I'm talking steppes small. Steppes small isn't that small. Try incineration zone small !
Just make them spawn in a shared base. 100% zerg winrate... Then nobody can say anymore that small maps are disfavored for zerg.

Polar night looks soo cold

Korhal sky island needs to stay. I have never seen a boring match on that map.

Will never understand how protoss can dislike Neo Planet S vs zerg. Cheesy is true, but just fyi in Proleague it was more than 70:30 Protoss favored and the single biggest contributor to the matchup overall favoring protoss in that league.

thanks!

Looks like we're gonna have to wait another season to get Gwangali Beach on ladder.
|
wish they would keep neo planet s in the map pool. my winrate on it isn't very high, but I like the map because it's fundamentally different than all the other maps.
|
Thanks for the bigger picture of polar night, finally get a good grasp of the map. Love the neat expansion tucked away in the corner, although its probably going to be a 4th base because of the sets of rocks leading there and blocking it.
First impression makes me feel like its the best of the bunch, but I've ended up hating maps that looked good before.

The map is far from hitting melee criteria I think (custom pictures....), visually assymetric with walkable water + the name. blizzard wont put this on the ladder.

Also Blizzard wants to keep the Starcraft feel intact, thus "joke maps" like fruit land or gwangali will never end on ladder.

The new maps are so cool lol [No pun intended]

I'm happy about that too, I really don't like the aesthetics of that map. Also the games play out pretty weird on that map... And, a Colossus having to walk around the beach chairs because they're blocking its path albeit being smaller than a marine just looks silly.

Hmmm Yeonsu has an island expansion...... GL zergs, have fun terrans :D

Why are people saying this? I am confused:
"4 returning maps: Akilion Wastes Belshir Vestige Derelict Watcher Whirlwind"

It's their opinions on the maps that are leaving and that derelict watcher the imba zerg map is still going to be there. Akilion Wastes going to be the one new map that stays across 3-4 seasons.
I only enjoyed neo planet b/c I could place my proxy stargate in the middle of the map without terran knowing.
