When I opened this thread I was like "UAAAUUURURURRRGH CHEWBACCA NOISES ANOTHER THREAD SAYING BW MAPS MADE AFTER 10 YEARS OF RESEARCH ARE BETTER THAN 1 YEAR OLD SC2 MAPS AND SHOULD BE USED BECAUSE THE GAMES ARE CLEARLY THE SAME IN EVERY WAY AND NEW THINGS ARE BAD RITE"

But I was pleasantly surprised at the dry wit present from Bibbit. Good show sir. I approve.

OP is winning. Glad to see some viewpoint other than "omgwtfxtheskyisfalling"-regarding the map pool

Lol at first I thought it was serious, saw the mineral map, then thought it was a joke, then saw the Crossfire one, then I was like, oh maybe not. Then you were like it would suck haha, so i'm like lol xD

Anyways, some of the ideas these maps are based around are actually pretty interesting. Not balanced of course, but if we can use concepts like these more in maps then it can result in such fun strategies.

Btw who made these maps? Blizz or just random?

ATM my bet I'm making with myself is which new ladder map that everybody says is terrible now is going to be an amazing tournament map in a few months.

Remember how much people raged at Shakuras Plateau for being a terrible map the first week it came out?

This thread is wonderful, it does a good job of showing how silly people are.

Blizz made some. Crysallis and the Critters one for sure and maybe Showdown. But most legitimate maps (like Peaks) were made by pro korean mappers.

Crazy Critters truly would be the greatest possible BW to SC2 map port (no troll really) however IIRC critters don't actually block building placement in SC2 lol. Seriously would be the most fun map ever to have custom 1v1's or massive FFAs on lmao

Crystallis would be interesting especially on how the MULE vs Larva Inject vs Chronoboost would turn out.

Oh and nice post

Thanks ^_^

It seems he has recently edited his post.

Not a surprise to see Demon's Forest actually used, like I said before the maps aren't too horrible haha
