It might not be like any of our other maps, but that doesn't mean any of these will be at all balanced for competitive play. Good BW maps =/= Good HotS maps... Whatever though =/. The point isn't to use broodwar maps, the point is to make it so all the maps aren't the exact same. Making variations in the maps can change gameplay per map, whereas currently you can pretty much do the same thing on every map. | ||

Jacky made that on Xil (WoL Desert) and then ported it to a new snow/platform tileset later. Can't complain since Sanctuary was just plain Shakuras, same as we've seen in previous maps. It did look nice, but the use of the new starship tileset is nice. | ||

Thats why KeSPA so insists on making Fighting Spirit work (and we love that) | ||

I don't think it's a great idea to go crazy with maps now when the players can already go crazy with the new units and strategies in HotS since it's just been released. Glad to see that they're being more conservative with the maps than originally intended. | ||

It's more acceptable for kespa since the tournament they run has to care less about balance because the teams choose which players to send out on which maps. New blizzard maps are published to ladder, which we can't choose which one we are playing on, which pisses people off when they end up playing on an imbalanced map. | ||

This has annoyed me too. The same thing happened with GSL maps too, but with Kespa maps there seems to be an extra element to it. Like these old BW followers seem to consider everything Kespa produces a gift from god, no matter how obviously flawed it is. | ||
