I'd just like to tell everyone about close positions: Yes they're all enabled, and yes all the matchups work with close spawns. I would not have made the map layout like so if close spawn did not work. There is a difference in the thirds and map layour and the agressiveness off the positions, but I assure you that all spawns work.

I don't really get why so many people LOVE neo planet S. It was OK, but the central gimmick of the map, the double gold bases, rarely ever saw use. Instead, in most of the games I played as well as watched, the unique combination of a really easy to take natural and really hard to take third meant that most games ended early with someone unable to secure their third.

both Frost and Yeonsu look like absolute shit maps, incredibly easy to take 3rds with the chokepoints, superhard to take a 4th for zerg and defend against drops. both maps seem to basically consist of chokepoints, at least on Frost it seems possible to surround and flank your enemy but Yeonsu... I smell insta-Veto.

I think it looks awesome for a four player map. I love the wc3 feel to it, got a bit nostalgic when I tried it My only issue with four player maps is that it's so hard to scout openers, like seeing 10p in ZvZ, or detecting proxy etc, but I guess I'll have to figure out some way to be able to defend every early aggression, cause this will be the first season I'm not vetoing every four player map.

We heard and agree with feedback from many of you that a complete alignment on the 1v1 map pool across all [WCS] 3 regions as well as ladder would be cool to try at least for 1 season to check if this direction is better.

The environment of those new maps is kinda not appropriate considering its currently summer.

Look at all the pretties. I´m extremely happy with the TL map contest maps being implemented. I hope this encourages a more regular competition, ideally one for every season. Polar night is interesting, most open map since, I dunno.

Would switch Whirlwind for Neo Planet S in an instant, though.

i wish they had more 4 player maps. those are awesome, even if it was like shakuras where your opponent only had two possible spawning positions.

and are there rocks or something at the island bases? any reason that they don't put a mineral patch or something there so that terran cant just land a cc there?

Maps shouldn't have an easy to take foruth. It's that attitude in map making that has completely destroyed variety in SC2.

If you look at fighting spirit you needed to take another main or natural to get a fourth, which meant you had to move around the edge of the map. Up until now in SC2 there's never any reason unless you're attacking to leave your corner of the map and it's horrible.

I want OSL's beach map.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88
