Why do not remove also Arabia from the fixed pool at this point? XD Black forest, Arena, Fortress, Island for example
 sounds fun for some early game đŸ€Ł 🙈 ---

Atacama seems to be popular. Understandably as it is one of the few tournament maps that made it to the game lately. I must say I also like it as more open alternative to Arabia. (Much more then Akropolis/Wolf Hill with their tiny woodpatches
 ) ---

Can we just get Nomad as a perma map in the pool. Like why do we need both Fortress AND Arena in same map pool, but we dont even get a single “real” nomad map. (Im looking at you African Clearing, don’t come here stealing my nomad spot from Normal/land nomad
) ---

Four lakes should be in the main map pool, its too popular. ---

Woodless maps are not even fun to play
other than towers and castles in the woodlines, there is no other meta in that map. ---

Random thought experiment: Say you let people pick between one and all options from four map lists: open maps, closed maps, hybrid maps (land-water) and water maps. Would the waiting time for a match go up a lot? I appreciate you guys trying to cater to everyone with a more varied map lists, but I fear that without additional ban options you’re just alienating the open maps crowd rather than drawing anyone else into ranked/"un"ranked. (No I don’t know how to properly incorporate nomad starts into this, let alone megarandom.) ---
