OMG they are actually keeping ALL FOUR of those testmaps?

I shall never roll Zerg on the ladder again.

I'm sure when metalopolis comes back, it will have at least 12 sets of destructible rocks


I think you mean Shatteredopolis

I'll miss Monlyth Ridge. Fun 2v2 map.

Bored of Metalopolis though, oldest map around and not very good compared to new stuff in tournaments (not so much ladder, though.)

I think they are removing the right maps. Close positions on metal is ridiculous and the other maps are just all around bad.

Overall balance has also proven to be an issue on Metalopolis -- even factoring in close position spawn issues. It’s among the least balanced maps currently in the ladder pool, and along with Scrap Station (also being removed) and Tal’darim Altar, has a heavy (60%+) bias toward zerg at the highest levels of play.

Well, kinda serves it right. Zergs whine a lot for nothing IMO.

I'd love to know the skill distribution as well as races for people who are for and against the Metalopolis removal.

I bet we'll see Meta again with rocks at the third and gold.

Removing meta is sad, but will probably be ok

the more painful part is the new maps we will be playing on T_T

Played the test maps. All of my vetos are going to 3 out of the 4 new maps. Getting rid of Metalopolis is just dumb.

Great changes. Many people are whining about taking out Metalopolis but come on, give Blizzard a break. They are finally removing Scrap Station AND Delta Quadrant, excellent. If statistics indeed say it's imbalanced, let's believe them on this one. Besides, it's refreshing to see new maps. I am afraid I do have to thump down at Tal'Darim because PvP is just horrible (you have to 4 gate), even though I like the other 2 matchups a lot on it. All other maps now seem to have a ramp you can block with 1 FF (unlike Scrap, which was the main reason I thumped it down in S2).


How the FUCK can you give someone a break when they remove a map for a reason, but keep another map (shattered temple) in the pool when it has the EXACT same problem. It just goes to show their fucking incompetence.


Maybe because meta has been around for a year now and still shows problems while shattered has only been on around for a few months and Blizzard wants to see if given more time the current data will change. Calm down.
Live it up.

That's the most stupid logic i've ever heard in my life. Shattered temple shares the same problem as metalopolis what part of this do you not understand? Look i'm trying to be nice here, but it doesn't take a genius to understand this.
