The pool will be (9 maps included):
- DQ: rush map
- ST: rush, normal and makro map
- Metalopolis: rush, normal and makro map
- Slag Pits: rush, normal and makro map
- XNC: normal
- Scrapstation: normal
- Typhoons Peak: normal - makro
- Backwater: makro (wtf?!?)
- GSL-Map: makro

They should just delete Slag Pits and put in another GSL map.
The spice must flow

That's very promising news. Blizzard is accepting that their map creating team is not the best out there and are indeed turning to other teams. That's really surprising actually.

I always thought that Blizzard would take more time to make a decision like this.

Backwater Gulch - MAKRO MAP.

This is actually worse than considering Slag a macro map, because in that case at least they bothered to mention spawning positions.

On Back-can'ttakeyournatural-water Gulch..... epic macro games incoming.

Why on earth are they saying this on Korean and German forums and not posting anything on the English ones. Blizzard, a little coordination if you please.

Anyhow, it's a welcome addition to the map pool. I think this is great.

Blizzard probably expects a huge shitstorm of criticism from the English forums for not including all the GSL maps and including Slag Pits and Backwater.

Dunno if the Korean and German forums are more docile compared to the English ones, but personally I would be treading lightly when nothing is absolutely set in stone yet.

So does this mean only one GSL map now? I was so excited for those three maps and now I'm just pissed... I hope the first post is true! And that Blizzard decides to make a good choice on the maps.

Awesome job blizzard. So... what is the next reason we will scream at blizzard for being incompetent?

Chat rooms... ok those are in...
Bad custom map system... ok that is improving bit by bit
Map pool... ok they are listening to us there too...

All that irrational hate for blizzard as nothing but whores who don't listen to the community and care about nothing but money... Not really holding water now eh?

Oh come on, this one's easy. Where's our shared replays (watch as a group).

I do agree though, people take out their frustration by blaming blizzard a little too much.

no, ppl are frustrated cuz blizzard takes way too long to improve things that are commonly known as just bad and when they finally do the only logical thing we all should praise them for it?

I'm am pretty good (top 20 silver) and I don't like these maps at all. I think most people want maps like Steppes of War and Blistering Sands. They are intense and 'funky' and not as boring and cold as most of the 'Korean' maps, if you catch my drift. I mean what if my opponent is good at macro? I want strategic options that work against every type of player and these new maps don't supply that, and again I'm saying this is a strong player, not some bronze noob.

This post is truly the funniest thing I've read in a while. I'm still laughing as I type this.

I'm a little concerned about Blizzard's definition of the word "soon".

By the time these come out, the GSL will be on new maps, and people will be wanting to play those.

Also, I don't know if Blizzard is going to be cool changing the map pool every 3 months which is roughly the time it took for most BW maps to fall out of style (except the special ones, you know Bluestorm, Python, Andromeda, Destination...)

Either way, excited about playing on the sexy GSL maps, had some very fun games on Terminus, and Altar, also jacked about the precedant of adding third party maps to the map pool as Blizzard seems to have their collective heads up their collective asses.

Some of the criticism of Blizzard is actually warranted. It shouldn't have taken this long to remove the bad maps they had and some of their decisions are still head scratchers. What Winston Churchill said about Americans applies to Blizzard with their stance on maps.
