Lol Whats wrong with Scrap? Is been here forever.

I'm pretty sure it's just a 4 gate fest in PvP.

Absolutely fantastic map pool. Only thing I disagree with is choosing crossfire as the one GSL map, but I'm happy with the distribution anyway.

Man these are some awesome changes and maps to add (I especially like ICCUP Testbug).

I strongly agree with removing the possibility of close positions on Metalopolis. I always found it interesting though that this map could be played so differently depending on how you spawn. One map yet so many different types of games that can occur.

I would assume not, Blizzard does not like the idea afaik, and from the iCCup side we are strictly against ads being anywhere but the load screens. I cannot speak for GSL maps or anyone else, but I know iCCup will NOT ever do that.

Am I mistaken or did Quake Live have this kind of thing?

This is so great seeing both mlg and gsl working to use maps that are actually good. I haven't seen any games on ICCUP Testbug yet but i can't wait because it looks super cool.

Congrats ICCUP map makers.

I am a huge fan of the forced spawn locations. The only reason they are doing it is to prevent garbage games. How can that be bad?

Probably because of the often overlooked component is how certain maps can be imbalanced with cross positions. For example, you'll often see people say metalopolis for TvZ favors T in close positions but Z in cross positions. I personally think such maps should be removed from the map pool, and denying the advantage from one side but not the other isnt the proper way around it.

I also am not a big fan of testbug. Such a weird map.

wouldn't it be awesome if we had maps that we DIDN'T need to take a spawn out of to be fair?

Great map pool, players and spectators alike should be really excited.

We'll truly see the best players win this time around.

I liked maps that had the clan TAG written in the middle with minerals. Not saying I never not did that in BW once.

TDO hwaiting!

On a serious note, I could see it but I doubt it would go over well with Blizzard. Imagine making a tourney map and having the Kespa logo in it or another game developer that competes with Blizzard?

I am happy with this. Every time I see a close position spawn I just groan and contemplate not watching the game.

Yea, just curious. As a player I honestly wouldn't mind it, but as a spectator it would be kind of a "taking away from the game" feeling for ingame advertisement.

I want to know how the building blockers at the bottom of the ramp will work. In PvZ many protoss build a wall between their ramp and expo.
