No real surprise here for the #1 spot, I guess this map will even end up being OK with blink all-ins not being that devastating any more. I personally disliked it for its heavy blur and a number of graphical bugs on low settings that set my teeth on edge, but I have to admit it produced a lot of awesome games and had a really innovative setup at the time. Overall a great map that just rightfully deserves to be here, a nice first pick.

Steppes isn't first. Rigged vote.

On a more serious note, I'm happy with CK being in the ladder map pool. It's always proven to be a good map, except for maybe SH vs Protoss. But I play Terran, so that won't affect me too much.

Ok, maybe I missed something horrible that happened in the SC2 community (i'm not "up to date" with the news lately), but why ? Why are they reintroducing these horrible and unplayable maps, that nobody wants to see again... ever. Is this some desperate move in attempt to bring back people, because of nostalgia... or they are just trolling ?

hmm expected that maps would be picked that are okay for every race or allowed standard plays rather then maps that unfavor one race rather heavily. Ladder people are no fun heh.

It is enjoy the off season with some old maps and the current balance and see how that works out. And the numbers will show if you are correct with your assumption that no one wants to play those maps.

I am just curious what the few tournaments that season will do.

Unfortunately CK is madly broken PvT now blink stalkers are insanely strong. But at least people voted for a great map #2 daybreak probably.

I know people are joking when they suggest a fixed vote, but I'm quite curious.

Perhaps just vocal minorities, but from what I saw a lot of people were going for Steppes and the like, surprised CK finished top.

As expected this will really drag out the pain because for instance, Cloud Kingdom is a map I'd like to veto in a "normal" map pool (the blur on this map has always annoyed me and I fear SH will be extremely strong here). So I'm going to be like, "well, I've got only 1 veto left" (no way Steppes isn't in the top 7, alas) and waiting apprehensively for the next maps to be announced... I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Never underestimate how stupid people can be, but expecting Steppes #1 would be overestimating a bit this ability. And to be honest, with how close the results are (the percents are already online), I've got a secret hope Steppes is actually not in the top 7 and only vocal trolls voted for it, but it's a slim pitiful glimmer of hope.

If you notice on the blog post, we've provided the exact percentage of votes received for each map. We've not altered the map list in any way and even after the top seven are revealed, we'll reveal the full order for all 16 maps.

Well you could provide rigged percentages, that proves nothing (was there actually something to ensure the vote was fair, like with a bailiff and everything ?). And honestly if you have fixed the vote so that Steppes and other preposterous maps end close but no cigar, I'll be the happiest man in the world.

EDIT : oh, and by the way, what would be interesting is a tally of combined votes (as it is, I can only see percentages while I'd like to see the amount of votes obtained by each map too) and the abstention rate, especially to know if the abstention was higher in high or low leagues, among active and inactive players.

first map revealed: cloud kingdom.

Ah cool, wasn't suggesting the fine folks at Blizz would rig, more that the majority of posts I saw seemed to be either stating a vote for Steppes, didn't see much love for Cloud
