I'm looking at these largely in therms of being able to defend against blink and I find that Waystation could be (most) problematic when spawned in the close together position.
I Protoss winner, could it be?

I dunno, damage might have already been done to the community. Only hardcores have stuck around now.

I'm really looking forward for Merry go round.

I like the colours, and I think this will bring a lot of new strats for defending the base due the uncommon placements.

Should've removed Alterzim and added outboxer.

Even if we needed four new maps per season all from the community, we still get that now.

I think you overestimate the needed size of the mapping community (for ladder maps). Custom maps/the arcade are much more likely to suffer from a smaller mapping community than the ladder or tournaments. Those things just don't really require very many maps or a high rate of content creation.

I´d have loved to see Outboxer as well in the map pool. Sejong Station and Alterzim are my vetos I guess

At first glance the team maps seem to favour longer games, with more common start locations, more easily defended naturals (without rocks!), and more bases per player in general. Nice, looking forward to play on them!

I still can't believe Alterzim is still in.

Yeah I don't see how they kept alterzim and got rid of Heavy Rain. We saw more great games on that map than on Alterzim.

Whatever, can't wait to get home today and lose on all the new maps!
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

probably gonna veto Alterzim, Habitation, and Merry Go Round. I really like Overgrowth for some reason. It's just so pretty

I feel like PvZ is going to be tough on some of these. The distant 3rds and large chokes at the nats mean FF will not be as good both on offense or defense. TvP may also be rough with how weak blink will be, and trying to defend drops. I foresee a lot of 2 base all ins from toss. Taking a 3rd will not go well for toss on these maps. I'm curious as to the thoughts of zerg and terrans on this, as well as better protoss's (I am bad at this game XD )

Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like all the mains are almost surrounded by impassable terrain (unless by air).

Personally I've always disliked Frost and dont know why they've kept it in for so long. It's kind of dull too, actually. Overall as a Z player I'm pretty happy, considering the previous seasons havent been very kind to zerg recently. Waystation seems like a challenging but interesting map to play and i just love the aesthetic of Overgrowth.

Nice, most of old shitty blink all-in maps out! HoTS might be worth playing again?

New maps looked pretty good except King Sejong, that looks even worse than Polar night. Let's see how it plays out.

Yeah, I totally agree. I loved Heavy Rain altough I´m playing terran. They probably only got rid of it because of the blink-all in whining.

Add rocks to the island base
We’ve heard that some players feel that rocks should be added to the island bases to make expansion to these bases more difficult. We’ve discussed this topic, and we’d really like to see how the island bases play out without rocks. This is a topic we are still discussing, but we’d like to push to keep these bases without rocks.

Blizzard is fighting to keep rocks out of a map that the community wants to add? What planet are we on? What century is it?

They didn't necessarily say they were against the idea. They just said they wanted to see how the map would play out before adding to the map. There is a difference.
