As protoss, the natural is open as hell, it's really hard to simcity it against z. Also with horizontal spawns, defending more than 3 bases is quite hard. | ||

Searing was obivous and backwater was horrible against terrans. I am VERY pleased with the map pool. Not 1 map will be vetoed. | ||

Its a labyrinth of chokepoints so basically terrible for any melee unit or any short ranged unit, and a playground of happiness for siege tanks and colossi. | ||

Oh well at least I don't have to play on Backwater Gulch, the most annoying PvP and PvT map to play on. | ||

Now it's back, with the close positions gone. Doesn't this mean that the balance issues will be made worse with the new version? That was before 1.4, wasn't it? I'm guessing they think that balance problem is now fixed. | ||

Narrow ramps all over the map. Easy 3rd base for Protoss and Terran. The Narrow ramps make sentries, colossus, and tanks really strong on that map. | ||

Take a look at SC2 Korea for Metal and you'll find Zerg isn't actually that amazing on this map. In fact, I am certain it is a Terran map. It has a gold base, and Terran can deny his opponent's gold. If Terran plays this style, it is very hard for Zerg to win. | ||

I personally find TvZ on Shattered Temple to be an unpleasant experience, but other Terran players are going to probably veto Tal'Darim Altar and Metalopolis. Your pick really. | ||

The wide natural combined with the ramp position makes it awkward for Protoss openings, especially against Zerg. Also vertical spawn positions with the rocks in the middle leads to a lot of strong tank and colossus style games. It's also just one of those maps where people will sneak expansions because of the out of the way expansion locations. It's not a terrible map, but it's definitely not my favorite. | ||

Games developed a lot since then, but it still is a map zergs like more yeah. | ||
