Welp Season 4 is finally upon us (later in the day or tomorrow for EU) and they did change the 1v1 map pool!!  Nice!


These maps will be removed:

(Wiki2)Backwater Gulch
(Wiki2)Searing Crater
(Wiki2)Typhon Peaks

These maps will form the new 1v1 map pool:

(Wiki2)Abyssal Caverns (non-tournament)
(Wiki2)Antiga Shipyard
(Wiki2)Metalopolis (close spawns disabled)
(Wiki2)Nerazim Crypt (non-tournament)
(Wiki2)Shakuras Plateau
(Wiki2)Shattered Temple (close spawns disabled)
(Wiki2)Tal’darim Altar LE
(Wiki2)Xel’naga Caverns


 


Pretty happy about seeing a few different maps.  I'd have to look but I think I have never or rarely won a match on Searing Crater so I'm glad that thing is gone lol nothing specific about that map that I can think for my losses but I just become flooded with negative thoughts whenever it pops up lol


I'm really going to study these maps and make (or steal) a solid strategy for each.  Tomorrow's blog will start the map discussions - get us all ready for season 4!


Played some team games last night with my RL friends.  Didn't go overly great for me personally but whatever.  I always feel kind of "meh" about the team games.  So I don't know - meh.  :)


I started playing the Single Player on the weekend lol I've had this game for over a year and haven't played the story yet.  so far it is ok but nothing special - I'm only maybe 4 or 5 missions in.  I hate playing Terran - it's the race I dislike the most.  Not even sure why - just doesn't appeal to me.


Missed Kings of Tin last night but they were playing Nik Lentz (UFC fighter) so I want to check that archive out whenever it hits.  Watching E3Demuslim on KOT over lunch today - he's a beast (even though he plays the wrong race :) ).  At the time of this recording he was ranked #1 Grand Master on the North American server and #1 Grand Master on European server - pretty bad ass.


BF3 dropped today.  I loved BFBC and BFBC 2 but I'm going to pass on the BF3.  I find it hard to want to play anything other than Starcraft 2 and my boys won't play BF3 with MW3 coming out in a couple of weeks.  So for now....pass.  Maybe I'll get burned out on SC2 and pick it up down the road (although I think I'd be more inclined to pick up Uncharted 3 instead).

What Biz says 100 percent. You might as well play warcraft. You're dead to me.

And if you don't get Uncharted 3 you'll be dead to Char.

Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.....and can't play more than 1 game at time lol I just can only get behind 1 game at a time - that's just how I roll. Char isn't as shallow as you - she'll still love me - Starcraft 2 warts and all.

If you can only play one game at a time dump starcraft you nerd

Can't - SC2 is the better game :)

Really - you haven't played BF3 - to claim a game is better or worse than a game you haven't played is Nixonian

It's the better genre - and the best in it's genre so by default....SC2 > BF3

Halo wars had to be better because you could play it on the Xbox 360 and it had Halo in the title.

What do you mean you can't get behind more then 1 game at a time? DIDN'T YOU GET BEHIND NIX'S MOM LAST NIGHT?\r

that's not a game - it's a rite of passage....for pretty much everybody with a penis....or a strap on....and some barn yard animals.

Yea I have given up halo for the time being as well as SC2 has it's hold on me. Glad to see some new maps to mix things up as well.
