why are people worried about that bunker placement?, you can still double bunker the ramp, i'd much rather place my bunkers there.

Entombed valley looks like a lot of fun, but it still has gold mineral nodes, which I am not a fan of

Entomed doesn't, the other map does.

That said, I'm okay with it because of the rocks, so Protoss doesn't auto-lose vs. zerg if they try to fast expand, which is the biggest problem with maps like antiga or metalopolis right now.

If Protoss tries to FFE on any map with an open gold, zerg can take the gold as their first base completely safely, then take their natural as their third, and be way ahead. There's nothing protoss can do about it either, so protoss has to open with a one base and a slower expo on those maps, which is really freaking hard.

It takes like ten seconds to get to the other side of that bunker with lings. There's actually no advantage to putting bunkers there because it can still be surrounded.

i just do not like naturals with two entrances.
I mean, searing crater is the best example.

I don't get why they don't just create a system that allows a bunch of maps into rotation which can be vetoed outside of the "standard" ones. So if people aren't comfortable with them, they don't have to play them. While at the same time, those people who aren't bitches about trying out a map a few times and giving it an up or down vote can help test them with authentic ladder matches.

It can be a constant thing. 10 standard maps with 3 standard vetoes, everything else from a pool that's constantly updated with submissions where all maps can be instantly vetoed or turned off.
And on the pedestal these words appear -- "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Blizzard needs to leave mapmaking to the people who know how to make maps. Obviously they suck at it.

I really wish blizzard cycle through maps faster, I think it would retain more players/interest. Like seriously XNC has been in the map pool for so long...

Arid is just another form of Xel'Naga Caverns. But I guess change is always welcome.

VETO TO HELL (or not)
