I just played a game on Foxtrot and observed my team mates play some games on them and, I can say with much joy that there seem to be a lot of abusable tank spots, which doesn't do much at the pro level, given that no one makes tanks outside of TvT, but its great news for me because zergs have no idea how to deal with tanks any more :D
Although here is hoping marine tank makes a comeback of sorts in pro play.

No more Frost is weird. It's a great map.
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.

Happy that Alterzim, Habitation, and Waystation are gone. A little surprised to see Frost go as it didn't have any particular problem with it, was just a solid 4 player map.I am very happy that a lot of the TLMC maps made it in. A little disappointed that Kamala Park wasn't one of the map contest finalists that was chosen, but good on Blizzard for letting the community make a big splash this season. Also thanks for picking Foxtrot Labs, my second favorite

CANNOT BELIEVE THEY LEFT IN MERRY GO ROUND!!!

That is the worst efffffffing map no one likes it and it is vetoed in every round of every tournament who the effff made that terrible decision

Overgrowth I am not fond of but at least it isnt as god awful of a map as Merry Go Round.

King Sejong: Meh, don't care either way.

Very sad about Frost being gone. For the life of me I can't imagine the idiot Blizzard has working for them that chose to get rid of that map, one of the most popular maps, while keeping Merry Go Round.

I didn't mind Waystation, but many people hated it, so it doesn't surprise me.

Looking forward to trying these new maps.

Not enthusiastic at all. And the lack of 2 spawns map is something I don't like. We'll see when the ladder editions will be uploaded -they don't seem to be atm.

Blizzard asked specifically for 4p maps this TLMC, so there was not much that we could do about it.

Glad you liked them, i like to put little things like these in all my maps, in some they are stronger in others weaker, but i love to make stuff like that because it rewards better the players that want to spend a bit of APM doing these little micro tricks or cheap tactics, and it is really freaking fun to watch for the observers.

For the love of god blizzard please stop using team maps that have cannon-cheesable main minerals. Seriously wtf, every fucking time.



Congratz to timetwister for getting in with possibly the first playable boring standard map we'll have in 2v2. ^^

My quick and dirty answers to every map:

Foxtrot: ZvP

Go hatch first into 2 base and take a third at a gold. Make sure Protoss scouts it. They will try to hit a timing. Go nydus in their base and win.

ZvT:

Use Revivals 2 base roach+1 carapace and take both golds. Just keep throwing roaches at them till they quit.

Deadwing:

ZvP: Dependant on how wide the inital ramp is (I can't tell from the pictures) you could just gamble on a fast 10 pool speedling all-in. If not just regular 10 pool cause fast 3 base maps make Protoss go Nexus first or cannon rush for some reason.

ZvT: Roach bane bust close horizontal spawns.

Vertical spawns after getting 3 base, run about 12 lings all the way around the map and kill the 2 sets of rocks. Make about 6 banes and 10 lings and sneak them there and just wait. Eventually when Terran is doing that siege the creep thing do the counter. Wait .5 seconds as they go back to their base and look, then right-click move your entire army around their army so as not to set off triggers and kill the army. Win the game.

Long Spawns: Mass creep.

ZvP: Alternate between these 3 builds. 10 pool for Nexus first. Hatch into Roach slowling bust. Tripel hatch before pool and hide a hydra den or muta spire at the third spawning location depending on what you scout.

ZvT: Play like Merry Go Round?

Nimbus:
ZvP: Alternate between these two builds: 10 pool to threaten nexus first into 2 base all-ins. Triple hatch before pool into roach max to stop all other all-ins.

ZvT: Nothing special needed. Watch out for the Ryung 2 base all-ins.

The tilesets for Nimbus and Foxtrot are so DARK. Makes me glad about the WCS GameHeart thing. Hopefully strong colors will make things easier to watch.

I thought your answer was always just to 10 pool.

I'm hearbroken by the loss of Habitation Station and Frost, but at least Nimbus and Catellena look like a lot of fun. Foxtrot looks alright too. I always love to see the strategies that gold bases enable.

I can't believe they are getting rid of Habitation Station. The gold strats are just barely now getting figured out, and they seem balanced enough imho. They are killing the most thrilling tournament map out there right now. Not happy
Terran it up.
