Something you can't tell about Derelict Watcher TE by looking at the image:

There is absolutely no dead air space around the edges of the map which will help tame the drop and muta play that has been bugging people as of late.

I can't even imagine what it would be like to look at Klontas Mire and think it looks like Scrap Station... Why are so many people saying that?

Reclamation look like a good 2v2 map.

Good change by the look of it.

It's actually the opposite. The rush distance is short on Klontas and long on Scrap. ...

I don't know why the hate on Klontas Mire TE, it look cool to me. I like that some map are different then all of the other.

Next, an island map =]

Derelict reminds me of Zoolander.....

Derelict Watcher: Solid map, pretty standard but actually not bad. Area right outside the nat and 3rd looks a little too open, 3rd is rather close and I'd rather there be a 2nd entrance so you actually have to move your army to defend your 3rd, but this flaw isn't anything new. Also Blizzard needs to stop using 3-width ramps as nat chokes, they're so incredibly awkward to wall.

Klontas Mire: Concept is interesting, but 3rd base definitely sucks for Z.

LOL, I immediately thought of that line too but for the life of me I couldn't figure out where it came from. Thanks for reminding me haha.

I hate the protoss ship one. Waaaaay too open and boring in the middle of the map.

TvP on Zerus is going to suuuuuuuuuck. Call me what you want, but I won't be playing a single 1v1 on that map. Lucky for me, I had korhal and newkirk veto'd so I get 2 vetos back =D

BW had Troy, Neo Ground Zero, Ride of Valkyries, Alternative off the top of my head- they were different but they still played well. There was also dumb shit like Flight-Dreamliner, Paranoid Android, Sidewinder, and Space Madness, but for the most part, they weren't actually placed in the ladder pool...

I'm gonna veto Mire either way I guess.

Two of my vetoes are gone, and replaced with only that icky green map as something to be vetoed. How nice. Now I can happily veto Star Station and not feel like I am being punished for doing so.

That Protoss themed map looks really good. Not really splittable and thirds that aren't ridiculous to take. It also looks like Blink all-ins may not be that good on it, which is a plus in my books.

That Zerus map looks interesting. I am concerned it may be a little easy to split but other than that it looks good to me.

Edit: Nevermind, I am not vetoing Klontas. 3gate robo immortal/sentry with mothership core support will be godlike on that map. 2gating Zergs from my own base will be good too!!! Bring back the Steppes of War builds! Wooooooooo
