Map rotation should speed up and eventually be regular, at a much faster complete replacement than now.

Would be awesome.

Can't tell if half the people in this thread are trolling. I can't even tell if Kespa is trolling. These maps are going to be awful for the game we have. And when I say awful I mean we'll be seeing things like mass marines as we did on maps like steps of war. Not because of distances this time, just because it's the most affective with the map layouts...

I can't even begin to comprehend all of the exploits these maps are going to lead to... half of them don't even have an accessible 3rd base. Nightmare for protoss... I'm sure other maps have their imbalances for other races as well...

I have no other words than this: This looks really, really awful.

Because maps that allow you to get a free third and mass bl infestor or colo balls is interesting

I am very excited. Yes, there may be "racial imbalances" with new maps, but that is also because the understanding of races today is based on very macro-oriented maps. I think it is very good that there are maps to mix up the way we play. Maybe these maps will change up the stale metagame and give us actually interesting games.

No one remember Crossfire aka Peaks of Baekdu? That BW map did not really worked in sc2. What is Kespa thinking with this stupid move? They should know the game better and see that the these maps cannot work with sc2 gameplay.

What do they have to lose?
Why not give it a try?
If the result is bad they will take other maps for next season.

Crossfire didn't work, but it did bring some variety. That's something that is lacking heavily in sc2 right now. Every map kind of plays out the same, you take your natural, you somewhat safely take your third, you max out, and whoever wins a key engagement dictates the outcome of the game. Games have gotten way longer and in most cases a whole lot more stale (especially ZvP). We need some different map layouts that will stir things up. I don't want to watch games being played on daybreak for another whole fucking year.

Depends on what you mean by "sc2 gameplay." The current map pool is balanced and good for macro games, but some matchups have gotten stale to the point where any change seems like a good change, even one that risks going back to the days of cheesy play and all-ins.

How is that an argument? Sure we'll have shorter games but they'll probably all end up one way.
