I don't mind new maps at all. I do, however, mind all these shitty Blizzard maps. Daybreak and Whirlwind are alright, I wish they hadn't removed Cloud Kingdom. Vestige and Planet S are a couple of odd choices but I don't particularly mind either of them. Akilon wastes isn't particularly good. Korhal City, Star Station, and Newkirk District are all FUCKING AWFUL though, c'mon.

I'd much rather have a lot more variety than 100% balance on all maps, makes it so much for fun especially for observers. As long as we have an average balance of nearly 50% some small imbalances in favor of variety should definitely be accepted.
More gg more skill :)

So many people complaining about the maps. under top master maps barely matter.
And now I notice my last couple posts are complaining about people complaining. This forum has converted me! Anyway that flash vs life game got me so pumped to start playing on these new maps!

Thank god that Blizzard is finally shuffling the map pool. Even the legendary maps like CK or Daybreak shouldn't be on ladder forever.

Veto Korhal, Star, and Newkirk. The remaining map pool with Daybreak, Whirlwind, Vestige, Planet S, and Akilon isn't that bad and almost seems like most tournament map pools.

People were so unwilling to give new maps a chance in WOL, I hope that changes in HOTS.

I want to see new maps in tournaments every 6 months and new maps on the ladder every season.

Its a shame that there are so many good maps out there, even on this website that blizzard just ignores.

Blizz should just TPW, Crux ESV and anyother map makers i missed. There maps are 100x better than anything blizz could make

That's what I'm thinking about doing yeah. Not too bad of a pool with those three gone.

I'm glad someone liked my map pool!
I also really like Scrap Station, we have to see that map again!
