Recalling dual streams both going to super ace INTENSE SHYT! I think the new format was intended to filter out the best teams, rather than the best players, having a team with 1 ace player playing once in the bo7, then the ace match of bo7, then the super ace match of the series would result in a player winning 3 out of 5 wins in a supposedly team oriented league. | ||

Recalling dual streams both going to super ace INTENSE SHYT! I kind of want to see a combination of the two: play day one and day two like they are now, day three is a Bo7 between the ace players. But then I remember I'm not a KT fan, and snap back to reality. | ||

Was pissed at Outsider for playing its part in killing off Khan 2 years ago. dunno much about map specifics, but i watched it live, and it was such a heartbreaker. since then i'm always nervous when KHAN plays zerg players, and Stars have no lack of those. nevertheless, KHAN for 2010-2011 proleague champions! edit: seems like those Ace maps are still Z favored vs P (unless the Z>P generality still applies, in which case it would make more sense). | ||

So does STX have some hilarious one-time-only cheese planned out for Circuit Breaker? I don't quite understand why they would ban it only on days 2/3. | ||

La Mancha does indeed seem Z>P a bit. But it's not horrific by any means. New Empire of the Sun is huge terran map where PvT is still quite playable. But teams almost never send zergs out on there. Overall, there could be some guessing games involved, like perhaps Stars send free instead of zero, or Khan sending Reality instead of Stork/Jangbi, etc. It will be fun. But at least it's not "well we know CJ will send effort on Outsider but it doesn't freaking matter because we have no anti-zerg player in our lineup" | ||

Can't wait for Kal to carrier gay the first day, Calm to 2 hatch ezpz muta Flash the second day . Uhh the worst map for terran is icarus with its 47.5% TvZ.. hardly a disadvantageous map. | ||

I think STX is gonna pull through because KT's current form is awfull and they never were that good in normal PL format anyways then stars rape STX, CJ and SKT | ||
