My condolensces to Hiya's family. Mr. Ku raised a good son indeed.

As far as the proleague maps go, I'm always skeptical when people claim maps are bad for their own race but it wouldn't surprise me if the dragons were telling the truth. IMO if anything map makers should lean towards being more anti-zerg. Too much ZvZ in the individual leagues last year for my taste.

Same, my heart goes to Hiya's family. I hope they always keep him in there heart.

Well, technically the "new" 6 Dragons speaks. I would at least hear them out, because if they aren't just saying for there own sake, than they have a point. If it isn't just PvZ, as PvT than too, they need to re-look at it fast. Also, Bisu, you have one of the best Micro in game, why are you complaining about mircoing Carriers -.- But than again... I mean Bisu had always found a way to punish Zergs regardless of maps so... I mean take his word against Zergs with a grain of salt

Protoss are never happy unless the maps are exactly right for them.. they specifically said they wanted to make some 'original' maps, but you can't do that and keep all the P's happy.


Troy? Plasma? Monty Hall? All have some semi-island nature to them that zergs hate though.

That said, if these maps truly are "original", I don't think protosses should complain right now. Because it takes a while for strategies to truly develop, and race imbalance may not be apparent at first. But if the maps are still cookie-cutter maps with some whacky pathing, then they would be legit in their complaints.

Thanks, Kona !


Jangbi stated that it may be because 3 years ago, the mapmaker went to Khan for advice, and his maps all ended up being heavily toss-favored, and thus, he does not trust the team for map balancing advice anymore


The 6 dragons isn't a mystery anymore. Jangbi and Stork had rigged the maps !

RIP Hiya's dad.

Interesting poll regarding SC2. Completely split, almost 50% don't want to anything to do with it and 50% would like to see it in Proleague, in one form or another.

Love these small updates btw! Don't keep up too much with the BW world nowadays so these are always appreciated.

LoL. It seems Mecca of E-Sport (as Tasteless is calling S.Korea and for a reason) is not really ready for SC2 to become as mainstream as Brood Wars are.

protoss gets no love from the mapmakers :|

at least maps are not forced upon them via ladder matches

RIP =( No mention of his age?

More than 50% voting for SC2 in proleague is kinda surprising - not as hated/refused as it's often made out.

I like the little protoss convention to talk about how they might fare in the upcoming season.

RIP Hiya's dad =(

Exactly what i thought, isn't that a poll on a SCBW biased site anyway? I thought Fomos is mostly SCBW. On such a site i would've thought 80% would vote against SC2.

(Though i just saw that they have a SC2 section as well. Still i always thought it's one of the main korean scbw sites and i don't think that's the case for SC2)

Ya. That's what I was thinking.

50% is pretty cool ~~
