It is the 3rd base anyway that can be sieged. I do believe that if you know your enemy main is besides your potential 3rd, you will not want to expand there. Unless you do like to expand towards your enemy and expanding in a base that is easily attacked and hard to defend.

Moreover these are testing maps, there may still be changes done to them but the chances of it happening are low. The amount of rage caused by slag pits resulted in only a cosmetic change to the map layout/

I'm more interested is what maps will be removed in order for these new maps to be added in. DQ,SS and Slag Pits are prime contenders. But it's just that Slag Pits is a new map and a lot of people are bored with Xel Naga Caverns.

Also July 1st seems to be the rumored start date of a new ladder season. Given how Blizzard were saying they want a 3month ladder season.

Can't be July 1 since they are supposed to lock the ladder for two weeks before the end of each season, and they would normally announce that kind of deliberate lock.

Oh yes I totally forgot about that. Given that the PTR is also not up with the new maps yet, I guess it will take at least 1 month more.

I'm also guessing that we will have maybe 2 more seasons of ladder before HOTS comes.
