one and four i do like, two is named rush and for a good reason because you can just break rocks and do a 2base all-in by walking out your front door. Same goes for three, the rocks make one basing bearable, but breaking the rocks gives a strong two base attack a speed pass to your natural. The fourth map could suck depending on how you spawn, one person could possibly have their third right next to the opponents main, which would really suck for both players, | ||

#2 seems like a 4 player Steppes of War, which is nice. I really miss Steppes of War  | ||

map #2 rant: not only is the map tiny and the natural far from your main, there are 3 possible entrances to defend, protected by (you guessed it) destructible rocks. Also, the logical third has a nice cliff for tank drop shinanigans. Also, there is a gold with destructible rocks just to make sure the map gets the blizzard stamp of approval. map #3 rant: A new and improved metalopolis now complete with destructible rocks since blizzard heard everyone like metalopolis except for the glaring lack of rocks. Once again you have a 1/3 chance of having to bring your cheesiest rush strategy to the table. Oh yeah, a gold base with some destructible rocks for good measure. map #4 rant: No destructible rocks this time! Just some destructible debris to ensure its not too easy to defend your third on the only "macro map" Also, miles of open space around the edge to ensure banshee's muta's and DT drops have a low risk high reward ratio. Dear blizz, just let us have a tournament map pool. Everyone I know that is a "casual" bronze leaguer has more fun when they aren't having to play "rush wars" with their already poor mechanics. And many casuals watch the GSL and would love to be able to play on maps the pros play on. Why do you insist on depriving us of this? | ||

I'd love to play competitive games on aesthetically pleasing maps like Bel Shir and Dual Sight. A boy can dream. -.- | ||

What a fucking joke. The team maps are just bad and lazily designed as well. More shared bases maps? hahaha No shared bases because ling/helion rushes are fun? Good thing the community isn't in charge of map design. | ||

the last one is a weird micro map. it looks like that based on the spawn locations, your third could practically be touching the enemies main. | ||
