And why you think that way ? because they removed one good map ?
Maby new maps will be ok to , you must play them , not only see screen shots .


You dont have to play a map to see its utter trash pretty much all the maps have positional imbalances due to rotational symetry and nearly every map has an impossible to take third. The ladder has just become even more pointless as no tournament is going to use the new maps and with metal gone thats one less map on the ladder tht is in tourny play.

Goodbye Metallopolis, you will be missed.. We barely knew ye... Ahh well, but hopefully the new maps can somewhat make up for it.

Tal Darim also has positional imbalances, does that mean its a trash map ?

Xel'Naga and backwater for sure. Then either typhon or shattered, depending on how many times I get close spawns on shattered

No no NO why metalopolis?! It's the best map when you don't spawn close pos for christ sakes.


Precisely, that's why it was taken out.

Wouldn't just removing close pos on it like they did on shakuras be a better idéa then?

A few were saying how cross positions are imbalanced, in favor of zerg. Care to explain?

depends, in ZvP i think its preferable to have close air, it gives you easy access to their third, cross makes the toss 3rd relatively safe.

Zerg is 60% on meta on ladder, there are obvious balance issues

I can see it now. Metalopolis re submitted during the 4th season. Destructible derbies added to the third base.

What annoys me most is the new maps look boring and ugly. It's as if they went into the editor selected 4 player spawn generic map and picked a colour, and that was it. None of them stand out in anyway at all. Look at Bel'shir beach.. and then look at those 4 maps. One has had a lot of work and design effort into it... the other 4 look like they were pre-built in the editor as examples.

Come on blizzard.. stop being lazy with the ugly assed map design.

Why are backwater glutch and typthon peaks not removed lol? Its a disrespect to mandkind that such bad maps can be made, meta even with close pos is far better than those maps tbh. Like the balance difference in cross pos or close pos on both backwater and typthon peaks is exactly the same or even worse than on meta.

I'm shocked they removed Metalopolis from the pool. It was hands down the best map in SC2. I also really enjoyed Scrap Station. It's sad to see my two favorites gone

Summation of this thread so far: "They took out Metalopolis?! FUCK BLIZZARD!! ;( "

Yeah, there are plenty of people in this thread who don't deal with change very well. Suggestion: get up and away from your computer, and walk outside. See some birds. Feel a breeze. Enjoy the Sun's ever-loving warm glow. After about an hour, come back inside, and I'm pretty sure then you'll be fine about the very old Metalopolis being removed.
Don't take me seriously, I'm no Pro. Neither are you.

My bet is that when Metal comes back in Season 4, there will be rocks in the Gold and in the 5/11 o'clock positions.

what really annoys me is that they do not consider maps made by the map makers community.
