I down vote Slag Pits, Scrap Station, and Delta Quadrant.

The only one of the three that is a halfway decent map is Scrap, and it has so many odd was around that I don't particularly like it. Plus theres lots of annoying island play at my level (haven't lost to it yet, but the forced transition to BC's to break the island takes forever and is very obnoxious.)

Scrap Station, Delta Quadrant and Backwater Gulch if I could i'd get Slag Pits too. Basically all of the maps you don't see in tournaments are maps I thumbs down no reason to practice unused maps.

I always downvote a mapset of the style i don't want to face play at the moment. If i wanna train early game micro i obviously vote down maps that encourage heavy expansion play ^^. (either the people will die because they only build workers ... or they have a super save defense position once you arrive, which you will surround via shuttling your army and win as well).

As for terran, all maps kinda work for you. Maybe you don't want typhon and probably scrap as well and xel naga caverns. They aren't particular bad, but you need a switched up playstyle on these maps. (except xel naga, but the map encourages one base play so much, because you can even bring down the natural of a zerg no problem)

Other then that its really important where on the ladder you are. My advice is if you are stable on your position, vote down the maps where you meet the most annyoing players.

- Slag pits
Will be removed soon anyways. I hope. For the sake of humanity.

- Tal'darim altar
I like to macro but i feel that Terran right now has a slight disadvantage the longer the games goes on against the other races if you can't put constant pressure on Zerg that is.

- Typhon peaks
I kinda like the map but the colour schemes gets my thoughts on commiting suicide.

I vote down Scrap Station and Delta Qudrant, just because from my experience every toss player will cheese on DQ and every Zerg player will 6 pool on Scrap Station.

Oh yea, and Slag Pits because it is an awful map.

I hate Backwater too, but can't downvote 4 unfortunately

Scrap Station and Slag Pits...As a Plat terran I want to improve my macro more than anything. I play games with an eye on taking a third. These two maps are not conducive to that kind of game. Once I'm satisfied with my macro, I wouldn't mind playing in maps that are not conducive to macro games.

Terran doesn't have an inherent disadvantage on any map. Decide for yourself why that is, but the point is downvote whatever maps you personally don't like playing on.

I have downvoted scrap for the reason everyone is saying, it forces 2base play alot from the terran, and it's very strong air map + hard 2 take third.

i also downvote backwater gulch, mostly because it is not played in tournaments, neither is slag pits, but slag pits is a good hellion map and im a fan of that. Backwater gulch is however a very strange map in my head. I think i won 0 of 20 games vs protoss on that map, and i have no idea why, they just felt very strong there, maybe its only me.

I can't think of any map that other races have clear advantages on. Maps imbalances almost always revolve around what terran can do on them.

none of the maps are particularly bad for Terran I'd say it's a preference thing

The maps I have downvoted:
SLAG PITS
BACKWATER GULCH
SCRAP STATION

I just feel that these maps are so bad TvZ and TvP. TvZ is so hard to win on Scrap station and TvP seems so hard to win on Slag pits and Backwater Gulch. But on the other hand I have actually never tried to play on those maps xD Just theorycrafting

Scrap Station because it's absolutely terrible as a Terran. Wide ramp, close air position and fast rush distance achieved by killing the rocks just sucks hard.
Slag Pits because it's hard to get a freaking third.
Delta Quadrant because it's the most horrible map ever.

There aren't any large ladder maps that favor zergs preferred method of expanding, no. On TDA, there's rocks at the third, a zerg can't take it nearly as fast as they want.

There are some maps that have more open areas that require better defense, but this simply means more sim-city from terran/toss players. Xel'Naga Caverns is one such map, I don't think it's ZvT imbalanced (correct me if I'm wrong).

DQ because when I was a beginner in bronze people would always do cheeses on that map - mainly proxy warp ins in my nat

Shakuras because TvTs on the old version were fucking horrible - it was either a tank/marine snorefest or a two port banshee rush

Scrap because the MUs there are not that interesting, especially TvZ - take your natural,build some tanks, turret up, deny the zerg's third - rinse and repeat.

I do fast expo builds on the bigger maps - my macro may suck but same can be told about the Z players that are on my level.
Sure they can take their expos safely, sure they can be 30+workers ahead of me but in the end it all comes down to army control and harassing efficiently.If they are better they win,if not - I loose.

In Soviet Terranistan you rush the Zerg

I down Scrap Station, because its imposable to get a third And Air back stabs are a mother. I also Down DQ because back Door warp in is Imba. I'm like the only Terran incapable if winning on that map.

I down Shattered. As a Terran its impossible to push the center against Zerg. I find Tal easier to play against a Zerg then Shattered -_-

I wanna say I'm thinking of Typhon Peaks. The one with the lowered 3rd and the two xelnaga in the middle. If I were to vote one down, it would be that one: TvZ is soooo difficult. Expansion is so wide and therefore difficult to deny counter attacks. Not to mention all the attack routes zerg can use.

i say like all other terrans here scrap station, you really should only downvote as few maps as possible and scrap is really often the map terran doesnt wanna play on, i hate playing that vs zerg X.X

You will need practice on all maps really but if u really need to downvote id say scrap station.


Oh man I really do love playing Scrap Station against zerg. You just turret everything on one side and there's no room for the zerg to ever properly flank you. In TvP it can be a bit annoying but is good for getting nice EMPs and TvT it's a very interesting map.

Is that desert one still in the map pool? It was that and slagpits or whatever it was that I had downvoted last patch. Oh and I've had DQ downvoted for ages, I just got bored of playing on it.
