I'm hoping MLG is going to start using iCCup maps...!

With chat channels coming in 1.2, this could actually be viable.
This would be awesome

Not really. The holidays sort of brought everything to a crawl, tt,,,,

Do you guys happen to have a heads up on the January map pool? or do we have to wait until January. I know at least 32 people in a tournament that would love to know if Obsidian Inferno is being removed.

I'll let diamond know of this question. Do they want or not want Obsidian Inferno to be removed?

I know officially that Obsidian Inferno is staying in, you can pass the word on as you please.

I would not expect it to. Our maps pools normally come out on the 25th of each month, but with the holidays and that nonsense expect it Monday or Tuesday.

Valhalla and Starlight breaker seems the best , Especially Valhalla though I prefer the middle to be less open
Obsidian inferno Enigma and Europe seem to be highly likely fun maps .
Obsidian inferno : Removal of hidden rock makes it a 6 pool fest with lowest rush distance ever in a map .
Enigma : 4 high yield mineral patches and 4 geysers in the midle ..... lol this is obviously a fun map or atleast intended to be
Europe seems to be one of those maps were 1 player get's the middle position and then proceed to win , this will likely be a zerg abusing his mobility and taking all the gold since of the vision

I so badly wish iCCup Enigma was in the ladder map pool. That map is a God amongst mere mortals when compared to the blizzard maps. Not too fond of Valhalla and Match Point cuz of the mineral only expos in a game that always seems like no matter what race you play you just never have enough gas XD. I dunno what the result would be adding geysers to such close by expansions but yeah. Enigma FTW

We need someone on the inside. Y' know, someone who knows the inner workings on Blizzard. Like a map ninja. And beat it into Blizzards heads that their maps SUCK.

We have dispatched two teams previously to infiltrate the map department. Both have went dark and are assumed killed .
They are good, how else do you think they kept SCII a secret until the official announcment?

I personally feel that ICCup maps will have a huge growth coming in January (Chat Channels).

Duly noted and I will let everyone know when to expect the updated list. Most of the people, even those that joined the league but are not in the tournament, disliked Obsidian due to it being too close to Scrap Station. iCCup Scrap Station if you would.

at least put some rocks on that passage the natural is too open and the rush distance is too short for any kind of decent length game

Can you provide replays of the bridge being abused? I'd like to see it actually happening.

We need more tourneys to start using these maps instead of the Blizzard ladder maps... I feel like that would be the best way to get the community into custom maps.

I'll see if I can get any for the guys practicing for the tournament for you.

Someone should post a thread on the EU Battle.net forums as well.
