How HOW did Klontas Mire survive longer than Metropolis?

Anyways, looks like they fired the guy who did that and used better maps for this season. CAN'T WAIT!

Because Metropolis was bugged, duh.

Can anyone point me towards any good games that have been played on Korhal Sky island?

Good that they removed those maps. Boring maps to replace them with tho. Red city is so big and you always have to attack up a ramp or in a choke so the more you turtle the better. The other map looks decent, however I'd have liked to see some new not-so-big two player maps, kind of like the size of Neo Planet S.

I like DMZ better than Red City, but that works too

hell yeah!
Terran will love Red City LE with the small chokes, and especially that raised section at the nat to plonk some seige tanks on!!
Zerg will love Korhal for its width, and cross spawn large sides for muta harass :D

Both maps look really hard to secure a third though =[

Out of curiosity what was peoples opinion of Zerus? I haven't played much ladder this season but I've only had 2 games of that map, I'm assuming everyone just veto'd it. I can't believe a beta map as bad as star station is still in the pool (and even worse still in tournament play, almost a throw-back to when Xel'Naga Caverns was a regular tournament map, crazy).

Focusing on the positives though with Mitr out I now have a free veto and the two new additions look very good.

I liked Zerus, but that's probably because I play Zerg and only played a few times on it. I definitely prefer Red City (another potentially Zerg favored macro-map) over Zerus though.

I think Derelict Watcher got more praise than it deserved; it's just that Klontas Mire was so awful that you couldn't help but think Derelict was good by comparison. It hasn't been used in any (real) tournaments for good reason.

They should remove Derelict Watcher and Star Station and add the new OGN maps, to be in sync with WCS like they said they would. New Fighting Spirit also should've been a top candidate

Man if only Fighting Spirit isnt so protoss-heavy, it coulda been featured in the next 25 seasons

I would also love to see Naro Station replaces Akilon (NR30, stale PvZ etc) or Belshir Vestige (too linear, too Ohana). Its latest rendition is played out quite nicely, no more toss-favored

Oh and Gwangari Beach sounds like best map ever already

I think I would prefare Zerus Prime in map pool than Red City. I feel like later in season it'll just become a forcefield-fest. but itll probably help with low protoss win rates atm.

I wont veto any tho Veto'ing a map is just lame. Just deal with it.
