This is the worst thing Blizzard could do at the moment. First Blizzcon maps suck, now they wont update the mappool for the next season? it really doesnt make sense.

Not sure why there is so much love for Metalopolis in this thread.

It was rubbish! unless you played zerg... Then it was just funny.

But seriously, a very bad map.

why shorten the seasons if nothing changes?

Exactly my thought. Man, I want to see Crypt and Shattered Temple traded out for Terminus and Crossfire. Crossfire would lead to really fun games.

They probably either have no time / people working on sc2 atm, or they don't care at all. I can't believe they don't want to change a single map. Maps like backwater gulch or Searing crater are just awful..

I am starting to really consider the fact that Blizzard does not care so much as we all think they do.

I don't care so much about the inbalance of the current map pool. I just want new maps, half the fun is about finding out all the quirks and nuances of maps. After about 100-150 matches with a map pool it gets boring so the coming season will just be a long wait until next season.

I think they will lose more and more players who only ladder, ie. dont have a team or friends to play 1v1 with.

agreed, you expect SOMETHING new with a season, not including bonus pool resetting, like uhh...

mmm i wonder why there were no chances ... could it be Blizzcon that kept people busy. The Poll is funny though do you want the maps changed you don't like yes or no ?
And of course it was pretty clear nothing would change because it was a short season.

Well I don't really care about the imbalances on ladder maps, because it's not like tournaments are going to use them if they're bad and ladder isn't being played very seriously, but I just like having new maps to play on. (The best solution would obviously be including a couple of GSL/iccup maps every season but new Blizz maps would be better than nothing.)

Seconded. Desert Oasis was sweet. So fun to abuse phoenixes on that map.

Hell way they remove Khaydarin Depths. That map was really bad.

Tempest was nice but i don't mind that much.

Is there anyway to see the new map ?

Would've been nice to see maps like Xel'Naga Caverns, Typhoon Peaks, Backwater Gulch, Shattered Temple..............

Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing every single map in the pool go. Then again, looking at Blizzard's track record, I somehow doubt they'll replace it with any better ones.

If I could have just one more veto. I'd be happy with the ladder pool. I play Typhoon Peaks but I find it impossible to beat protoss on. I really don't mind Shattered Temple, Xel'Naga Caverns, Antiga, Searing Caverns (not great, but usually leads to long macro games so it's fine) and erm I've forgotten what the other maps are. But I veto'd the ones where it's hard to take a third as I like macro games.
