New maps are always exciting. Good to see Tal'darim gone, I guess? I've had that map vetoed for a couple of seasons now.
Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.

I think its time for a 3rd party ladder to rise up and replace the Blizzard one ------- before they kill their own game by insisting on making their own ladder maps.

The way they insist on making the middle of every map un-passable due to watchtowers is just annoying.

Is that actually possible in starcraft 2? Doesn't blizzard control their game against piracy and that kind of stuff? I would Love to have such a system to be honest. I think it might increase the interest in starcraft 2.

Dustin claimed on twitter that they will discuss is after new year and since this was released in 2012, there is still a chance!

if they remove the towers on Newkirk it is a completely different map to play.

They should have removed condemned ridge instead of tal'darim altar. Newkirk sux, they could have put whirldwind / metropolis instead.

why is condemned ridge still in the map pool... and correct me if im wrong but havent players considered hots ladder maps to be complete shit?
I dont like these changes at all, sure shakuras and Tal'darim are very VERY old maps, but they were balanced and good maps because of that (fine TDA without rocks should've been removed but I dont complain as a zerg player :D)

That Newkirk map looks like a nightmare. Especially after 4 bases ><

Ugh. Some change is better than none, but the maps are still so-so.

Well, Blizzard just freed up 2 of my vetoes!

I guess this means I won't have to play the cloud blinkdom and antblinkga blinkyard maps anymore, for reasons I will keep to myself. I have to wait and see (and feel )how the new maps work for certain protoss 1-base-all-ins though.

Kinda hoping that they start adding more GSL maps in to the pool, they seem to play out better than the ones that Blizzard make up themselves. And it is always nice after watching the GSL to jump on SC2 and play on the maps you were just watching.

I'd rather them add maps like Arkanoid and Caldeum/Bifrost since every game I end up playing on GSL maps plays out exactly the same it feels like.

I give these maps a passable, though I wish the areas in the middle were slightly larger. I don't know why blizzard does not want me to have room to fight or to have my units clump up into unusable balls. The towers are still in weird places and super easy to claim.

I agree. I certainly wouldn't want Whirlwind or Bel'shir Vestige on on ladder since it would make things even more passive than they already are. The Proleague maps seem much more interesting even if they are a bit gimmicky compared to what we are used to (though that might not be a bad thing).

I'm sad that Tal'darim is gone and condemned is still in, condemned is HORRIBLE.
