They will just say they are toss maps and watch and aiur loses another Protoss has a people problem, not a map problem. Bisu doesnt have the hunger to win. Snow and Best are choke artists that walk the kong line. Mini plays like a B rank protoss with the mechanics of a pro gamer, I don't see that winning him more than the one championship he already has. Rain would rather play League of Legends than grind enough Starcraft to win another championship. Give tulgod a few more years and we might have some protoss hope again. | ||

The only toss that has a chance against a Zerg in a bo7 is mini. Toss needs serious continued help just gutting hydra rushes or making them costly somehow, | ||

Both him and Snow defeated two Zergs in the Ro8, which were both bo7. Not to mention Best beating Queen in a Bo7 in ASL 19 Ro8 and him loosing to Soulkey in the finals by only 1 map difference. If you think those are bad PvZ results, go watch some vods from 2005/2006 when PvZ was truly at its darkest place in BW history. | ||

You could even just have one or two fastest minerals to speed up the mining a little and fine tune a map. It also means that builds timings could become map dependent. Still feels like a jump in the unknown. | ||

It also means that builds timings could become map dependent. which is enough to stop most people from wanting to play those specific maps btw 3 series i've seen all tvz lol and every game the Terran went for quick tech while also taking the natural, which I found kind of surprising, since - going tech is constrained by gas income, and gas income on this map is same as usual - going for quick gas means you have to pull workers from the unsaturated mineral stack - the income from the natural expansion is super inefficient, compared to the main - like 30-40% mining efficiency per worker or something? I'm not saying that one should never expand, but the return on investment is very different here, compared to a regular map. If one-base play was in any way viable on regular maps before, it should be buffed on Odyssey by a LOT but on the other hand, Terrans can't make a comsat in their main... and therefore they can't deal with lurkers before vessel... so they're forced into fast vessel I guess | ||
