Besides Lionheart and Phoenix, two talented cartographers in their own right that I like, I'll add my opinion on some other favorites as well:

NinjaNic was one of the best mapmakers from the previous generation. He made the Continents of Competition and several others that culminated in the "Particular Geographic Region" that summed up his work pretty well.

Chaos created five archipelagos of Battle Islands, the fifth of which remains a popular battle template in the ladder. Many of his maps were also pretty popular early on.

Among the more recent mapmakers, Absolutely Ethan has done a tremendous job with commissions and is championing the 3D map system.

Rainb00ts has some really tricked out maps. He's underrated. They look pretty much ideal although complaint about Greenland territory names in North America 16k.

yes yes fizzer is great map creator to be fair, but i felt it would be unfair to list him

the final fantasy map is super epic, i hadnt thought about that

turkey is also a rly good map

also, i believe there are some map creators out there who try to create a map for every country, and that is admirable

My TOP-5:


PS. I play mainly SE(AD) and Lotto, so have no idea, what these maps are, but 73.6% of all statistics are right. So make your own conclusions.

Is there a list somewhere of who won (and was nominated for) which Warzone Awards in which year?

You don't need a list for awards, assume Lionheart and you'll be right more often than not. :P
