Love the removal of Abyssal Caverns and Nezarim Crypt, and that they are going to consider putting community created maps in the ladder pool!

Arid Plateau looks like the natural is very enclosed by chokes and will be hard to break a tank contain ZvT

I'm not sure about whether they made a mix up with the screenshot, but i opened the map in the editor and both sides are exactly the same and they part on the left side isn't there.

Okay, then it's just something wrong with the screenshot. It would be nice if OP could re-post that 4-player map screenshot.


I just checked with the editor and the area you mention is only really visible on higher shader settings. The map preview image is misleading but completely accurate. The ground you're referring to in the image is actually the lowest height possible, a height level reserved for background models (and therefore unpathable). It's actually exactly the same as on the right side, but the effect of the shadows is misleading.

It would indeed be so much easier if Blizzard used community/GSL maps, already in this thread people have spotted fallacies with these (though some are perhaps exaggerated).

Still, the jury is still out on these two, they look alright and encourage two very different styles of play, which is what Blizzard wants anyway. Macro players can veto Arid and rushers can veto Entombed.

I can picture the sim city going on the double platforms ... terrans and prottos building castles and shit xD anyways easy 3 bases ;p everything beyond that gets tricky ;p... and the center expansions I can't see them being utilized only ultra late or never. Blizz Y U put unhappy cyclops in your map ?

Already? Can't we get some time on the same maps before they suddenly start pulling maps every 2 months? I really liked this seasons ladder pool.

You're actually one of the first people I've seen say that they like Abysmal Caverns.

Not a big fan of the 2 new maps but as I play toss I can hardly complain about entombed valley.
I would like to see the current (season 4) map pool but with removal of Xel'naga, Nerazim and Abysal, and then add terminus, that would make for a perfect map pool in my eyes .

I'm curious to see which maps of the map making contest will be entered in the future. Also I like the two new maps, look promising.
I just love video games, what's your excuse?

3 bases turtle P / T look strong on the 4 players map.
Even more than on Taldarim.

I support these map changes! No gold bases, seems like they're taking a hint from the GSL. Well done blizzard, this is the first map pool change that I see very little problems with.
good vibes only
