I think its a stupid assumption that somebody like AZ would make a thread to comment on the poor choice of maps this week if he was some newb that could only play 5-6 maps and in reality had no right whatsoever to talk about map choice.
I'm not exactly chuffed with the choice but I'll play almost any map so... I really couldn't care less.

In actual fact I kinda like it when the maps are like this because it means the people are out of their comfort zone.

you seriously think anyone going to play anything besides RH3 and collo? how is that out of their comfort zone.. plus every imbalanced matchup there only going to give people an upper hand on you if they good and know how to abuse it

I never said he can only play 5-6 maps, i'm saying he seems to chose a limited number of maps when there are a bunch of balanced, fun, and relevant (as in played in Korea and on iccup by top players) maps out there. And there are always a couple of those maps in the MotW list.
And who's talking about "the right to talk about map choice"? Why wouldn't he have the right to voice his opinion? I don't get that comment you make.

I think you misread my post, or my english writing is just dreadful.

What the hell man? I'm making the comment that I like it when the map pool isn't LT/LUNA/PYTHON/TAU CROSS because everyone has played those maps a LOT..
When MOTW's like this with lesser played/new maps people are out of their comfort zone aka they are not playing the same maps they always do 24/7....

Seriously what is your problem? Your post is some weird rant that for some reason is trying to pick apart what I said, it doesn't even make sense and I was just giving my personal opinion on why I don't mind when the MOTW's aren't everyones favourite. Fuck off.

Whenever i see people complaining about MotW it looks like they only play 5 or 6 maps tops... I don't get it, what's the big deal about branching out a bit. Carthage doesn't seem to get enough credit, collo is a well though out map, Yellow is a good map but people just don't like what they don't know, and RH3 develops some really interesting game styles! You don't have to love them all, you just have to pick one and play it for a week : )
It would be so boring if Python were always on the MotW. And although I like them now, I would get seriously fed up with Destination and Medusa if they were all I ever played... I'm glad they're out this week, I can go back to some Carthage and actually have people join my games.

Hammy this is why I wrote what I wrote. He made a thread about how sucky the MOTW's are. You're opening line implies the OP only plays 5 to 6 maps and hasn't/doesn't want to/isn't capabale of "branching out" into other maps.
The point I'm making is I'm sure he plays more than 5-6 maps, so what are you talking about?
About right to comment, the point is there is some guy who only plays 5-6 maps, like you are suggesting, who has no right to comment on the quality of maps because he only plays 5-6 maps, hasn't "branched out" and therefore knows practically nothing about maps. Thus lack of right to comment on whether maps are good or not. Hope you understand now..

Colosseum is my favourite cheesing ground. I guess I'll get a lot of easy wins this week.

they should get rid of the non-kor maps such as yellow. D/D+ noobs don't play them because they don't know the map and they play python mostly. the better players don't play them because they're not used in competitive tournaments/leagues.

also what' up with playing colo, destination and medusa only? last week sword of the moon and tears of the moon got totally ignored :/

No one plays on maps that are imba in zergs favor.

True story.

Yeah, horrible map pool this week. As I have never got to play a non-ZvZ on carthage, its time for fucking colluseum, which is my least favorite of the three courage maps.

yea bad week for toss/zerg. they even said in the motw news that they made this week
"terran favoring" cool dawg

I still cant figure out why terrans complain about medusa. boohoo you can't sit in your base and max out while slowly pushing. learn how to dropship play retards.

as for rush hour PvT, you need to slow down your third and play 2 base on 2 base and get storm asap to stop the inevitable timing push. that combined with zealot bombs and you might have a chance. or just try to dt/reaver drop whatever.

colo2 is a joke so yea im just waiting for it to disappear. "hey guyz lets see who can turtle better yeaaa"
With a gust of wind, perhaps.

lol, Vampire. It's only good use is for 2v2s.


so? 2v2 not allowed?
remember they have to include 2v2 maps also......

colo is fine, carthage is fine, RH is fine for every mu except tvz and tvp.
yellow is just underestimated because its not a pro map. but its still a nice map and also good for 2n2 !

stfu
i was nowhere as offensive as you are and i didnt say anything to provoke this
if you think RH3 wasnt played just as much as tau cross youre fucking retarded. And who the fuck plays LT/Luna on iccup, it was a MOTW for the first time in months last week and no one good would even use it otherwise
ure some douche bag who gets pissy every time someone points things out for him. Sit down.
