Condemned ridge, definitily a nice map for toss. It looks like tal darim with only choke points when you get out of your base. nice job -_-

Is Condemned Ridge up anywhere? Don't see it on NA or the Beta servers.

And yea, Condemned Ridge looks a little too Protoss friendly (this coming from a Protoss player). If that choke point is small enough, I think you might even be able to just FFE from the natural ramp to the third's choke, while having a cannon kill the rocks.

zvp will be kind of hard with these rocks on the third base... why rocks why?

well just another map where it depends on spawing position to take a hidden or risky early third base

wow when i saw the 2nd picture i was scared for a second xD didn't read that it was a 2v2 map that would have been the worst Z map that ever existed ...

good thing korhal is out so i get one of my vetos back YES

on the other hand i'm not sure what to think about the new map... at least the mappool gets smaller so maybe if i don't have to veto it i can finally play only on maps where i don't have a disadvantage against at least 1 race

How long could it possible take to fix Metropolis. It was a popular map from my understanding.

The new 1v1 map looks like a POS Blizzard map.

- Rocks at 3rd: zerghate.
- High ground cliff behind 3rd: Terran love (siege tanks will own there).
- Only 1 (!) entrance to defend all three bases. How easy can you make it for T and P?

Looks like their mapmaking "team" still consists of clueless people... and there definitely is no Zerg player among them... sigh.. I guess we have a new insta-veto.

And why no Metropolis? Why didn't the mapmaking "team" just fix the Metropolis issues instead of creating this collection of wasted bits and bytes?

As a Protoss player, I like maps where I can do something other than defend 3base Roach every game.

Metalopolis simply isn’t being used in tournaments anymore, and this map has some balance issues as well. (4)Metropolis LE is an improved version of this map that will see use in a future ladder season.

Is there a typo here? How can Metropolis be an improved version of Metalopolis?

Yeh looking at the picture, the choke at the 3rd if anything seems smaller than the ramp at the natural so just FFE at the 3rd seems crazily easy. Maybe theres some blocker to stop it, otherwise Im going to enjoy FFE into 3 base collosus timings

Thank god they removed Korhal and Discord, both so terrible maps.

New maps look cool, except well... why the hell are there rocks on the thirds of Condemned Ridge? >.>

Haha, that new map is the metropolis I've been waiting for! Glad to see a nice protoss map in the pool for once. At least it appears that way, hopefully it plays out the same way.

my first hatch on condemned will go down to protect the third and natural *-*. Defense position taken until drop is done for the opponent. Just gonna do it for the bw feeling of taking defense positions with hatches. Nice playing around with the 3 bases by Blizzard, otherwise pretty standard this map.
Lategame will be funny, as you can plonk down a PF and defend 3 bases at once with it. Terran income is save !

that 1v1 map is the worst looking map i've seen in recent months - rocks on 3rd, only 1 entrance to natural + 3d (that's why there are rocks but still ...) and what the hell is that thing behind the minerals on the 3rd - marine tank and the base is dead.

...Rocks at the third. What the fuck game are these Blizzard mapmakers playing.

Did they even mention whether horizontal spawns are enabled or not? If they are, then christ, that has to be the worst "macro suitable" map they've ever released. It's like they've never even seen a game go past the five minute mark.

It is not like Z needs any special help by the map pool nowadays. And it's not that bad if you compare it to the early days of horrible maps for Z.

Im glad they have rocks at the 3rd actually. The game was getting so easy on just getting a super fast 3rd. If its cross pos only (which it probably wont be) then the map could be good
