WCG Neo Legacy of char v2
Difference: The main bases are made longer from where they used to be, the ramp is made close to 2nd natural, the cliff at 2nd natural is removed and the middle ground is made with unbuildable terrain. For
this would mean a great disadvantage from the old version. Terrans fast exp is useless due to the fact that 1st nat has no gas (in TvP matchup offcourse)
can no longer build fast expansion without risking it(exp even worse then 12 at lotem) and they now would need the fast 3rd hatch at ramp to secure it. The mutalisk harass is harder due to the placement of the ramps, cliffs no longer accessible, but the mains give macro zergs a huge favour.As
this would look better than the other races. Their chances vs have increased enourmously but vs it's like 40/60 in zergs favour.WCG Lost Temple v2
Difference: Not much to say here, it's almost the same old unbalanced map. The Islands have been changed a little, but not much.
WCG Neo Jungle Story v2
Difference: I find this really ridiculous. The main bases have been moved from upper to lower main making the mineral lines look like a game of Dominos.
WCG Neo Hall of Vallhalla
Difference: I must say, I really like this new design of the map. 2nd naturals have ramps down, the 1st natural is built on highground and the corner expansions now accessible without any drop methods. Even the middle has been changed by enlarging the entire wall making it hard to defend. One thing is for sure, we will see some new strategic moves.
The question now is if the WCG qualifcations such as France / Germany / USA and Sweden will use these maps in the important qual-finals.
