I do think testbug would be a lot better without the lava as an intermission between spawn locations. The green area has no intermission so the lava makes the map look a lot more messy than it should. If the rest of the map transitioned like the top right, the map would be blizzard quality graphics wise, and that is a big step to getting it in the pool.

Testbug looks so cool, also plays out nicely as far as my judgement goes. Kudos to ESL for integrating custom maps into their 1v1 events !

Could you give us any insight as far as how they chose those two maps? I'm sure you presented some others as well?! (no criticism, just curious)

ESL was awesome and asked our opinion on our most balanced maps. Turns out the list we gave them and the list they had in mind were VERY close. Was a totally painless experience, and props to ESL for taking the time to ask us!

<3 ESL for jumping in as the first major tournament. <3 ICCup as well, love the effort you guys are putting into the mapmaking and general SC2 Scene.


second (cough GSL cough)

7th of February for GSL ... cough...
3rd of February for Go4Sc2.

So it could be said that ESL would be first

Indeed you are missing a reference.

If I am not mistaken, testbug was a BW mapmaker, the ICCup team named their map after him.

EDIT: looks like someone else said it first

I don't know what to think. Part of me is glad new maps are being used, but without standardization this could turn into a huge mess. The community needs to either latch on to the new GSL maps or ICCUP maps, and seeing as GSL is the much larger and infinitely more important organization 'm leaning towards them.

Having some leagues use x custom maps and ther leagues using y maps is completely unfair to the players.

Err, first of all, why is GSL infinitely more important than ESL? And second, if they use "GSL" maps in Korea and iCCup maps in Europe, how is that in any way unfair to the players?

Since the iCCup Mapmaking Team works together as a team and is much more accessible for criticism than any Korean mapmakers, and since I think they are ahead in terms of quality at the moment, I'm leaning towards them.

There will be a very akward period I am sure but I am just so glad that customs are starting to be used! Although I feel and hope that in the future that iCCup maps will be the standard, but if not as long as they are good maps you will hear no issues from me . We are just here to help move along SCII.
