That was the WoL version of Akilon I believe

Yeah, the XNT used to be on the high ground next to LoS blockers where people proxies pylons nowadays.

Ravage and Frost look like the top contenders. Can't wait to see some high level play on them.

Noooooooo!!!!! Keru!!!! you Butcherers!!

You could have used the idea i applied to my map Fotra Këpuka and add LoS Blockers with pathing blockers in the border of the natural, that way the lack of highground doesn't affect the players as much.

The way i see the maps chosen will be Ravage, Yeonsu, Frost, Insidious and maybe Koprulu since Electric Circuit only have those 2k hp rocks i don't think it will be enough to stop strong timing attacks, the same with Khalim's. For Strangewood i'm not sure if those changes are enough, i still feel that that vertical path is too narrow, Foresta has a similar layout in the naturals but for my map i made that area more open since it could give serious problems to zerg players trying to get a surround vs a mech army, but other than that the map looks really good with the changes ^^

If blizzard goes ahead and decides to add maps such as electric circuit to the map pool, I hope they are prepared to change the map pool with more frecuency, since having maps such as khalim, Koprulu or any non standard map in the map pool for too long will mean that the players will learn how to abuse the map to the max and that will lead into imbalance in the ladder, and then that imbalance will lead into the players blaming the mapmakers for doing "shitty maps" when it was blizzard fault for not changing the map pool, so yeah, Dkim i know you or one of your minions are reading this, so if this is one of yours evil plans to make the mapmakers look bad and then "rescue" the escene with another of your maps, well props to you because this was planed brilliantly, if it's not you better update the map pool more frecuently when adding non standad maps or you will end up having many angry nerds (me included).


btw i'm thrilled to see the tournament ^^!

This line is the one reason I love that map so much.

It's nice to finally have a map where mech vs zerg actually feels strong rather than pretty much every map in the current pool. I mean I mech every game, but I feel behind purely on the basis of maps half the time.

The lowground main change to keru should be celebrated and not wept over. It was the least interesting "interesting" feature of the map, and would ensure that a lot of the map's games didn't last long enough for the actual cool parts of the map to get used. And, it made no sense to do it (lowground main), it just seemed random, whereas the other features of the map actually make sense. Good map now.
