Anyway was about time, sadly just like delta and scrap. Hehe season 4 is RIP xel naga then (which is good for me as my pc doesn't like the middle hole hehe) and probably taldarim too. Well i don't mind map switchup and the new maps have quiet nice options, though less reaper play T-T. The more the maps are different the better hehe. (well i have 3 vetos, so 3 maps can play like 3 others  ) | ||

Personally I hate Backwater Gulch, the natural expansion just feels very awkward imo and it is also awkward to wall off as protoss in some positions. Vs zerg you can abuse the choke right in front of the natural with FF's and i think PvT is very hard to paly on this map. The only problem I see with Typhon Peaks is if a zerg spawns vertical positions with someone, then the rocks breaking to the natural expansion can be very annoying. | ||

 The new maps excite me though, especially Antiga Shipyard. Should make for fun games. | ||

They just said it's one of the least balanced maps with a 60% winrate toward zerg and you are acting like it's being removed solely because close positions didn't favor zerg. Try reading. It was also pretty much impossible to expand close positions versus zerg without just getting roach/ling allinned and autolosing. | ||

Metal... I loved that map except for PvP, where everyone cannon rushes. It definitely is a bit zerg favored but not by much, and it is easy to achieve a split map situation. No new GSL map is a real bummer. I'm sure everyone loved Tal'darim. I for sure did. Why not try out another GSL favorite like... Bel shir beach for aesthetic appeal? Any of the newer ones seem pretty good... Xel Naga Fortress, Dual Sight... Did Shattered Temple have their close spawn removed? It doesn't mention anything about it. If so, good job. If not... I tested out the new blizzard maps. They are loving this shrubbery/destructible rocks gimmicky shit. But we'll see how they play out. TBH playing a map that isn't featured in tournaments seems kind of empty though, and wins aren't as significant. | ||

Sad to see Metalopolis go though, but I guess it has been in the pool since pretty much the beginning. | ||

Slag Pits was just all around horrible with crazy rush distance in close positions. Scrap was extremely difficult pvz with annoying air rush distance. Also, the nat was a little weird though I did like the high ground beyond it. Metalopolis close positions was crazy for rushes. Close air was crazy for drops/mutas. Not to mention the fact that it was way too easy to come to a stalemate with the map divided in half. Also, the fact that the gold bases were so vulnerable to artillery was really annoying. Delta Quadrant I actually liked. Very unique map that created for interesting situations. Unfortunately, the balance issues with this map were simply too great to be ignored. I'm still a little annoyed with backwater, but otherwise content. | ||

They are decent maps, but again what fucks zerg over is close spawns..... which means that the center tower is useless. Id rather they add rocks to the third in exchange for an easier way to find out if your opponent is actually moving out or just scaring you. And even if they are moving out, when you make those units..... they arent ready in time. | ||
