There are tons of cool ESV and GSL maps, yet we only get that ?

Disappointing for me~

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.



If there's really enough demand for it, I don't see why a ladder set up like the original WGT wouldn't work.
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

People need to stop with the hate on these maps. Where I will say these maps are by no means great, they're not too bad. Additionally, they are significant improvements over what they are replacing. People should instead be thankful that TDA and Shakuras are finally gone.


Please... Don't applaud mediocre maps, and actions taken towards implementing them, when it's a SIMPLE, EASY fix that they're PURPOSELY avoiding. I'd 100% rather play TDA and Shakuras than half of the maps in the HotS pool right now, and saying that has nothing to do with these maps is completely inaccurate because we have been proven by history that the HotS pool will not change much from what it is now.

Try denying drops PvT, especially in hots with booster medivacs, on a map like Newkirk against top level players and then come back and tell me we should be happy they switched the maps around.

(Akilon is an "okay" map, but that isn't the point I'm making - If there are already better maps why settle for something worse)

I'm glad I get my 2 vetoes from TDA and Shakuras back. Would like to see whirlwind in the map pool though. Maybe another GSL or Kespa map too.
If at first you don't succeed, redefine the parameters for success.

I know I'm going void/prism sentry drop PvZ in Newkirk...

I just don't understand, we have awesome maps both in GSL and community made, but we get the hots maps.. dissapointed to say the least...

I actually like both of these maps.

I'm more disappointed that Cloud Kingdom remains.
One and only.

Nice to have new maps, but I'm still disappointed in blizzard. They said they wished to work with the community and help incorporate more player-made maps like cloud kingdom and daybreak into the ladder poll. We have maps such as Bel'Shir Vestige, Whirlwind, Abyssal City, ESV Abode, ESV Khaydaria (this one being IronmanSC's last map).

Blizzard still isn't working with the community and this is worrying to me. Hopefully with HOTS they can move forward and add in more community made maps into the pool.

Is it just me or do both maps seem ridiculously T favored vs P due to the HUGE drop area?


You mean the fact that the ground area doesn't extend right to the edge of the map, making it ridiculously easy to intercept drops and stop harass, so you have to work harder?

Aw, shucks...

they need to just do a WHOLE NEW MAP POOL for EVERY NEW LADDER SEASON. So sick of seeing they same damn maps with the exception of 2 new maps. It gets old so damn fast.

i totally disagree, we need a pretty stable mappool with only 2-3 getting exchanged every season. but they should finally stop putting in "totally fun and innovative" kind of maps, which dont have the same purpose as what the ladder is about: competing. the unranked play in hots can have whatever maps, "totally fun and different" maps, but please not the ladder.

nah, that would be to hard for the pro's to realy get used to them,

or else you realy have to cut down the number of maps to like 4/5

but maby onces in the 2 seasons would be great.
The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.

When will Blizzard understand that we don't want to play on their shitty maps?
