I actually liked Taebaek Mountains a lot because it always produced some kind of crazy game. Overwatch wasn't bad...maybe a little on the bland side, but it led to some cool games too. I'll take something interesting in their stead, but I wouldn't really want a tournament played only on Circuit Breaker + Fighting Spirit :p.

- Seed Top 8 into Ro32 instead of top 4 into Ro16
- More dramatic camera work instead of having player's facecams on either side.(doom zooms!)
- OGN like resource counter(for the newbs, it is helpful and doesn't take away much)
My reasoning for seeding top 8 instead of top 4 is simply because you basically remove all the good terrans from the prelims who'd qualify into the tournament anyway, leaving fewer spots for new and old faces. I do think this level of manipulation for a stacked tournament is necessary.
I think 4 seeded players and 24 qualified players for the stage game is the most ideal rule. Therefore they can begin R24 to eliminate 12 players and then start R16 later.
They can still try R32, but i have a feeling that R32 will show us poor quality games. Therefore many audience will completely talk trash on game community website.
BTW, there are a lot of minor leagues(on/offline tournaments) out there.
You can check on cafe.naver.com and cafe.naver.com
I just won yesterday for sc1 tour and met Shine as well(took a photo with him).
After that I also won a lottery from that event(You can check on my stream what I won from it).
+ Show Spoiler +He's secretly playing and planning to switch to sc1.

I like both maps, but I am wondering if keeping both will give more or less incentives to have new maps.

I feel it's highly unlikely they'll remove Fighting Spirit or Circuit Breaker anytime soon, so if new maps are to be introduced then one (if not both) of the newest maps will have to be replaced. Having said that, I feel 1 more season with Overwatch and TB Mountains would provide more stability on the professional scene, now that it is being re-established.

Exactly, on one hand that could possibly mean no new map will the added so it's pointless to make a new map now. On the other hand if you're a map maker and your map is being removed after only one season despite the very positive feedback you have every right to be disappointed. I guess the only solution is to remove "classic" maps, but it's not an easy decision given the love for Fighting Spirit.

In addition to that Fighting Spirit and Circuit Breaker have been around for so long they could work as a "beacon" for old timers trying to get back into competitive BW. I fear, though, leaving them might also create too much stagnation which would in turn repel potential viewers and players.

I think its silly to think FS and CB can't be removed from the tournament, even SSL11 had only CB.

I'm not saying it can't, I'm just pointing out the outcome of such an action could be ambiguous in nature. From what I've heard most players have become fed up with FS, not sure about the opinion of the current Korean audience.

"Overwatch and Taebaek Mountains for S2?"
My point, you should remove Overwatch map. So It is so boring and it same the Lamancha or Jade, The Overwatch hasn't many situations to fighting.

I hope this time they won't put the finals a week later on 2:30 pm when it's extremely hot outside

I doubt we'll get an outdoor final in Dec / January

i love taebaek, it's such a ridiculous map but it's pretty fun sometimes. overwatch is meh imo, i agree with the sentiment to replace it with lamancha (another favorite of mine!). also, i feel like koreans hate taebaek because they never play it on fish..

If ASL is smart they will remove FS and CB from the map roster and announce and distribute the maps that they will use for next season asap. They'd also do good to fire Ragnarok[Valkyrie] imo.
