Yay!!! This is great for ESV and great for us. Blizzard seems to be moving in the right direction and maybe one day we will have a pool of maps that I don't have any vetoes on!!

This is amazing news. I've been playing on Cloud Kingdom with my friend and its a sick map. Haven't tried out Korhal yet, but from the looks of it, it's pretty legit. Blizzard should just keep doing this: Map Contest, Pick the Best Maps, Insert them into Ladder.

Very nice from blizzard. Its actions like these where you can see that blizzard does listen to their community. :>

Pretty good map pool now. There is simply no more map where one could say that its imbalanced or where one race is inferior.

-Natural choke widened from a 3 gateway wall-off to a 4 gateway wall-off


Why? All this does is make forge fast expanding significantly harder, lowering protoss midgame economy, and id guess mess up other expands a tiny bit.

Blizzard did the same thing to Tal'darim Altar . Shakuras seems to be the only map that lets you block with 3 buildings...

Taldarim Altar could be blocked with forge gateway pylon (see HuK vs Moon dreamhack finals where 6/7 pool was held this way with zero losses) and it was widened to i think require forge gateway cyber pylon zealot or something...

does the 3v3 map pool get an update?

Well there were three 2v2 maps nominated in the TL map contest, and apparently Blizzard decided not to include any of them in their ladder rotation. So don't get your hopes up for 3v3...

I like this change! I was kinda confused at Xel'Naga caverns being removed because I haven't played it at all this season; I didn't know it was still in the rotation! I'm guessing a lot of people veto it.

Sorry if it's been posted in the thread already, but there's a somewhat serious balance problem with the two naturals.

On the top position, two 3x3 buildings can reach the ramp and form a full wall-off. However, on the bottom, there is a one-space gap. Here's an image:

Good those got removed. Now it will be interesting to see if Cloud Kingdom is the toss choke bonanza it looks to be.

There is actually no problem. You just misplaced your gateway in the second picture, since it's different than the one in the first. It's misplaced by 1 hex.

The other part too is that the minerals are not properly symmetrical. They are off by 1 hex. I will notify the team about this. Thanks for addressing it!

Oh god, this is so awesome. Removed two maps I didn't like playing on, and added two new community maps, one of which I know is good (Cloud Kingdom).

No, I think it is a problem. We'll have to look at it.

I was doing the wall-off relative to the ramp, which is why the nexus is off center. So yes, the problem is that the minerals are one space left and one space below what they should be, in the bottom position.

XNC is, like, so 2010. And I didn't think Arid was as bad as it seemed at first but I can't be sad that it's gone either. Seems like we got a hell of a ladder pool going on.

Good changes. Sad for Daybreak though. Such a good map. And I want metalo gone too.
