Hey, GSL is slowly but surely moving away from those maps :p Kind of unfair to criticize GSL when they are the only ones who actively push for new map pools.

If they're the 'only ones who actively push for new map pools', I wonder what OSL could be considered if new map pools persist, which no doubt they would considering they had done so in BW.

I really fricking hope this screws up the metagame on those maps and then due to popularity these maps get drawn over into ladder and other tournaments. Seeing the same map pool every tournament/ladder season is getting really tiring.

Caldeum is made by Crux_LS http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=364336&currentpage=All
It also appears on Crux website for a while but got deleted. According to his sign, LS has worked for KeSPA and apparently, the map is ordered to be removed from TL and Crux

Really hope they make new maps to shake the metagame up. Maybe introduce even more map elements like backpaths or cliffs that can be abused.

Well they were forced to remove atlantis spaceship and metropolis which was ok.. But what've they introduced since? Belshir vestige? looks like another big zerg map. Abyssal city is big and heavily favours zerg against terran so far. Whirlwind is awesome in tvt but has problems in other matchups. They still seem to have a "bigger is better" approach from what i've seen.

I don't really care that these may be slightly imbalanced, it's not like some of the larger maps like Whirldwind aren't clearly Zerg favored anyway.

I just love that they're so different from standard SC2 maps, I'd absolutely love it if they had tournaments with only maps like these.

GOMTV introducing only 1 new map for a season is such a joke. Maybe now it would be intresting to watch SC2 again.

These maps do have a ton of issues though...specifically, how easy the third base is for P in PvZ (shared with the new GSL maps though, it's no surprise every game on there is an immortal all-in), and most importantly the lack of ramps to defend the main base, which is what keeps PvP from turning into a random bullshit 4gate fest like on TDA and Bel'Shir Beach.
ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

They look so much smaller than the originals. Well, like everything, but anyway.

I guess the comment i must make is kespa should collaborate with gom. They need very similar map pools orthey risk fragmenting tourneys. If gom and kespa go 50/50 on maps or some shit then all foreign tourneys will adopt those maps as well

Uhm, if they really go with that Cladeum map, I expect a 70%+ win rate for Zergs on that map. I mean it's cute that everybody is praising Kespa for being oh so innovative, and I even agree we could use something to shake up the meta game, but this doesn't look like a step in the right direction. I hope to be wrong...

Finally some new freaking maps!

All the custom maps made be the community and the major organisations have been the same old style of high ground main, narrow/fairly open natural then easily taken third (Metropolis, Antiga, Cloud etc.).

Now we're getting some different maps that can really be interesting in terms of how it changes the metagame and will push it into new directions. Massive props to kespa for having the balls to change things up.

I am really looking forward to seeing how the BW maps play out.
