QQ Zerg perspective:

-Oh great, destructible rocks. Only takes Zerglings a few centuries to destroy those.
-Oh great, impossible-to-take thirds. Because 2-base Terran and Protoss were too easy to beat as it is.
-Oh great, lowground 3rds. That won't be annoying against Colossi and Siege Tanks.
-Oh great, gold bases. Infinite 3/3 stim + shield Marines for Terran thanks to MULEs, meanwhile I'm 200/200 and out of gas.

Its hard out here for an overmind.


Yeah, well they want maps that arn't to small, but not to big. They need third bases that can be defended, but not to easy because then protoss and terran will do that. Also, huge wide open spaces where mutas can fly, but are still easily scoutable so they don't get dropped.

And we should never be able to seige the main from low ground. But it would be nice if the ramp was really wide so its hard to wall in.

Then Balance.

Is that in the corner of the main? If so, letting them get a bunker up there is like letting a protoss place a pylon behind the smoke on metal.....

It's not the main... it's a bunker sweet spot at the natural.

That isn't the main, but the natural. It isn't like you can really stop it since he has access from outside.

I don't know if it will be an isssue yet. The one on Xel Naga is a problem because it is directly in the path the terran will take to the natural. This one looks like it is tucked in the side on the natural, so I assume it will be easier to stop the bunker non-sense.

I could be wrong, though. We will have to see.

Those pics of the new maps are hilarious. Thank god I stopped laddering. That sweet spot for the bunker is almost an intentional FU to zerg players.

the real problem with the spot on this test map is it's impossible to get a proper surround in order to stop the bunker. With 1 or 2 marines behind the bunker on the other side of the small choke, the zerg is instantly in huge trouble.

All of the maps except for the 2nd one seem pretty decent. Blizzard is definitely getting better at the map-making thing (nothing like Delta Quadrant, Scrap Station, or Steppes on here) but I don't understand what they have against 3-base play o.o


dont you reckon if they just made Steppes a bit bigger it would be ok? i really loved the layout of that map. i miss it a bit.



If steppes was about the size of xelnaga caverns or slighty bigger, it'd be a kick ass map, it was one of the best looking maps blizzard's done in terms of just the overall feel of a map, but then a terran made a tank in his natural and hits your main mineral line and you cried.

A lot of these s1 maps had some potential. At least you could secure a 3rd on steppes without doing all sorts of unreasonable acrobatics that were likely to lose you the game. Delta would be really good map if it was 2 player only with current cross spawns and no rocks in the back. Steppes would be good too if it was just bigger, like you said.
Our Protoss, Who art in Aiur HongUn be Thy name; Thy stalker come, Thy will be blunk, on ladder as it is in Micro Tourny. Give us this win in our daily ladder, and forgive us our cheeses, As we forgive those who play zerg against us.

Ya I was worried about that when I saw the map :/ I guess my worries were warranted.

Somebody really needs to tell blizzard that nobody likes rocks. Are they even aware at all? What the hell is the fun in rocks? The only reason I see rocks being useful is to make gold bases more fair....but even gold bases in my eyes are a flawed idea.
