Really? Dasan Station? I thought Blizzard learned their lesson about how crappy backdoors into mains are all the way back with Blistering Sands. Well, looks like it will be a VERY popular veto so not too much of a problem, I guess.

I give that map one week before they say "it seems adding Dasan Station was not a very wise decision so we'll add back Dusk Towers"

Rofl you're right. They took out the back rocks. How is Protoss going to take a natural?

It's a shame blizzard didn't contact you about this. Perhaps they could have included you like they did for jacky

as I said in my post it remains to be checked if P can't wall both those entrances with 3 buildings + a pylon since the ramp seems small in the preview

Still a decision I can't understand...

Personally I like building carriers on Dasan Station.


Shameless plug here for combating map pool woes. Map makers please get into contact with us. (I will try contact the map makers anyway).

It was absolutely not supposed to be that way, the whole design of the map was based on having a natural that you can take normally. They fundamentally changed how the map is going to play out and didn't say a word to me or anyone else.

Also the maps are published, so feel free to compare the correct version, named "DF Galactic Process" and what Blizzard decided they wanted, named "Galactic Process LE".

Lol, seems like the consensus on Dasan is a resounding, "What the actual shit Blizzard there goes 1 veto".

They stepped it up this season. Dasan is clearly a map where someone was like "let's bring a new start of 6-pool like cheeses"

Extremely disrespectful thing to do. I don't get why they ask for community map makers help and then make their own baffling changes anyway

Wow that's pretty disrespectful of them. Blizzard needs to know about this on Reddit and on their own forums. Is there a contact you can speak with as well? Or maybe speak to whoever was in charge of the map contest?

I don't really post on or browse reddit, but I plan on posting threads about it here on TL, as well as battle.net. Furthermore, there is a community summit taking place soon, where the concern will also be brought up(time permitting). I'm open to communication about making changes, even though I don't see why these changes were made. My problem is there was none, I heard Galactic Process would make ladder and I assumed it would be the exact map I gave to the admins of the TLMC. After all, I had heard nothing about any further changes. It really makes me question whether I want to make more SC2 maps, when even if I'm lucky enough to actually make ladder, I still get treated like a 2nd-class citizen under Blizzard's thumb, it's supremely galling.

I'm fine with giving Galactic Process a shot. Dasan Station, though, is getting vetoed straight away.

I've got the TLMC version of GP open right now and I'm tabbing between that and the one Blizzard have previewed in their blog. They seem pretty similar, barring a couple layout and rock changes (the third's a wee bit different), I can't spot any visual differences besides.

I agree they shouldn't have changed your design without consulting and that their rock removal is bullshit but it doesn't seem as bad as you make out. Am I wrong?
