Here is the list of maps in the teams matchmaker: https://zero-k.info/Maps?mapSupportLevel=3&size=Any&sea=Any&hills=Any&elongated=Any&assymetrical=Any&special=0&isTeams=true&is1v1=Any&ffa=Any&chicken=Any&isDownloadable=1&needsTagging=false&search=

The teams matchmaker has not been active for long and we should put more thought into the included maps. At the moment I am open to switching maps between the matchmaker and featured pool as this operation carries no risk of messing up the game build. Does anyone have any suggestions for maps or criteria?

I think it would be reasonable to do an update on the teams MM map pool sometime soon.

I think featured pool would work for teams. If anything we should start tagging maps 1vs1, 2vs2, 3vs3, 4vs4. You could do this by adding a "team size" field. Rather then having a new pool for team MM.

The maps used for teams matchmaker are those that have both tags.

So featured map are already part of team MM? I do not remember playing on a featured map.

No, I guess my link does not work. The maps are those with "Matchmaker" and "Teams". Do not change the settings on any maps yet.

The only issue I see is that some of the featured team maps are likely too big for 2vs2. But maybe ok in 4vs4

I feel I end up playing a lot of Titan in 2v2's, which feels kind of too big for it, although I guess it's only a bit larger than Comet (Though also hillier though). Then the next match is Living Lands, which I always comrush on (But at least it has diagonal rush distance). I suppose this is 'variety' at least.

It depends how consistent you want the experience to be, but if we're going to have a range that large, we might as well have a larger map pool as well.

Looking through the featured maps I would consider Otago, Obsidian, Isle of Grief, Iceland, Archers Valley and Shimmershore for teams MM. If the option existed to limit by team size I could come up with a few more.

EDIT: Shimmershore might not be deployed at present. Paradise Lost is probably the best small teams sea map among those I am sure are deployed.

Other options possibly better suited for 3v3-4v4 teams are Valles Marineris, some variant of Folsom Dam, FrostBiteV2 and AquariusCrossing.
