Pretty ok with it. Maps these days mostly follow the same basic design so it's not like we are learning 9 completely different maps like we would have to do in broodwar. There are a few outliers in this map pool which keep things interesting.

I have no issue with it. It was 8 maps in the pool in Wings of Liberty, and that worked fine.

I wouldn't mind having one map be a 4-player map just to liven things up, but that's probably just me.

Larger map pool with nice looking maps are what's keeping me in the game. Would have otherwise quit due to this dogshit patch (might still if it's not fixed). They should consider adding one more veto, though.

The slightly larger map pool is nice. It could keep the last map in a bo7 from just always being the worst map.

Harder as a mech player since knowing the map and how to wall and defend etc are so important, but seems great for tournaments, and also great if it lets us include more experimental maps into the pool

Sad that black lotus map didn't get in though, it was so unique

I feel fantastic about it. The first time i booted the game there was 9 maps in the pool. I regret that this wasn't kept so i can enjoy it before i stopped playing.

This is nice, though it should come with +1 veto. I wish this was the only change to SC2, since the balance changes are pretty awful. Just revert to the Queen Walk patch, before they got in an messed everything up, and balance the maps around this patch.
