I hope they give us 4-5 vetoes instead of 3. Some of the maps are so ridiculous, super close spawning postions along with destructible rocks.

or they should delete close pos from any map where it posible

so annoying how they have a 2 week period before the new season. A week is more than enough for people to spend their bonus pool. If it's too big to do in a week, then you're not an active player anyway.

If they change the map pool every season then this 2 month season thing will be great. Otherwise, what's the point?

Agreed, my bonus pools are depleted daily regardless of how much I banked... Even with 100 that's basically just 8-10 wins

I'm starting to think the new season will go like this:

2 months of normal season time
2 weeks of 'lock-down' (What we are in now).

So 2.5 months per season?

I thought it would be 1.5 months of normal season and 2 weeks of lock-down.

Is it just me or are the games harder since the lock ? I was rank 1 diamond matched vs masters, and now I am down to rank 30 :o

Perhaps people are just fighting for the top spots in their division, thus more more "try hards" on ladder atm?

Has there been any official word on new maps this season? I feel like we should have heard something by now

None. Thus I am not expecting any changes to map pool at least beginning of season 4 anymore. One can always hope that they are just not releasing the information because they want to surprise the community e.g. by adding GSL maps into the pool, but having doubts regarding this.

IMO they need to dump like 4 maps, since there seem to be at least 2 that no one high up really plays

Can someone explain why the lock is 2 weeks. I feel like 1 week is enough. 2 weeks of lockout in a 2 month season seems stupid

Does MMR become a little more variable during the ladder locks? I feel like during the last two locks is when I started playing higher league players, which I thought was a coincidence but now I'm starting to think both increasing and decreasing MMR is easier during the ladder lock.
