I can't agree with you more. Proxima is the bane of my existence. That choke at your outside natural is absolutely unreal.
I honestly don't understand how blizzard goes through and makes their map decisions, considering how they wanted to help sponsor and be involved in the map contest, they then just throw the results away and leave us with the maps that people don't like from the last season, and pick new maps that people don't want (as much) for the new additions.

I agree that Honorgrounds is much superior to Proxima. Honorgrounds should be retained, Proxima should be removed.
And can we have a beach-themed map and stop with the overused space station maps.

So nice to see a growing number of people dipping in the pool of "posting"
<3
i'm a bit sad that we only get one sc2pro commenting per tlmc threads, but it is to be expected i guess, they take their queue from the people already in..
maybe
soon
we will have hundreds of posts of casuals and dozens of pro players/commenters
#the dream

I'd really like to see paladino removed aswell. I've yet to talk to someone who actually really likes to play on that map. Also i don't get why defender's landing should be added since it looks mediocre at best and wasn't even in the tlmc finals so i'd much rather see windwaker or hwangsan be added instead of it

I don't think it's surprising that Blizzard isn't looking to choose the top four maps from the contest. They always seem to choose some maps that weren't winners, even maps that weren't finalists (I believe both Honorgrounds and Paladino were non-finalists from tlmc7), and they clearly say beforehand that they will ultimately choose what they want no matter which maps win. I also think it makes sense for them to consider non-finalists since we didn't get to vote on maps until after the finalists were chosen by the TL judges, and so it's not quite like they're contradicting our votes.
Anyways, Ascension to Aiur is very solid and I'd be surprised if they didn't choose it. I was never crazy about Sequencer, but it's fine. Seems to have produced good games, something which I hope people give higher priority than aesthetics. And rather than the other two, I would love to see Hwangsan and Asteroid Barricade. They definitely both look good.
I think it's clearly right to not include Paradise Lost, as awesome as it might look. I love me some cool beaches, but again, layout over aesthetics. Finally, as far as non-finalists go, I'm not sure why they want Defender's Landing. I don't hate it but there must be plenty of better choices. I mean, why not Battle on the Boardwalk? It's a cool rush map and it's on a beach. But that's just one example.

Oh great, more dark or ugly maps, can't wait. I guess grass and trees are mapmakers kryptonite.

I won't deny that this is a problem in Starcraft, and it definitely makes the viewer experience significantly worse. However, the only map of this bunch that is a major offender is Defender's Landing. While Sequencer is a space station styled map, it seems to achieve a nice, clean, aesthetic that doesn't look excessively dark or grimy.
