I don't get the thought process behind having the third base covered in creep on Bloody Ridge. Zerg can take a third base with no detection while the other race can't ? This means that has protoss you have no choice but to go robo on this map (unless you are allining) and every twilight council or stargate based build to get a third base is completely denied. You can kill the creep with a cannon on the low ground, but that is a pretty big investment just to open up the possibility to take a third base, since you probably won't going to open with a forge on this map.

My thoughts.


If I'm not mistaken, since the creep tumor is neutral, Zerg's would also require detection.


If I see things correctly the tumor doesn't block a hatchery. So it's just to give Zerg an easier time to take a third expansion compared to toss/terra, since the natural is basically inbase, making it impossible to punish aggressively for Zerg.

Super cool, I wish there would be a channel to play on these maps... (I know I, I know, why don't you make one yourself...)


I just wish there was an open game list. Could you imagine how many more games on ESV maps would be played if you could just join a lobby called "looking for mid diamond player 1v1 on ESV Odd-Eye" ?
Maybe 1.5 will fix that tho, from what I saw there was at least some kind of open game list for custom maps.


Oh I see. Now I feel stupid xD

That would be cool indeed,,,

Gauntlet, Colosseum, and God's Garden look particularly good.

Collosseum isn't Collosseum if you don't add creep and a sunken in the main's choke!

God's Garden is looking great, but I wish they stuck with the original's grass theme.

BW maps are freaking sick good

Thank you ESV map making team! You guys brought over two of my favourite maps from BW, Collosseum and God's Garden (memories of epic micro fights on the high ground of the backdoor expo). I guess for SC2 Collosseum is better balanced as 3 spawns locations, not 4. Will try out. Thanks again!

I would love to see Colosseum in tournament play. That LOS blocker is brilliant.

Ahh... Aesthetically pleasing maps that are also the product of great strategically balanced thinking and a brood war heritage... ESV, I just want to get a bunch of fellows I can compete with (I know that also means low enough level but bear with me) and grind out a 10 hour marathon every day for a month with them. Great job!

Finally brighter tile sets are catching on! I prefer bright maps over dark ones any day. Good job by the way, all the maps look great!

Will these be used in the Korean Weekly? Would love to see top level pros playing on them.

These maps are great, especially Gauntlet and Bloody Ridge.
