I liked Korhal so I'm kinda sad to see it gone but I'm really looking forward to Metropolis being back sometime. It doesn't look like it's back this season but hopefully it will be for Season 9. Love that map.

Not sure how I feel about Condemned Ridge yet since I think the ridge behind the third allows for interesting play (for better or for worse) but it almost seems like it's too big.

I like the removals. Metal was really bad versus zerg and Korhal just lent itself to 2 base allins. It was a fun map to practice allins but got boring after a while.

I really don't like condemned ridge though. The third seems way too wide to properly defend a roach max with immortal/sentry and the ramp is really wide. The ridge behind the third I haven't had experience with but it seems like Terran could abuse that with drops really easily.

I vetoed it just based on the wideness of the third, though.

At face value, Condemmned Ridge looks very very good. So far, I like it. Thank goodness they got rid of the rocks.

However, if there's one thing I don't like is it's odd design. There's so much dead space in the middle and on the outside, and to be honest this map is SO potent for drops.

I don't see why any Terran would want to veto this.

As a noob terran I can't see any place to attack versus zergs, all is so open!

So... what's the general consensus on Condemned Ridge as Zerg? Haven't had the chance to play on it yet even though it's not thumbed down (just bad luck I guess).

I'm Terran and I vetoed it because cross spawns is...unplayable.

Yep, the third on Condemned Ridge is way too fucking open. Absolutely ridiculous to hold in PvZ max roach situation. Veto.

This map is soooooooooooo huge ! I can 14 CC in every match up without any fear now !
Even photon rush is hard to do if you don't scout the enneny directly !

Really like this map , I made an epic split against a zerg while he was attacking my third ! It's so wide open , I love it !

I really dislike this mapset, it's almost impossible to cheese or do any sort of super fast rush.

Yes, people can macro. That's nice- how about making some maps so that terran's aren't massacred in small tournaments :\

Condemned ridge is interesting. It's pretty fucking good for mech.

I also like how all the spawn positions work pretty well. I also noticed how it's not rotationally symmetric. There's the close by air style, the super long cross style, and the vertical style that works pretty well.

I just noticed metal was removed. Just noticed I haven't played on it all season ;; oh well.

My biggest critique: The HUGE amount of dead airspace behind bases is stupid. It's a design flaw on any map in my opinion, as it lets an harasser whether it be with mutas, medvacs, or prisms, just fucking let it set out there in the corner afk until they need it. It's single-player campaign level shit. It makes "base defense" a matter of just "Don't fucking leave cause the instant you do he's just gonna grab that fucking afk medvac sitting there with its thumb up its ass (or mutas, etc), and rape your base."

Blizzard is balancing multiplayer around crap like this as well as tanks around steppes of war. Hope is waning I fear.
