This is kinda sad.. the two maps they removed for the new ones were actually better..
TvZ is free win for the terran on both the new maps if he decides to go 2 rax and bunker rush, so they are both insta veto'es for a laddering zerg. Even if they were decent they are not playable in ladder with so many abuseable bunker spots.

I dont see why it would be any more of a free win if you bunker rush than any other map?

Arid Plateau is a joke and vetoed, the other map is OK.

Arid Plateau looks like one of their 'experiment' maps, but I don't get why you'd feel the need to experiment with stuff that clearly isn't going to work. It just looks pretty bad.

Other one is probably gonna be fine, and I'm happy with the removal choices.

I don't like Entombed Valley very much, it reminds me of Typhon Peaks but slightly less shitty.

Jesus these maps are really bad for zerg, only played them a few times but I always got rushed on those maps. They are a fucking joke for zerg and are imbalanced as fuck, anyone that disagrees is either too stupid or doesnt understand the flanking possibilities and positioning that are broken on these maps.

i love how people lose 1 or 2 games on a new map and they instantly vetoe it saying its a shitty map. not even once thinking it might be that you just got outplayed and lost to a rush/timing push.

imho you would have to playe atleast 6+ games with heavy replay analysis on new maps before you can call it balanced or imbalanced for a certain race. playing 1 game and instantly vetoing it just because you lost is stupid as hell. especially if you dont even try to adapt your playstyle on said new map.

BTW, from my own experiences arid plateu is very zerg favored, especially late game. entombed however there are to many fucking rocks (at first i thought there werent so many but there fucking everywhere). im a person that likes to just plop down expos as zerg so any time there are rocks blocking an expo i rage my ass off. other then the rock problem expansions are fairly easy to take. i just really hate rocks....

I didnt even play the new maps I insta vetoed them as they are clearly bad maps (especially arid plateau - i mean WTF?!?!)
Blizz starts going on my nerves with their refusal to implement good maps like some of those from GSL or ICCup.
Instead they fail with map creation from season to season again... as they fail with balancing marines and MULEs.
GSL has even removed gold minerals from their maps as MULEs on gold are simply a joke towards every RTS player.

btw: the best thing about all this is that the maps which have been removed have always been the new maps of the last season. obvious troll is obvious...

Close spawn on entombed valley is almost like close spawn on metalopolis. How is it not obvious to Blizz that this shouldn't be in the game...

Erghh, anyone who hasnt played 10+ games on the new maps shouldnt be saying anything. The people who instantly vetoed the maps without even ever playing them should DEFINITELY not be saying anything

We're not allowed to like the game but dislike the maps and certain other elements? I find that if anyone complains about anything it's considered "whining".

One of the benefits of the base structure on Entombed are baneling landmines on the ramps. I've had so much fun with that!

However, the bunker rushes I just looked at are scary enough to warrant a veto, and the distance between the main and natural on Arid is way too big. Does a 9 overlord even get there in time to spot an 11/11 bunker rush?
