love these maps. love biome just for being weird. dont agree with it being ugly, especially since i think it graphically ties into the old tradition of extremely fucking weird bw maps.

Hahaha congrats Kantu!! It is a shame I can't play SC2 anymore, I always needed to use ladder maps because yours wasn't "known" for the others I was playing, so now shouldn't be any excuse, but my VGA... :'(

Hopefully TB will start using these maps so we can see some high level games on them.


With most of them, probably not. They're far too standard. I don't see a reason to use CJ Biome over New Pompeii for instance, which is a more interesting map with the same 5 spawn idea. The TLMCs flagrant dismissal of "gimmicks" is also a turnoff. SHOUTcraft isn't interested in running a tournament with ladder maps, everyone else does that and frankly there's nothing wrong with a "gimmick" or two to liven things up.


Why don't you host a contest then? :o

YES!!!!! TB Plz! I and the other mapmakers have so many ideas that we can't take to fruition because people would whine horribly, Shoutcraft allow us to transform those ideas into solid maps that can be played on, i mean just check some of these maps.

What why? what happened to your graphic card? D:

Foxtrot and Kamala look amazing! I really hope blizz add them to ladder because I would love playing on them. I'm not sure about Biome. I like the rounded shape, but I'm afraid the third and fourth expansions are too easy to defend. We'll have to see I guess.
Great job map makers!

The look of Biome looks weird but that's going to be fun as hell to play on.

What is the size? A map with 20 bases can't be that small....

Well, TL has two options: either they can run a completely irrelevant contest with creative maps (which Blizzard will never even look at and thus they will be quickly forgotten thanks to the WCS map pool dictatorship) or an utterly boring one with some real impact. Not an easy choice.

I liked biome as well. Pretty innovative even if there are some flaws. Having the guts to submit something like this is great. Props to all the creators though, great maps.

Am I allowed to quote this if I censor profanity?
+ Show Spoiler [Expect Critism] +
While Meerel does express himself offensively, I do get where he (as well as the others who criticized Biome in this thread) is coming from. I must admit that I cought myself smiling (frankly, on the borderline of laughing) akwardly when Biome was nominated. With the results announced though, my smile disappeared very quickly, seeing as Biome placed first. I tried to resist commenting it - I really tried. I do not have any kind of hate towards the map nor the author (I actually don't know him, so no offense intented), I just happen to have a hard time wrapping my head around it placing first, when there's so many maps of higher quality. If anybody wants me to elaborate why I think it's a map of lower quality than at least a handful of other candidates, feel free to say so in a private message.


That said, I congratulate both winners - ending up in a TLMC top 3 is a great achievement - something to be proud of. I wish you the best.

I am really curious, why did the Reb Bull TLMC winner (New Polaris Rhapsody) never got played anywhere (except at RBB) whereas the second place is now a staple of tournaments (Habitation Station)

I just wonder what happened, I wanted to check if 2nd and 3rd place still have a chance

Isn't it because of the lava mechanic?

because blizzard is not obligated to use the winning maps for official ladder or tournament pools, it is still their decision. it would be a bit silly for a handful of fans on TL to be able to vote any map they want into the official map pool

And you're more than welcome to do that. SHOUTcraft adds an invaluable platform for maps to be played at the highest level, and in turn add more knowledge about what features work and which don't to the map community as a whole. Franky, I'm glad that we have an avenue like that and Red Bull Battlegrounds where non-standard maps have a place to shine and be seen. However this contest is firstly about providing a balanced maps for consideration for ladder, and with that objective the results are always going to be more vanilla than SHOUTcraft.

Seeing all these talks of "most disappointing TLMC ever" I browsed Liquipedia and... no results?

Damn, that just can't be, so I created an entry for TLMC

It's still very rough, but if you spot any mistake, please, help us =)
