vertical positions on typhon and backwater versus terran was tough for me, and i don't think i won a game on searing crater at all. of course every loss on these maps are due to some fundamental shortcoming in my play, but the other maps didn't highlight them as frequently. i didn't know metal was zerg favoured (according to tlpd it seems it's not), but it is my favourite map on the ladder so far, so maybe there's something to those claims. | ||

It was Zerg favored across all regions in Master's and Grandmaster's on the Ladder. Tournament results are likely different. | ||

It makes complete sense since they reduce the lenght of the season. Throwing in like 4 new maps and have a big map pool makes it harder to get to know all maps in just 2 months, when they change again. In my opinion its better to swap maybe 2 maps each season, the rotation will pretty much be the same anyways. So instead of having to practise many new maps each season, one can focus on just a few. This will propbably also improve the quality of the pool in general, as the don't have to add som many untested/bad maps every season. | ||

Yeah, I never really understood the hate for this map, I found it pretty decent after the natural ramp change, I would rather have had Abyssal Caverns removed. Oh well, not a big deal anyways, its a step in the right direction, even if it's a bit dumb to remove close pos on metal/shattered 3 days after blizzcon -_-' Having a map or two added into the pool * Daybreak * could have been nice, but they are probably waiting for the results of the TL map contest to do so. | ||

You can win if you outplay your opponent. 2 close spawn maps now  Ive never noticed anything wrong with typhon but people always complain about it. Anybody care to elaborate on why they dont like it. | ||
