Well, wouldn't it be easier for people to improve if they're using maps like Python or Destination, since those maps are played a lot on iCCup?
They should have like Python and other common maps in the map pool along with like Fighting Spirit or some of the newer maps, so there is a balance.

Python should be in it, since its pretty simple, so people could work on macro and stuff like that, instead of overcomplicating things with like strategies that don't work on all maps.

I signed up for being a co-coach but I'm only C rank highest. Possibly capable of getting higher but probably not this season. Maybe I can get a high ranked player for a co-coach? I really like teaching players and I think my game knowledge should be good enough to help anyone D- to C- pretty well.


Hey no one commented on this. Does it seem like a possibility I can get a high ranked player to be a co-coach? I don't want to hinder a team just because I'm not a super high level. At the same time though I thinking having a coach/helper at a level closer to the players could help a lot for practice games.

What criteria will you be using to discern which players are selected to be pupils?

Not to be a pessimist since I signed up and all but how long do you think this will last? Because if you looked at the province/state league that kinda died out quickly too. =/ Although this is saddening its the obvious truth.... and ppl in other countries might possibly cause lag(not trying to be mean and having leagues that only include ppl in Canada/USA) and time zone problems?

No, I mean, that's the point. Strategies that work on python don't work on newer maps. The difficult to take third means that 2base/1base strategies are heavily encouraged, which is the opposite of modern maps. It's very difficult to FE as P in pvz due to the wide nat. The ability to slowpush also makes tvp/pvt very different.

Python probably will wind up making it in, and it's played really frequently, but it's out of date for any matchup but mirror matchups by a few years. There are people who are really good on python and terrible on other maps.

I get what you're saying, but I meant to say we should have Python to keep a balance between older maps, and newer maps used right now. But if we always play maps that have an easier 3rd, when a map with a hard to take 3rd comes up, the people won't be as comfortable? If its like 50/50 between old maps and new, I think people would play better, since they aren't straying too far away from their comfort zone.

For example, the maps could be like:
Python
Destination
Fighting Spirit
Match Point
Moon Glaive

So that people can learn to use 2base/1base strategies and also learn to do more modern strategy. If we only use new maps, it will probably be really tough for people to learn, because there could be like many possibilities, since the newer maps are a lot more complex than the older ones.

if you want an older map, actually pick an older one. python isn't that old, it's just the replacement of lost temple/luna for current map that's overplayed because it's simple

Since Python is simple, people could learn to macro better, since there isn't as much strategy needed.

Python is just terrible. It lends itself to early agression a bit too much since the rush distance is so short, and the quality of the games is rarely satisfying. That's just imo, but still...

i find games on python very satisfying. The map doesnt encourage turtling because the expos are fairly spread, which could lead to boring games. Its simple and balanced, so u dont have to fight against imbalances, and its not huge so rushing is very possible. Many different styles of play are viable on it, unlike other maps whos shape restricts the amount of good build orders you can use. I dont know why people dont like it, its overplayed for a reason.

Helping people improve is more important than deciding whether the game was satisfying or not.

Playing on maps which provide longer games on average will help you improve more. Still, if it gets voted in, that's that.

If you want a macro map, why not pick a better one? Andromeda is right there!

Andromeda isn't as simple as Python
