was my favorite map. really fun games with the two sides and all the snow. I'm a zergie
Edit: as for the other maps I havent had time to play them but they look nice and icy althought i don't like frost. never enjoyed 4 player maps without crosspawn.. never can find my opponents -.-

Hmmm, at some point I'd kinda like to see them throw in a real old nostalgia map, either only one that fits today's balance or revised for balance. Like Metalopolis, Metropolis, Tal'darim Altar, Antiga Shipyard, Crossfire.

I like the spring cleaning of maps this time around. Somewhat a shame that Whirlwind is left in the pool, but the new ones should be cool (though I do not know the GSL map at all).

These Xel Naga watchtowers ruin the map for me again :-(

Those pocket expansions behind the natural are super cool. I like that design and that they can be supported by units by the cliff behind the natural.

Korhal Sky Island was a very exciting map, Im sorry to see it go, I would have much rather seen them get rid of whirlwind or Bel'shir vestige. Oh well

Why the FUCK would they keep derelict watcher!? There's a reason you never see it in competitive play...

Why is Neo Planet S removed?

Why isn't Derelict Watcher removed?

Korhal Sky Island is a beautiful and interesting map, it should be kept.

Just go make Tau Cross, Longinus, Luna and Gaia. Might as well, saw that shit for years in events in brood war.

OR lets go real old school. Get some Neo Jungle Story, Gaema Gowon, Blade Storm, Dahlia of Jungle and some Gorky Island.

neo planet s has a huge dead middle part. just two main routes, hard to take a third, very boring map.

derilict watcher is played at wcs kr qualis

korhal island is one of the worst maps ever instant veto for me. how are you ever going to wall?

OMG, and I thought Derelict Watcher was a bad map.. The new maps are TEEEEEEEEEERIBLE.. Jeez those are really bad maps lol..

The Yeonsu map is gonna be a nightmare for Zerg - no open area to flank - anywhere, as well as all alleys are pretty narrow - GG Zerg and GL on that map..

(Except those who're good with Mutalisks ofc)

The Frost map reminds me a lot on Kulas Ravine.., ofc. though - not having rocks and/or gold is an improvement I guess.. But man - are Reapers gonna be OP on this thing, - look a all the ridges/cliffs surrounding the Main's high-ground.. Probably blink will be strong too..

IDK about Polar night though - seems like it's an island-spawn map, but I doubt since it's already (or at least said as so) a GSL
