I strongly disagree with some of the choices for both best and worst maps, but hey, matter of personal taste | ||

People should try to understand what kind of approach the author did though. It is, as whitesatin said, a matter of personal taste. Terrible maps is a easy one to make Best maps is very debatable. | ||

Overall I think its just wrong to compare maps that have a huge time difference between them, I would make a chart for best and worst maps per time, not one huge list. For example XN C was one of the best maps for its time, while today it would be a bad map, the same can be told on a few other maps. Its nice and all you want people to discuss maps, but for a discussion the OP is rather poor, you mostly gave us a list and explained why you chose the maps. I wouldn't mind this thread as a blog, but other than that this is just silly. EDIT: after reading the comments you can easily see why you can't define a good map, everyone has a different favorite and good / bad map list. | ||

In my opinion, your top 4 is the right without a doubt, but I'm quite surprised by you putting Crossfire in top 5. This map is just meh. Antiga does not deserved to be in a "worst map" list. | ||

They were all extremely important in terms of the history of SC2 map making. By today's standards it is easy to point out their flaws, but I do think its fair to say that without those maps the scene would look different than it does today.

Antiga is definitely one of the worst maps, especially when you consider that the first version had gold bases and a warp-inable natural. That map should have been removed a long time ago. Daybreak is now a tournament staple. Nice writeup, Barrin. I'm interpreting the lists to have taken into account the time that they were released as part of the judgement criteria ? | ||
