Influence yes, and thats why I consider them a reaction, they're a tool to adjust the game, not one to shape

Okay. Thats why you have those vetos. So everyone is happy.

I agree however that they should work more with community mappers. They have some really fun maps, too. But please, please please please don't cry for a map pool of the same x-map layouts. Please. It was super boring. Sometimes I think of Overgrowth LE when I can't sleep.

The beta just finished, that's what made me a little bit angry in your post - "we should try them". I just bought the game and someone wants me to do beta testing... WHAT? Is Blizzard channeling its inner Bethesda?

I agree that boring same style maps are BS too, mostly because tournaments are boring to watch. But tournaments are not BO1 ladder! The system doesn't care about boring games and can generate 1 map several times in a row. And believe me, I don't veto all but 1 map
Where pro player can have different BO3 for PvZ, PvT and PvP, I cannot. I have to veto maps before I start playing ladder. And no one cares that I love PvZ Catallena and hate PvT Catallena. I either veto Catallena or play Catallena

Edit> Not sure whether Blizzard changed veto system now, my copy is already payed but not installed, because Europe.

After playing two games on Ulrena I totally and completely don't get the point of combining the oh-so-close air distance and ultra-short rush distance through the choke with the vast space and additional bases on the right.

I have to admit, though, that Blizzard kept their word and made maps which will produce 'nonstandard' games. Which seems to be a good idea for the WCS offseason.

5 years and they still build maps. Why blizzard why?
There are so many amazing map makers within the community and there'd be even more if it hadn't taken you forever to even include community maps in the ladder pool (amongst other things). Please let those employees who make sc2 maps do something productive with their time. Just stop. Your team is mainly awful at it and it's a complete waste of your resources.
I honestly really enjoyed the most recent blizzcon/ladder map pool. But then again most people wanna play on the same standard maps for years and years...
Would be interesting to know how many of the people who prefer standard maps over and over again came from warcraft 3...

I love the aesthetic on these new maps, they look so awesome. Excited to see what map makers come up with from the new stuff.

Standard is a silly term when there isn't even a defined meta outside of 4 gates.

It's hard to judge maps before the meta settle down. Like, we don't know how blink timings will work in LotV. Your complaint about the Prion Terraces's blink friendly main could be completely irrelevant, for instance.

Blizzard wants to push map diversity. The community is not mentally prepared for it.

Love the unsettled feel of these new maps + new game where everyone is still trying to figure things out. Feels like beginning of WoL to me. I didn't get this feeling with HOTS.

Care to elaborate, or do you just want to throw that out there and say nothing else?
