The 2 playter map looks absolutely horrible but the 4 player one looks like it could be alright.

Lol. I liked Nerazim crypt because I found out that in certain spawning positions 1/1/1 was almost unbeatable. It was just so easy to destroy all protoss structures from the side of the base. :DDD

I am so pleased they got rid of those two maps. I'm glad they're are trying to rotate the maps until they find good maps to put in there instead, it is a pity that they wont go to the community for maps though :/ there are some really good ones out there!

Bye bye Abyssal and Nerazim, we had to know you for far too long.

Awesome that they mentioned teamliquid. Is that the first time Blizzard have ever referenced TL in their posts?

It's unfortunate that Xel'Naga caverns is still there. It's the worst map in the pool.

Well that's 2 of my veto's gone, so even if these two new one's end up being terrible (they look alright though I think?) I'm still happy enough.

well i can expand on both, and they got rid of two of my vetos so atleast this will make it a little more fresh, i'm fed up of playing on xelnaga, lost temple/shattered and metal.

I like how the 3rd expand on Entombed Valley look with the destrucible rocks as a short cut.

My two least favorite maps removed
However I think I'm going to dislike Entombed Valley, from the looks of it, it's a remake of Typhon Peaks, which wasn't all that bad, however I'd prefer Nerazim Crypt over it any day. Probably going to have to veto it. On the other hand, Arid Plateau looks very promising and I'm excited to be playing that.

Also, congratulations to TeamLiquid and all of the map makers for such an honor

mmh, i actually liked Abyssal Caverns & Nerazim Crypt, but let's see. the new 2player-map looks interesting, but Entombed Valley seems very hard for a zerg-fellow like me to take a 3rd (vP FE) with all those rocks...

Hard to FFE, incredibly open natural, hard to take a 3rd as protoss(either incredibly open to the mid or incredibly far away from the main which spreads your units out)

I think zergs will absolutely love that map but I really can't see a sane toss that wants to play beyond 2base not veto'ing that.

edit: I also want to say that I definitely think Entombed is P favoured, just as much as I think Arid is Z favoured. Seems alright overall but I guess we could do with slightly more balanced maps as opposed to (imo) blatantly favouring one/two races.

Shattered temple is one of the better maps I think.

These maps are not from the TL contest, we don't make such maps.

So true. I adore that map right now... 1v1 map, potential for cheese BUT huge rush distances.. great macro map as well as the potential for shorter games.

As for the maps at hand.. 4 player one looks fine.. Arid looks dire -_-

I don't really know if I like the natural of any of these maps... Otherwise they look pretty good I guess.
