What are peoples first impressions on the new maps?

I really liked Yeonsu, its a pretty standard and compact map but the layout is interesting enough and its pleasing to look at. Frost and Polar night are both way bigger than I expected and the third bases feel a little awkward right now, especially on polar night where I have basically have 3 options to choose from.

Polar night feels like map with easy 5 bases and hilarious amounts of air space to compensate for that.
Yeonsu in it's butchered (visually, i do not like full islands anyway) form is... shortly, it feels standard. Also, i did not notice, but did not Blizzard made those collapsible rocks at that (let's call it 3rd base) close the ramp completely and not half way like in original version?
Frost... well, if it had original textures it would be best 4 player map evah,
P. S. Strangely, i had FPS issues with Crux Polar Night (original version) even on low settings. On Polar Night LE everything is alright even on high O_o.

So the new maps any good? Reviews out of a terran perspective?
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Does any Protoss player has a good way to wall in vs zerg on polar night? If you go for the standard wall in with zealot block, you get awkwardly stuck between your nexus and forge/gateway so like two stalker can attack while the zerg has the best concave on the other side :/

Edit: just saw the thread in SC2 Strategy

as I am very sensitive to light, 2 of the 3 new maps are instant vetoes for me. i hate snow/ice maps with a passion. frost is okay, because only the main bases are somewhat brighter. yeonsu is the most terrible of them all, because one part of the map is dark and the other one is made of pure terror. polar night also is non-playable, even if I toy around with the gamma settings.

I know that I'm part of a very very small minority, but it still sucks. The good thing is that with only five playable maps I can focus more on specific builds on every map.
first we make expand, then we defense it.

I love that blizzard did the same thing to Yeonsu what they did to Ohana - take the map, say it's good, then overhaul the textures.

You forgot Frost. And compared to version on KR server Polar Night LE also feels like map with changed textures (to the better side IMO).

Don't remind me of my wall-in that included natural's CC as part of it (as a terran, obv). Also, what exactly is impossible? Wall-in? i believe it is possible, but hard as **** to do on bottom spawn.

Why exactly? And no, argument 'i want to take 3rd with 1 sentry, 1 zealot in wall and 1 MSC' does not work.

The 3rd with rocks looks super safe to take as P/T.

It's still early, but I think I dislike Frost the most. I hate maps that are so dark you can't make it out on the minimap or, if you are not playing in a pitch black darkness. Polar Night I would love to love, because I think we need small two player maps, but it just feels weird and I've yet to get a third up, because boosted medivacs take about a second to reach it(I'm Z).

Yeonsy seems the most legit.

Frost and dark? someone misconfigured his gamma settings lol
Drops on Polar Night are looking to be painful though.

The forward 3rd base on Yeonsu is pretty hard to hold i think (as Zerg). Just played a TvZ where he burrowed widow mines at bottom and dropped with marines behind the minerals. (Just like earlier in WoL on Taldarim with Tanks). But i love every other thing on this map (and also on the others^^).

Wait, so only 7 maps this season? That kinda sucks.

The only third you can take is the one in the corner. You need to break 2 rocks to get it but even with a FFE into phoenix opening (which is the worst to break rocks) I could start my nexus at 10:00 which is decent.
It's a safe third, but you still can't take it too early, unlike Akilon wastes.
