Great call by Blizzard, not so much for eliminating Typhon/Backwater/Searing Crater (although that was good too) but for finally acknowledging close spawns making for poor games. This means future map pool decisions probably won't have that particular monster rearing its ugly head again. Way to go!

lol @ the TL Community.

So bitchy about everything. Blizzard makes a great change and everyone is immediately complaining they didn't change more. No wonder Blizzard doesn't take anything we say seriously.

Oh great, why would they keep a super biased map and the most boring map in the world.

Hell, it's about time! Gj Blizz, more of these kind of decisions please. But, you know, faster. Still though, fuck yeah!
Change to MY nostalgia? UNACCEPTABLE! Monkey paaaw!

Very good steps in the right direction, wish they did a bit more tweaking though like removing close spots on Antiga and maybe removing Xel Naga
I could spend a while with that smile

Tournament maps??? I dont see any tournament maps?

Was really hoping they would add something new this season. Daybreak, even testbug. ehh The only pro maps here are antiga and the occasional shakuras

Personally I feel like every season they should cut whatever map has the most vetoes.
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

Kinda sad there are no new/community maps, especially cause there are a lot of great community maps... like bel shir and dual sight.

But this was such a great choice. Great to be able to practice on ladder choosing either large or small maps to play on, instead of crappy vs good.


Yes, I hope they put Dual Sight in. It is really fun to play games as protoss with an untakeable third and an auto-loss in PvZ.

thanks blizzard, you are slowly trying to make things right, a lot of people maybe dont realise it but you are trying to really make this work, not just throwing money at it!

Not a GSL map doesn't mean no tournament map.
All 'tournament maps' in the ladder pool are frequently used by multiple big tournaments.

This is easily the best map pool they've had since release.

Granted nerazim crypt and abyssal are kind of shitty, but they're at least playable, and worst case they can be unchecked. All the other maps kick ass!

wow this is actually awesome news.

I despise close positions as Terran as I like to have some time to set up a nice infrastructure whilst possibly doing some nice pressure but close positions made roach timings super hard to deal with, siege timings and immortal timings, whilst being much easier to scout also could be tough.

I like how it makes proxies slightly more powerful too, as I dont mind cheese as a relatively skilled player you know how to deal with and its good practice to scout, so bolstering cheese is fine if 1 - 2 base allins are weakened.

Veto on Nezarim for sure, find it so hard to take a 4th vs heavy muta balls, its brutal.
Never really liked Abyssal because of close positions so havent played it much, if its still close positions I wont bother with it either.

Might use my other veto on xel naga, it feels a bit too cramped these days but at the same time Im also starting to feel that tal darim is just too big, despite really liking it, sometimes TvZ can feel hopeless.

I will say Typhon didnt need to be removed though, whilst perhaps not tournament suitable I think it was decent for ladder, still though, overall a fantastic decision by Blizz, big props.

I had Backwater , Searing, and Typhon already on veto, so nothing new there. Not sure if I will veto Nerazim and Abyssal, but Meta is an instant veto, cause of PvZ. It's so freaking hard.

This is fantastic - shattered without close positions will be great, and they removed all the maps that I had veto'd. So even though I'm not a fan of metalopolis, I can easily veto it and have two more to spare. I may veto Xel Naga just because I dislike PvP on that map, but even then I have another veto that I have no interest in using - this map pool is really good now, or at least not outright bad, in my opinion.
