Map pool
 

The new map pool is not good for Protoss

Nuff said.

Okay we will start on Expedition Lost
1: I hate gold bases they are the worst thing in the world i know mules dont work on them but still they are so broken.
2: BACK ROCKS to the main really aren’t a good map mechanic.
3 The Distance from your main to the natural are so far away + YOU CAN NOT TAKE A 3rd AT ALL, unless u max out on 2 base and then try take a 3rd but then you will be dead cause they will have more bases

Pros: proxy 2 gate? yeah nah i dont know.

Secret Spring.
1: inbase natural doesnt work right when a reaper can jump up in your base scout your whole base and pretty much run circles around you scout all your tech and then you just lose.
2. Drops are pretty OP, they are normally the fact you can kill the middle rocks and just doom drop as terran. It’s pretty frustrating
3. YOU CAN NOT TAKE A 3rD i dont have to say anymore to this.
4. YOU CAN NOT BLINK ON THE OUTSIDE ROCKS, theres not enough exit points
5. Map is less favoured if your protoss or zerg just veto it simple.

Pros : none

Vaani
1: Inbase natural yeah cool i can go nexus first into gateway, you going to take a 3rd as toss i dont think so.
2: good luck defending your natural and 3rd at the end same from drops as splitting your army as P is already difficult
3: gold bases right outside your natural i can just lift and fly or if im zerg i can just take it as my 3rd.... same distance from the normal spot ( to the left or right depending on spawn)
4. Worst position of watch tower i have ever seen.

Pros: 2 base all in of nexus first?
Inferno pools
1: mutas
2: drops
3: gg
4. not much to say here part from lets just 7 roach rush a toss or any type of rush 3 rax stim on close positions is pretty imba, almost like metalopolis rush distance except a bit longer
5: island bases are you serious?

Okay blizzard didnt think this through properly cause this map pool has got to be the stupidest thing since 2011 xel naga etc

10/10 good read

Re: Map pool
 

I hope you spend more time testing out different things on these maps than you do complaining

Re: Map pool
 

11/10 would read again.

I do however, like how these maps will stop specific players from enjoying their... boring ass "Turtle Mech"..

Best blog 2015

You play protoss, quit your bitching.

Re: Map pool
 

try playing as zerg for the last 2 seasons.

Re: Map pool
 

Yeah these maps are pretty fuckin' bad and I might swap race. :P

Re: Map pool
 

It doesn't matter how good or bad new maps are. There will always be people complaining about the new map pool(s) in a derogatory fashion because they're all too ignorant to appreciate "change"

Re: Map pool
 

the new maps are fukn terrible

Re: Map pool
 

I seriously think they accidently swapped the 2v2 map pool and the 1v1 map pool or they really ******* like inbase bases

Re: Map pool
 

new maps woohoo

Re: Map pool
 

The maps are heaps of fun

Re: Map pool
 

something something thanks obama

blizzard not appealing to everyone's interests, what's new in the world of gaming

Re: Map pool
 

Let's face it, over 50% of players don't play protoss. This is just democracy at work.

Re: Map pool
 

Seems to me that the maps are pretty shit for all races, so therefore balanced?

Re: Map pool
 

i love the new map pool, exploring the maps and learning the abuse spots has been very interesting even behind all the mass cheese ive hit
