On your list only Yeonsu stands out as a really great map. Other than that I think Apollo matches could be fun to watch and Cyclone is solid. The rest is pretty meh imo. | ||

The only thing I'd like to see is Cloud Atlas' in base natural be mineral only as compensation or 1 gas less minerals. I also love the weird mini paths into the backs of the naturals on the space map. | ||

I also love the weird mini paths into the backs of the naturals on the space map. I was wondering how they'd work. Did you play the map? Do you know what size of units can pass through there? I really like that idea too. Forces you to build something there or put, for example, a Zealot in front of it to block it. | ||

Some of which have glaring problems prima facie that first need to be addressed.Why isnt this set of maps our ladder pool, seriously... Ultimately, a lot about maps can't be decided by theorycrafting, you need playtesting. I often make maps, play them against friends and they find ridiculous holes in the to break them which I have to adjust.

It seems very SC2 style to me. Also: lol @ people getting almost pissed at each other in this thread, and each one seeming elevating their opinion to factual status. Grow up, yeah, the author basically lumped a bunch of makes he or she personally liked into a topic, some other people don't like them and feel therefore they shouldn't be there. As someone who has the dubious honour of getting in. Seriously, it's personal opinion. I will say this, including my map when it's untested speaks a dubious amount of audaciousness, the map throws all rules out so hard you really can't know if it has a modicum of balance without extensive testing. | ||

Always a fan of NewSunshine's work. Wasn't expecting Yeonsu to be so popular when I first started making it! | ||
