Wow these are massive changes! The destructible rocks that led to the expansion on terminus was a huge part of gameplay, this is going to be so weird!
And now no nyduses on bel shir on that high platform, dont know if that is bad or good

good if you are protoss and lose to roach armies running past you or nyduses on bel shir. Also if you fast expo and cant in any way pressure the free 3rd for Zerg on terminus

I think Terminus is definitely coming to ladder now. I really don't like Bel'Shir beach though, now you have to 4Gate PvP on it T_T.

Good changes. GOM realizing that blizzard is slow to balance and they need to at least make the maps favorable/decent for toss to give them some kind of fighting chance. To all the other races complaining, its not like they are all of the sudden terrible for your race, you just can't easily abuse some things as you normally would.

Putting rocks on the place where an expansion is placed is retarded and gives Terran an unfair advantage as they can create the building slightly to the side and then move it and start mining the moment rocks are down, while Zerg and Protoss need to wait for the rocks to be removed before they can start constructing the expansion.

Too bad GSL didn't look at the way iCCup map making team solved this on Testbug by placing the rocks on the minerals.

Oh no the highground on bel'shir is gone, I always liked that. Its not like it ever got in the way much for anyone and it was cool. Any ideas on the reasoning for ditching it specifically?

I never really did understand the half expo on terminous. It always seemed kinda strange to me.

I don't really like any of these changes to be honest. The Terminus changes are just unnecessary dumb, and the belshir changes dumb down the map to make it like every other map ever. I really liked the high ground in the main, and I understand the two wide ramps were imba, but why not just make one of the ramps a narrow one and/or pointing it in a different direction (kind of like the original version of the map)?
