Shakuras and Antiga are the other two oldish maps that need to go, various matchups once again are made harder on these maps and it's -REALLY- hard to take even a 3rd here on shakuras, or a 4th on Antiga (as P this is my most hated map), again in various matchups. Condemned, nice idea but I'm sorry no. Doesn't work, imbalanced and horrible map. Entombed I really like, big enough that zerg has the option of spreading bases but the small ramps for 3 base means you don't have to sit back until you're maxed as P because of this 12min max roach bullshit. Daybreak, Cloud Kingdom, Ohana are all really really nice maps, they are aesthetically pleasing, nicely designed and fun to play. Daybreak is probably my favourite, followed by Ohana. Cloud Kingdom needs some changes for TvP however, PvT is my worst matchup but on CK I do better than other maps. | ||

ESV, Crux, TPW, etc. There is MORE than enough maps. | ||

Make the make pool huge. Absolutely huge, so everyone can play on their personal favorite map withour going threw the hastle of custom games. Of course, more veto's would be nessisary. I would say have 20 maps, and hell, give 10 veto's. It's not like you have to use them. | ||

Entombed Valley is an okay map, imo. It's not great at all though. Maybe it needs forced cross spawns. I hate TDA. ZvZ and ZvP are hell on that map. Shakuras is pretty outdated. I really can't stand all the air space around the mains and and behind the naturals, it makes drops/harass really annoying. When I play that map I always get my opponent on the ropes and then he turns into MMA for 30 seconds and I get effed.  | ||

im surprised tal darim is even still here. needs to go. condemned ridge is just a really dumb map all around. antiga is debatable but i think it should go. cloud and daybreak are good. EDIT: forgot entombed ^^, idk how this map is in non-zerg matchups but its fucking terrible for zvp and bad for zvt. | ||

tal'darim and shakuras are both outdated and should be removed. condemned ridge is a bad map imo and should be removed. the rest are fine. | ||

Honestly the fact that some tournaments are still using Shakuras, Antiga, Entombed etc is downright embarrassing. Newsflash: Blizzard hasn't made a good map ever. They have been internationally known for making great games but terrible maps for over 14 years. There's a reason after like the 1st year of brood war no blizzard map was ever used ever again. I honestly don't understand why some tournaments blindly pick up any new ladder maps blizzard puts out. Maybe since their tournament has to be sanctioned by blizzard (all tournaments over a certain prize pool do), blizzard forces their maps to be in the tournament? I'm not sure if this is the case at all though... | ||
