And fuck korean monopoly on mapmaking, they all act like we (TL mapcom) dont exist or something. Edit: The only acceptable map here is Caldeum which is made by jacky i think. he is a know and knowledgeable mapmaker so thats ok. not sure who made the others. One more thing on Broodwar Ports: the scaling in each game is completly different so you cannot just copy a broodwar map 1:1 into sc2 with the same proportions like here. Guillotine, Arkanoid, Transistor, Bifrost and Gaema Gowon will all fail hardcore. and i know what im talking about btw, i made made several broodwarports, propably the best you can find. | ||

Different maps that make players do different things will mean zvp is interesting again. It's exactly what we needed all along. Every map right now is basically the exact same thing. Easy natural, close third, ramp into main, no cliffs, open center etc.. Anything that makes games look different is good imo, even if it's a little imbalanced. | ||

And fuck korean monopoly on mapmaking, they all act like we (TL mapcom) dont exist or something. They came from a different background where MAPS influenced gameplay...instead of letting ONLY GAMEPLAY dictate map design... It's not just about understanding what works. There were maps that were extraordinarily race favored ON PURPOSE...the power of a map is the ability to change what players can or cannot do. SCII community is in this pussy state where they think "Oh, you can't move away from the established map design because then it would break the game! It would bring CHANGE!" That's exactly what they're doing. That and the name value. They are incorporating these maps to try and pull over some of the BW fanbase. And KeSPA especially DICTATED how the game was played through maps, because they didn't have a game developer there to constantly patch and lead the playerbase to bitch and moan. | ||
