Congratulations on the sponsorship with SteelSeries and honestly a good move from SteelSeries.
I had always looked at older brood war maps and wondered how some of them would transfer over but since I lack in the map making skills department I thought I might never see it happen but iCCup proved me wrong :D
Maps look amazing. Keep up the good work.

Katrina looks beautiful NeoBowman. Maybe the best SC2 map I've seen, and I'm pretty picky as a product designer. In another life, I would be designing SC2 maps, but I have a family and design enough during my day job.

We had done some 1-1 ports before but they were not that good, but we finally felt we knew enough now to adjust the old ones to suit them to sc2 !

He did do an amazing job! It was a really difficult map to get right for sc2, but neobowman did it perfectly I think. I did the aesthetics on it

As for support just let these tournament organizers know you want these maps! Please don't spam them or anything, just a message on Twitter or a very brief email to let them know!
Twitters of the right people: Mr Chae from GOM TV NASL TV MLG Ryan
Please again DO NOT spam them. I know all these people and they are GREAT people and are open to considering them. Just a friendly "hey i'd love to see the iCCup AE maps" or w/e is fine !

Beautiful maps, great work! Look forward to seeing games played on them.

lovely map! I really like most of them, but how long are the rush distances on the these maps? Because for me that has been 1 of the 2 major problems with current maps (the other being that most very few expansions).

Blizzard should really really HIRE THESE GUYS these maps seem more macro oriented not , close spawns are not insta 1base vs 1base and seem fine,please Blizzard add them to the map pool,the more maps the funnier...

Rush distance is pretty large on all Katrina, Sanshorn, and Othello.
On Sungsu it's small but that is a "rush map" as Blizz would say. However the middle choke is easy to wall-off or just generally shut down mid game so the map extends itself slightly and forces both the side paths to be used extensively.

Awesome maps! And congratz on sponsorship, but as a other guy mentioned we need snow maps!! :D
