The Team Liquid Map Contest #9 is in full swing with map submissions closed and judging underway to secure the 16 finalists. The map contest is a chance for map makers to submit their best work for a chance of winning a portion of a $1000 prize. The map contest is also used as a way for Blizzard to find new ladder maps for future map pools.



Previous Map Contests have brought forward maps such as Frost, New Gettysburg, Ascension to Aiur and many others into the ladder map pool. One of the important parts of the contest is the tournament phase in which the map makers, judges and the public can see the finalists in action, being played on by some of the best players in the world. It is the tournament phase which allows map makers to see what changes they need to make to really make their map the breakthrough of the tournament.
