King Sejong is the best overall. Incredibly unique design and produced complex games, fights all over the map, and a non straight path to the mains reflected the better parts of Desert Oasis.

Overgrowth was the go to map for balance during its era.

I don't get the love for Cloud Kingdom. Yeah it started the whole paths phenomena, but that just made army engagements very linear. Armies typically got caught off guard or the excitement was just seeing if one army could beat the other to expansions.

METALOPOLIS!

Seriously King Sejong is my favorite one
But I do have some nostalgia for the first maps (Metalopolis, Scrap Station, ... ) they were probably terrible, I probably just associate them with the first games I ever played

Daybreak and Cloud Kingdom were excellent up until mass Swarmhosts became a thing.

Overgrowth was a ridiculously good map IMO.

Frost as well.

Cloud Kingdom
Daybreak
Whirlwind

Those are probably my favorite "standard" maps, but then I also have soft spots for maps like Bel'Shir Beach, Dual Sight, Metropolis and Habitation Station.

Am I the only one really loving Ohana? I don't know why I enjoyed playing on it so much but for me it is no. 1 from all these.
Be the change you want to see in the world.

Pretty much agree with OP's list, the one game with battlecruisers was in the Mvp vs Squirtle final. For its time, Shakuras Plateau is definitely up there too...maybe Terminus, Crevasse and/or Tal'darim Altar could be added too since they were a big change in how the game is played, but unfortunately they were all fairly broken.

That's probably it. Just the names Squirtle and MVP are nostalgic

One of my favorites maps that has not been mentioned is Yeonsu.
It was active during the "protoss blink vs terran" era and because blink was so strong back then and in particular on that map it never got the appreciation it deserved
I would rather eat than see my children starve.
