Update (July 25, 2025): We received some soft assurances that TLMC accounts will still be able to publish maps, so we're proceeding with the contest as planned. Submissions will close on July 27.
Update (July 20, 2025): Blizzard temporarily reenabled and disabled map publishing last week, but some accounts have retained map publishing capabilities. We have decided to extend map submissions for another week until July 27 while we seek clarity on the situation.
Update (July 13, 2025): Because map uploads remain disabled ahead of the testing/judging phase, we are extending the submission phase of Team TLMC #5 in rolling one-week increments. The submissions deadline is now July 20th, which will be extended again to July 27th if map uploads remain disabled (and so forth). Judging and testing will commence at the end of the extension period where map uploads are reenabled.
If map uploads remain disabled for so long that we lack the time to prepare the newly submitted maps for a late-fall ladder rotation, adjustments will be made to the latter phases of Team TLMC #5. We are currently considering a number of contingency plans, such as executing a map rotation with previous ladder maps and/or maps submitted to previous Team TLMC contests. We are also pursuing ways to hold some form of WardiTV tournament, even without new maps. Whatever the adjustment ends up being, we are committed to paying out prize money to winning map-makers from this cycle and considering their maps for the next ladder map rotation.
Once the alternative TLMC plans are finalized, we will announce the hard deadline for map uploads to be re-enabled, at which point submissions will close and Team TLMC #5 will proceed in a different direction.
