automatch/ladder map pool (OUTDATED, SEE LINK)

Most adaptive maps are eye cancer tho (point of reach etc)

Point of reason has some darker colors and much nicer texture blending. Not sure who did that but I could look at that one all day.

What is this whole texture blending meme?

btw: see pictured the actual game area marked in pink, about a solid 5th of the way away from where someone assumes it would be because of low contrast/definition


also beach sand overexposed but last time i told you about that morax you said your monitor was messed up and you couldnt see most colours/textures properly

Do consider making a contest, there are plenty of new mappers sitting around on the discord that could use a lil objective to achieve.

Dear Tokyto,

Thanks for the work you put in. I was wondering if you would please consider Serenity Desert and Finn's Revenge for the next rotation.

Thanks!

Varga pass is pretty bad.

My personal suggestions for the next/future ladder pools:

-I really dislike The Ditch, this map makes me tired and gives me a headache each time I get it (In the map's favour, it's likely my fault because I'm just bad at it, but still, I don't like that map, or at least for ladder).

-In general, I'm not too happy getting 20k maps in ladder, mostly due to the length of games they introduce. Despite that, I have some exceptions such as Setons & Pelagial (examples from the current pool).

-Not a huge fan of Saltrock Colony, but that's probably just because I'm bad at it.

-Likewise for Varga Pass.

-Maps with terrible terrains, like Balmy and Melancholy Hill are quite problematic.

-Regor Highlands is a great 1v1 map I'd like to see in the next pool.

-Twin Rivers too.

-Maps in the current pool I'd like to be kept in the pool: Esgaroth's Ruins, Crimson Feud, Canis River, Fields of Thunder v2, White Fire, and some more which I'm in still debate about so I'll leave it at that.

Please do! A map contest would be pretty fun

As I haven't been playing much this year I'm not sure if this bigger pool is a test or not but....

I was all for a small map pool before - totally changed my mind now and am loving this larger pool!

There also seems to be way more ladder games being played and I've noticed a lot of people playing ladder that weren't before.

That is all!

I think that there are some maps which never get automatched at all and then there are some maps which players keep on getting again and again?

Will there be a fix for this?

I had an exam today so I didn't have time on weekend to prepare the pool

I will have to delay it till tomorrow evening,

very sorry
