I really like ro16 changes (in other hand I preffered tiebreaker system like in S1) although not sure if they needed to make finals bo7. If you're against FlaSh odds of winning decrease even more. Comeback potential is at maximum hardest. | ||

That was one of the better maps made in last couple of years, actually.. Sylphid is pretty standard and boring, tbh.. what a shame Well, they recycled blockchain (could have used Whiteout instead, but whatever) and added two far-from-standard new maps, so maybe in a rare fit of sanity in map pool design they probably figured to keep the rest floating around more standard, which whiteout is almost but not quite, so it got dropped. Or they just rolled a dice, what do I know. Excited to see Overwatch though. First foreign-made map in ASL! | ||

Seeing more games is nice but having these massive map pools punishes those players that would put in the time creating a couple of strategies specifically geared to their opponent in a specific maps. Keep it nasty, brutish, and short. if players don't want to play on certain maps, they can just simply veto them. only an issue for the ro8 onwards, if it even is an issue at all. (ALSO HI OSHIBORING OMG I THOUGHT YOU DIED) | ||

And perhaps I’m just some salty old man who’s disapproved of every change since the 4th place finisher didn’t have to requalify for the OSL. And I’m still alive and kicking, although I was a largely absent lurker for quite a bit. HOTS really took any sort of joy out of StarCraft for a minute. | ||

Map pool is overall decent, but I would definitely drop both Neo Sylphid because it's just boring and Block Chain because it's just bad. Yay for Overwatch indeed. | ||

At least I think that's what it says, my Korean kinda chobo :S Ro24: Set1&Set2: Multiverse Winners&Losers: Sylphide Decider: Ground Zero Ro16: Set1&Set2: Tripod Winners&Losers: drawn out of mappool (minus Tripod and 1 ban for each player) Decider: drawn out of mappool (minus Tripod and 1 ban for each player) Ro8&Ro4: drawn out of mappool (minus 1 ban for each player) Final: all maps, random order | ||
