Xeph, are you sure they are planing to add 3 GSL maps? As far as I know, yes, three GSL maps to be added on ladder map pool. | ||

Is Meta and Slag Pits (?!) two of the macro friendly maps? :s Both Shattered temple and Typhon are a lot more macro friendly than Slag Pits, and I'd even prefer close positions on those maps over close on metalopolis. All this 'intermediate maps' and 'aggresive maps' just feels like an excuse for adding bad maps to the pool. "Hey Blizzard, wtf you can't expand at all the natural is way too open and the other bases are too far a part?!" ... "Lol, don't expand then. It's called aggresive maps [img]Trollface.jpeg[img]" | ||

God knows how they came up with that statement. | ||

Rush distances shorter than Steppes and extremely hard to take third bases. Labeling it a macro maps makes perfect sense right? At least Blizzard knows what they are doing. Wait what? :s | ||

Edit : On second thought, they are not as big as I thought. And anything is better than slag pits, DQ and Backwater Gulch. | ||

That would be too smart for Blizzard though. They'll probably get rid of Xel' Naga -_- Ideally I'd like to see Delta go, that map has some positionally imbalances for certain races. I'm not sure if they plan on removing close positions from metalopolis, but I think that would be great too. If not they could drop that too. I'd really like to see Terminus, Tal darim, and Crevasse. Edit: I predict this: Delta Quadrant Slag Pits Backwater Gultch Typhon Peaks Shattered Temple Scrap Station Tal'Darim Altar Crevasse Terminus RE But I could see scrap taken out in favour of metalopolis, or typhon being shunted to macro map, and only 2 gsl maps making it. | ||

Slag pits is a macro map. Not a rush map  Lord only knows why though | ||

Any thought on that?? Slag Pits isnt a macro map at all... It has a shorter distances then Steppes and the Nat is harder to take and hold at least for P. So dont like that map at all. | ||
