea of a 2n2 map for 1on1 though. :/

I remember in one of the Blizzcon SC2 development panels, Blizzard said players love small to medium size maps because of faster action and pressure (or something along those lines), not big maps. Looks like blizzard is following up on what they believe. I for one don't mind small maps as long as they can be played out as a long game too.

Dunno if this has been mentioned yet but jungle basin might be better for Protoss than Desert Oasis was. Reason? You can warp in the safe expo from outside it without breaking the rocks, just like on DQ.


That's a problem.

Also I'm testing some things. On Jungle Basin the top base has one gas that needs 4 workers on it, the bottom does not....


I just tested that and thats not true.. yes the gas is a bit longer away but 3 is still enough and give same income.

Then they should balance zerg for play on those size of maps. Otherwise, give us bigger maps.

You can't balance the game around one size of map and then totally destroy that balance by never providing the players with that sized map.

Awesome. More maps that let me practice my 6 and 7 pool 1337ness.


I can't really blame Blizz though, they're just adding maps that are more casual friendly.

Smaller maps = less macro intensive and shorter games.

Finally! The DO tile set is dead.
Please blizzard/all you map editors, no more Desert Oasis tile set!
If you make a map on that tile set, please give me your email so that I might send you a video of my eyes bleeding. I don't care if you made the next python, (though the next outsider is a different story)
I can't play it if the tile set blinds me. It burns like the snow tile set in BW, but is significantly worse looking. It is no coincidence that DO is being removed.

Also, yay for new maps.

They took out my DO ... :'(.

Jungle Basin looks a little like Xel Naga so I'm ok with it for now ...

Shakuras looks great cross position, kinda like BS on east/west and utterly ridiculous on vertical positions. Is it me or are the naturals in siege tank range of each other on vertical spawns ? Looks like it would be a great map if it only had cross spawns, as it is I don't think it will quite make my ban list but I know I'll be losing to a vertical spawned Terran (so 1/3 Terrans and 1/3 of vertical ... 1/9 games on the map isn't terrible, hopefully 2 gates and 4 gates aren't too bad).

Actually Jungle Basin looks like a decent Zerg map. Free 14 hatch, options for a third are further but similar to Xel Naga or DQ. 2 Zerglings at the watchtowers give amazing scouting and the back door rocks mean it isn't a perfectly safe expand for T or P (a few roaches to break them and they are open to run by.
