Had a TvT on slag pits earlier, where he tried a tank contain on the high ground but it was easily held with a couple tanks and mm and by me just taking more bases and the proxy pf at his gold.... Overall at first quick glance I think it's good that blizzard is making bigger maps, for more action, and more strategically military flanks and army positioning and macro games!

Whatever changes Blizzard do its seems inevitable to see non-stop bashing. People don't even try the maps and are already angry at the changes. I like blizzards maps. One of my favorite map was Desert Oasis. | ||

You're right that most people are whining. The map design isn't likely to affect many of my games' outcomes (with the exception of close position backwater being hilariously bad) Gamers, unlike any other group, love to hate their hobby. But that's not to say these maps aren't very, very bad. the pro's on catz's stream all came to that conclusion. And I just played a long distance lost temple tvz. That map is basically impossible to push with mech on anymore. the middle is just a giant boxing ring for flanks. | ||

So far I've played these new maps about a dozen times and I think that from a zerg perspective, they generally result in better games - less early all in stuff and the games are progressing into later stages. Vs Protoss, I feel like they're basically being forced into 4 gating - which coincidentally seems like it will be more effective since the average zerg is going to have a false sense of security from the distances. Vs Terran - I feel like there's going to be less give and take and every attack is going to be balls deep all in on their part - which I think is going to involve a lot of base trading. | ||
