YSC is an Ex-Pro with team experience. Most successful pro-license players without pro-team experience are Soma and Brain. Most successful non-pro without a pro-license is Scan. Everyone else who has made it to the Round of 16 has a pro-license + was signed to a team in Kespa. Now being signed to a team =/= having experience in pro matches because many played no official pro games, but were part of a team.

Based on these results, are the maps terran favored or the most terran favored of all time?

From my point of view the terran edge especially over P is based on current meta and how terrans adapted to current maps and play. They learned to avoid and defend early game harass agro / reaver madness that mini and especially snow heavily utilised in past years together with fantastic game plans with very strong 2 base timings or if they skip that or feel that they lost some beat doing the agro stage, just go with 3 base 8-10 factories and get really early 200/200 army and then it is all about movement and execution (avoiding templar storms), because at that point protoss really struggles.
I am also not surpriced that Organ did it, because he watches / casts soooo many high tier games and himself being reasonably capable of executing, there he is..

Its hard to call tbh. The top ranks on Eloboard are currently almost all zerg. Somewhat implies the map pool is zerg favored. But the map pool could very well be terran favored.

edit correction: beforw yesterday it was largely zergs, but at this point in time rush and light climbed a few spots and some zergs dropped a few spots. before yesterday it was jaedong flash soma action queen hero and then terran and a protoss.

I would love for a new Protoss to arise, but the truth is that I miss Jangbi. All top Protoss since have been failing to go on proper winning-when-it-matters streaks.

My dream is Snow vs Flash/JD finals, since Best would choke anyway and Bisu lacks competitive hunger.

Jangbi was the next big thing. A more consistent Rain would've been great. A SnOw not held back by family commitments would probably be the next ASL champion. But he's cut back on his play time by like 50% so he's not able to grow or maintain peak form.

I want JD/Flash finals with JD overcoming his choking vs Flash and finally winning. But that's way too nostalgic and extremely corny as well.

I would like to see Flash lose in the Ro24 in two TvTs and relive some MSL nostalgia.

Jokes aside, some of these groups are hard to call imho. I think I will go with these predictions:

Group A: Sharp, Rain
Group B: Soulkey, Ssak (not sure if Jyj is still slumping)
Group C: Larva, Shine (literally a toss-up group...)
Group D: Light, Mind
Group E: Rush, Flash (Speed got a decent shot)
Group F: Best, Zero (could as well be JD)
