As many of you have noticed we have recently changed the 2v2 ranked maps. Now, time for some 1v1 ranked line up tweaking!
First of all, we will be replacing Liberiam Battles and Thawing Glacier with Theta Passage and Canis River.
The first 2 maps by number votes will win and be placed in the cycle and will replace Snoey Triangle and Sentry Point!
Here are the map previews, from left to right:
Arctic Refuge, Fields of Isis, Saltrock Colony, Ambush Pass, Blasted Rock
Get voting!

Thawing/Liberiam were ridiculous.
Fields of Isis might give us a bit of a change...

Bhall, you have Daroza and Eye of the storm, they are very similar to Libreriam.

Thus, I betcha (like me) people will be voting for fields just to laugh at that n00b whose "strategy" doesn't work anymore 
Also: NO~~~!! Sentry Point?!?? Why!!???~~~~

Canis is one of my favorites, as well as Theta.

Isis is a fair map now, but like palms, it is only good in team games. It is STILL the most popular custom game map, and even though Isis is good in 2v2, I don't think it would translate well to 1v1. It simply has too much mass in the bases to work in 1v1 ranked. Consider that it has 16 mexes per starting location alone, and 6 outside of them on either side, and you realize that Isis is a really good map...in 2v2 when the numbers are only 8/3, forcing you to leave your base to reclaim the wrecks in order to fund mex upgrades. 21 free mexes is too much, that's half of Palms right there.
Cybran gains a significant advantage on Isis in 1v1 as well, because of an early Jester over the wreck fields. This is a big deal, because by the time you can get AA to the wreck zone, the Jester has already done its dirty work. Your com can't be at both places, so your com goes to one and an eng goes to the other. A Jester over the wreck field means you can't send an eng there, but the Cybran can. This means Cybran gets the 21 mexes from its side AND it gets the wreck mass.
I voted for Ambush Pass. I liked the map in Vanilla, I don't think it will have changed that much.
