TDA, awful map and it's frustrating that tournaments still use that map as well. I also think Shakuras and Antiga should be on their way out, at least in the next couple of seasons. Hopefully, Metropolis comes back too.

Taldarim Altar, Condemned Ridge, Shakuras Plateau and Antiga Shipyard would be my votes. I really hate those maps and I would prefer never to play on them again.

Neutral supply depos are needed too. If I get cannon or bunker rushed again ill go insane id say over my time playing this game ive lost 100 games from no talent fools who do that.

Maps id like to see Whirlwind, Muspelheim and Metropolis other than them I don't know.

Blizzard is fairly slow about replacing maps, so by now things have caught up to them and they're stuck with maps over a year old that people don't want to play on anymore. Tal'Darim Altar and Shakuras Plateau simply have to go.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

Add: Muspelheim, Khaydaria, Frigid Pass, Abode, maybe metropolis but it's a bit boring sometimes

For the people QQing about map sizes increasing overall, this would actually be a net decrease I think.

I havnt seen much talk about entombed valley i cant stand that map its probably just me though its still in map pools for tourneys i guess. I have veto'd TDA, Antiga and entombed wouldnt mind seeing them go, but any new maps are always fun to try out and a change up would be nice.

Now Im more convinced about removing condemned or making it no close positions because I couldnt scout a double stargate fast enough and I got caught by ray/phoenix.I was doing almost as well in the graph until the hold
Please dont nerf them.Infestors are fine.

Metropolis is horrifyingly bland. I hope it never comes back.

TDA is nice because it's something different. I don't really like Condemned Ridge, and I simply don't have the patience to learn the new map when it'll never be tournament-relevant, so I'd like it gone.

Would it really be that expensive for Blizzard to just hire one of the better map makers as some sort of contractor? They could even pay him per map design or something. Clearly a lot of their maps are just poorly thought out/or boring or imba.

Add Metro, and make Antiga Shipyard cross-spawn

Remove Condemed Ridge, Shakuras, and I guess Tal'Darim while you're at it

Why would you add Metropolis back? Just take a look at the winrates :/

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-korean/maps/528_Crux_Metropolis

TvZ: 29-56 (34.1%)
ZvP: 25-36 (41%)
PvT: 41-41 (50%)

I'd really like to see Mulspelheim, it has produced really good games in GSTL, and it's a bit smaller than current maps, so it would be quite refreshing

lol @ Zergs voting to bring in Metropolis, the most imbalanced map in the tournament rotation.

But then.. what you expect, when Cloud Kingdom is called a small map.

Delta Quadrant had better balance than Metropolis. So rather bring back Delta Quadrant and Xel Naga Caverns before Metropolis!

Antiga would be fine if they forced cross positions. It's not my favourite of the maps in the pool but it's better than some of the others.

I'd like to see Condemned Ridge, Tal Darim and Shakuras go. TD and Shak are old and not really that interesting anymore.
Condemned Ridge I just don't like for some reason.

Remove:
-Shakuras Plateau
-Tal'darim Altar
-Condemned Ridge

Add
-GSL Whirlwind
-GSL Atlantis Spaceship - not my first choice, but tournament maps belong in the map pool.
-Metropolis - It's imbalanced, but it's still used in major tournaments and it won that community poll. Blizzard never bothered fixing the graphics bug that occurs on Blizzard's Metropolis LE.

Imagine being able to ladder on the latest GSL maps, rather than hoping blizzard replaces one of their terrible maps with some modified version of an incredibly imbalanced 9 month old GSL map.

Modify
•Antiga Shipyard (cross spawn only, no gold)
•Entombed Valley (cross and vertical spawns only)
Add neutral depots to all maps

Removed: antiga/cloud/shakuras/taldarim are 4 maps that need to go.

Honestly all maps should just be replaced with GSL maps and I would be a happy camper.

Why on earth would you remove cloud kingdom?

It's a pretty boring map, although balanced, it only gives boring stale games with some pushes every 5 mins or so.

A map like Outsider that has a circular base heavy layout but is very harass oriented. Love how it allowed completely different ways to play the map depending on which expansions were taken. This suggestion should not be mistaken for Blizzard's atrocious original maps that could only be played a few specific ways depending on spawns.

I'd hope Blizzard completely switch it up, removing like 4/5 maps (Antiga Condemed Ridge Entombed Valley Shakuras and TDA) and giving up 1 of theirs, 2 TL / map making community maps, and 2 GSL.
