Kind of annoying though regardless... Good to see Jaedong deflecting that map comment and not blaming shit on "imba-ness" and deciding to simply work harder. Good for him. | ||

- Physics and gravity are still quite challenging but I believe if I just practice harder I'll be able to overcome such hinders. | ||

The maps weren't overwhelmingly Terran favoring but you have to admit there was quite a tilt. | ||

I'm quoting this post because it highlights the unreasonableness of saying "Jaedong doesn't mind the maps, so they're totally fair!!" Jaedong is saying the maps are fine because A) it would be look bad to blame the maps B) it's the wrong mindset for winning, as already explained. But the maps aren't "fine". It's not being said to discredit Flash, it's because we as fans aren't getting the showdown we deserve. When was the last time Flash and Jaedong got to play a best of 5 vs one another where every map played was balanced for the matchup? What was it someone said a while back? "How to win a starleague title: have really good mirrors and wait until the maps favor your race." Protoss didn't dominate during the 6 dragons era for no reason, same with Swarm Season. | ||

Is there really any need to dis China just because a Chinese person writes on the boards? Maybe if you actually tried going to China you would learn something............ | ||

I think the OSL could be good with regards to maps, though. We could possibly get one ZvT imbalanced map in Dreamliner, two TvZ imbalanced map in Polaris Rhapsody and (just going from the win / loss rates) Grand Line SE (where Jaedong and Flash recently had one of their most entertaining games in a long time), and a relatively even map twice, assuming Eye of the Storm is the double map. I'm really hoping for that - Eye of the Storm, Grand Line SE, Dreamliner, Polaris Rhapsody, Eye of the Storm - if Free doesn't upset Flash in the semifinals. | ||

It has over 1 billion people so its kinda crowded, but its still nice  .As much as Jaedong's character prevents him from blaming the maps, anyone can see that they slightly favored terran. This OSL finals will be awesome! + Show Spoiler + If Free beats Flash T_T | ||

Q: Compared to MSL, OSL maps are said to be slightly better for the zerg in ZvT. - Maps don't matter too much. I don't have too many concerns or comments regarding the map pool. The maps weren't bad for both leagues anyway. I don't want to criticize or blame the maps. if this was bisu, he would be like, fukc the maps~~ imbaa~~ haha but newayz, i hope jaedong makes history. comon jaedong, 4 osl! beat flash! | ||

Protoss have a much much harder time dealing with bullshit in maps. Remember tears of the moon(protoss)? No real solution to that at all. 85% ZvP. I don't think it's ever as hopeless for terrans/zergs, even on Zergliner and Terran Eye. | ||
