EPTIt is nice to see 3 new maps added. Hopefully tournaments won't be reluctant to change their map pools. If it's one thing that personally drags the game down for me as a spectator is allow pros to choose what maps they play on. When you give an option to the players we consistently see the same maps match after match, that is no fun to watch.

I don't understand why there's a need to remove so many maps. Korhal was weird, I couldn't figure out how to play it on certain spawns, but that made it interesting to me! Keep more maps, make a bigger map pool for ladder. Increase vetos if needs be, but it's nice having a bigger map pool. There's less need to have maps that are extremely varied, or homogenuous, you can have a few quirky ones mixed in there. | ||

It just tends to stick to a one-in, one-out policy, and cool and functional maps get discarded too often for my liking. As somebody who runs online tournaments over here, it is a lifesaver to have a big ladder map pool, gives me more interesting maps to pick from that participants can reasonably be expected to practice on. | ||
