I can't believe Lerilak Crest made it into the mapool. Sky Shield looks awesome.

I don't like Lerilak much but it's no worse than Ruins of Seras or Prion Terraces (I actually dislike Ruins of Seras the most).

Actually it's far worse than Ruins of Seras. The natural is way way harder to defend, especially for Protoss in PvZ because you have to make a semi-wall from your ramp to your Nexus. Taking a 4th and beyond is also way way way way harder on Lerilak than Ruins of Seras. Prion would be a decent map but easy gold bases make everything weird, the biggest problem is Zerg being able to double gold vs Protoss (Trap managed to punish Armani for it in one game but I'm not sure how much down to Armani's greed that was). To put things into perspective, some pro Protoss would rather play on Prion than Lerilak against Zerg. Central Protocol is by far the most stupid map though .

See, I look at it as a Terran and all I see on Ruins of Seras is an insta-loss if I spawn close by air and a hard game on any other spawn against Protoss. Plus no place for reapers, a wide open natural and the absurd reinforcement distance if you attack.

I can't tell from the image, but is there a small bridge at the very center of Sky Shield?

It looks like it, but I can't tell if it's pathable.

I played Rak'Shir on "asia" and I liked the map very much in comparison to ladder maps. However, the map boundaries were so tight that you can't even center the camera on the main base. Also, Oracle harass was nearly impossible since there was no air space at all. I can see this being a drop issue too. I hope they widen up the camera and map boundaries a bit before it hits GSL.

Honestly, if anybody needs free maps, from an induvidual to an organization, theres plenty of incredible maps on the forums. I'm sure the authors would be more than happy to let them use them.

Still sad Kill the Watchers hasn't been exposed in any way yet.


Aye, my maps are always available (BTTV specifically is using them currently). I feel like KTW's mains are way way too small for Legacy.

Like them. We're still in the stage of figuring stuff out (and will be for a while), playing rather standard maps should help with that.
