If you don't know what I'm talking about, check this: http://eu.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/3675243/Singing_in_Terrain_-06_02_2012#blog This is an article linked on Battle.net. It's an article about the do's and don't of mapmaking. In the article they use Daybreak as the prime example of a great and balanced map. They also use Jungle Basin as the example of a really bad map. Since Blizzard itself linked this article, you would assume that they agree with this article that Daybreak is currently the best and most balanced map, right? Wrong. They choose to omit the prime example map and pick two other (arguably still good) maps. Why?? So no, this action is not in line with Blizzard "listening to the community". It sure is better than their own crap, but still worse than actually knowing which map is the most popular and balanced. Let's hope they continue to learn and eventually REALLY do what the community wants. - edit - The ONLY reason for not including Daybreak would be that it wasn't part of the TL mapmaking contest. That still is a pretty weak argument in itself... how would you react if the announcement actually read "oh and to make you guys even happier, we even included the best and most balanced map of the moment, Daybreak!"... nah that would make too many people happy I guess ![]() A non-blizzard editorial that EU mods decided to highlight does not mean that blizzard's ladder team feels the same way. Why can't people be excited that we're getting not just the possible 1 TLMMC map but 2 and a possible third? WTF? This is like the best map news since TA was added! | ||

I'm not happy with the lack of apparent power the e-sports community has. All of team liquid claims to enjoy the tournament maps more, yet for unknown reasons - some rationale having to do with casual players undoubtedly - Blizzard refuses to give in (now only slightly still) and even now they still have Shattered Temple, Shakuras Plateau and Metalopolis in the map pool. | ||
