Hope blizzard will fix cliff on this map before releasing it ! What is the problem with map that is bad for reapers? It's not like every map must be good for ones, right!? EDIT: I am noob and i don't know. Please explain  | ||

So the map designer intended to prevent reaper play at all on his map because every single cliff cannot be jumped except the close cliff around the main | ||

So the map designer intended to prevent reaper play at all on his map because every single cliff cannot be jumped except the close cliff around the main And what is the exact problem with that? That's what i do not understand, even though i remember those complaints about reapers not really being useful at this map. | ||

Less strategy available, less fun In my opinion, a map that encourages different strategies is a boon. If all strategies are available on all maps, you'll always do the same thing, which ends up truly forcing less strategy. | ||

and if there are very few strategy for some maps this lead to a very boring game when you know in advance what will come up the argument is a double blade | ||

In general if you look at the map pool, it's very simple : all reaper friendly maps are gone. I am a specialist of reaper play and i don't know how i will now save them from speedlings or just poke some key point on the map. My old vetoed maps were : Derelict Watcher Whirlwind because they are very hard to play with reaper. guess what maps are staying... If you add the new maps to this you have basically 4 maps you can play reaper in Yeonsun Akilon Wastes Frost (but meeeh) Belshir vestige (but meeeh) Forced to play standard from now on. RIP the only very good change of a wol unit.... | ||

4 (with 2 meeeeeeeh) sounds good for reaper play for me, am i wrong? Ah, i forgot, nobody wants to play different styles on ladder. none of them are 'good' and meeeeh its bearly playable. If you want some maps where reaper are good : Star Station Red City Newkirk precinct I play for fun and I found new reaper extremely fun because it's one of those unit that you can actually micro in early game and add a little bit of 'spice' in the usual extremely boring early game of terran. I play very different playstyle but i like to reaper opening with 2 or 3 rax every time because i like it. IF there was only maps where air unit can't harass bases easily because of a lack of 'empty' terrain you will hear cry a lot of people that like air units. I just don't see the point to have absolutely no map where reaper can be 'good' to open with | ||

I want more flavors of Xel'naga towers, that provide vision is weird ways, like in a line or down one arch. Being able to get vision of one path is more interesting than "all vision". Also, Yeonsu looks like it will be interesting. Island expansion are back in style and I like that is can go split map. I just hope it isn't super passive, because I don't need Daybreak part 2. | ||
