What's your ideal map pool for a BO5?

Arkansas Hudson Bay Kamchatka High Plains Manchuria

Standard maps hype haha. What are the considerations for putting a livestock map last and high plains not as a first map (potentially nullifying counterpicks)?

oh I didn't think about the order, but there are 2 water maps, 1 ATP map & 2 very standard maps. Which I think for a bo5 is ideal. Maps like Indonesia, cascade range, bengal, are nice in a bo7. But imo I don't like non-tp makes just becuase of how much it changes matchups. Play German v French on tp map & then without tp map. But that's just my opinion.

Ah, I don't really mind the no-TP maps in a tournament setting tbh, atm many civs rely on TPs so having a slight change of pace and chance in what civs are good to first or second pick makes a series more interesting. On no TP maps, civs like british, india, russia, japan, dutch become much more interesting than civs like germany, france, spain, ports so thats kinda an interesting change of pace to me.
