I really don't like these maps (tal'darim, belshir) that just completely ignore balancing an entire matchup... | ||

Terminus is even worse now though, the entire concept of the map is to allow quick thirds. The rocks are really just a nuisance to deal with, but don't solve any problems that the bases are far too turtley. Once you break them, I can see games becoming even more stale and long unfortunately. We'll have to see though. | ||

Anyway, Terminus changes are obviously to help protoss in ZvP since on every other map Protoss just dies when they try take thie third.

Perhaps a subtle hint that Terminus might eventually make it into the ladder? I do like it a bit more than Tal'Darim. Also, I'm not sure if I agree with the removal of the high ground thing at the main base choke on Belshir. I always liked having a bit of high ground advantage there for early defense. If it helps balance out the map, then I guess I'm fine with it. I liked the highground too, the best use of it I've seen is in one of the PvP's I think it might of been JYP vs a Prime protoss, he sim citied so well so that he defended a 4gate with his 3gate no problem. | ||

Explain what a bad map for terran is. you would be surprised how bad some maps are for terran but it is the superior race in korea so it doesn't matter. | ||

It seemed a like a cool way give the defender a high-ground advantage without your generic "base up a ramp" style of thing. Yeah, it was definitely a cool feature of that map and there wasn't really anything wrong with it except for the fact that people weren't utilizing it much in GSL games. Like I've seen 4gate v 4gates where the defender could have got a few couple of extra hits if he warped a Stalker at the top of the high ground (where he had a pylon) but he warped it on the low ground instead. | ||
