After a long wait, the 5.0.7 patch for StarCraft II has been released (patch notes), updating the 1v1 ladder map pool. Deathaura, Pillars of Gold, and Submarine have been removed and replaced by Blackburn, 2000 Atmosphere, and Beckett Industries. All three new maps were submissions to the previous TeamLiquid Map Contest.

Besides the 1v1 map update, patch 5.0.7 contains only one other change: The addition of a portrait reward of IEM Katowice 2021 champion Reynor.

AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

I have no idea what was going on in the background, but thanks ESL I guess?

I hope there will be more communication in the future. New maps should not be a surprise and the community should not be left in the dark.

Anyway, still very thankful to whoever made this happen!

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Is this for real, how long have we suffered in such torment? I take it no new 2v2 or 3v3 maps?

So the intern does have access to the servers! Fascinating!

ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

He probably spent 2 months trying to recover the login credentials.

I did some investigating on the new maps and discovered:

The rush distance on Beckett Industries is 30 seconds
The rush distance on Blackburn is 34 seconds if you dont micro around the slow zone, 33 seconds if you do
The rush distance on 2000 Atmospheres is 34 seconds
There is a bug on Beckett Industries where the game has no countdown

Talk about last minute update. (well, technically it could have been later, but…) I wonder how much players will hate these maps xD

I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Lowest effort possible update, but an update nonetheless.

No announcement, no team maps update, a few bugs, and seemingly zero QA done whatsoever. Usually Blizz tests for performance, and changes some other things for the sake of QA, but this seems like a straight copy and paste from the TLMC maps.

Well it is what it is.

Also Beckett is not a great map and has pretty obvious issues imo (and 2000 atmospheres is pretty boring though otherwise fine), but hey people voted for them.

Was able to check out some of those maps from ShowTime’s stream earlier and love the new layouts and designs. Very sleek.
