I think lava should be added to define the game phases (when to attack and when to macro up to the later phase of the game). I think the parts that are lavaed are the "bridge" parts highlighted in white!

My first Dragoon post yay! :D

Blitzkrieg looks really nice. The rest don't look too bad either!

Once again, I wonder how close I came. It's hard being passionate about something for so long and not seeing much in the way of validation. I will continue to map and hopefully my break through will come, I just hope another opportunity arises soon.

It's about making SC2 better, right?

Can't really argue with the picks, most of the submissions will be dandy, just want to see a ton of games on sweet new maps! Well done e'rbudy.

p.s. GO LAVA

My own map aside, I really like all these maps. Might be the first time I've said that about an entire set of contest finalists. I'm really interested to see how all of these play out.

Concerning Shrieking Breeze... It doesn't have building blockers on the ramps which I think could be good, since a block would only be able to force a zerg to expand towards their opponent in close positions, and that might be pretty balanced and an interesting option. Expanding towards your opponent there wouldn't leave you too vulnerable to rushes since you can knock down the rocks.

But tbh I forgot all about them when making it.
all's fair in love and melodies

I forgot them too but I have no clever excuse I can make up.

Breeze looks awesome symmetrically. Just realize the rush distance in cross spawn before breaking the rocks will be super long
Only Synapse looks rather ordinary, which might guarantee it a top spots lol

Great selection. Definitely didn't realize there was timed lava on New Polaris Rhapsody which makes it even more awesome. Synapse is probably my favorite though.

It is refreshing to see the new maps break away from the current paradigm. Well done.
Vote for change.

new polaris rhapsody is bugged.Timer reads gibberish and a gas on the natural for the sw base is unbuildable.

The maps should be checked thoroughly. I don't have time to do it. There could be more problems as well. I noticed the New Polaris Rhapsody thing a few days ago and now that it is a finalist I figured I should say something. I confirmed the same problems on the TLMC version.


Yes u are right, though it is se natural. On sw there is no natural

I think this is the first map tournament where I didn't make an appearance :O lol my submissions were older maps so I wasn't expecting much. Congrats to the winners! All great choices.

Congratulations to the finalist's.

Am a bit surprised about the map results though, i felt the maps had more strategic variety and 'shaking of the metagame'(lava map aside) at the last TLMC where in the end only the standard maps got voted for the winners.
Also would love more blinkable positions like in Cloud Kingodm to allow for different openings

Really glad to see that map makers are starting to get rid of the Watchtowers <3 good choice.
I would so love to see Blitzkrieg without the watchtower in the ladderpool.

Looking forward to Red Bull tourney.

Some of them are really nice and innovative, some are not. Sad to see some very innovative maps fall out.
