The no Jaedong thing has to be due to team circumstances. Though I laughed a bit when people proposed Hiya amongst the terrans. Good record in winners league and pro league is not enough to be considered one of the best imo. If you go by that logic you could just aswell remove Stork for Free and July for Hyvaa. I hope you all see how that would be kinda wierd seing what they have accomplished recently and in the past in the starleagues. You must be a retard if you laugh at Hiya. He really should be in there to pwn protoss. His TvP is S-class, without a doubt. 68% wins and he has beaten all six ''dragons'' as well as Much (who has ridiculous PvT). Look at his last 10: 9 wins and 5 of those were against ''dragons''. Hes not really "laughing at hiya".. ^^ And I really like his comparison to hyvaa he just doesnt belong to an "all star" group he might currently belong the best skillwise but hes just not as accomplished as much as any of the other Terrans, he should at least have gotten anywhere in Starleagues to be on an all star team. Well, how much has fake Yellow accomplished in Starleagues? He's in the Zerg all star team. I can see the point about Hiya not having All Star-status, but if Terran want to win both matchups, Hiya would've been great with his S-class TvP. Leta and Flash alone can cope with the Zerg lineup. yarnc has been a starleague regular for years and has made it out of groups multiple times hiya hasnt made it passed dual league yet. hiyas good but unproven. he has impressive wins but they come off an aggressive, slightly unusual style in bo1's. he will be significantly less effective as he gets more exposure. he doesnt belong with the other players in the event.
Ok, I must succumb. Leaving Hiya out was indeed the right thing for this event, but I still consider him to be a great TvP player that would've been usefull against the dirty Protosses.
Idra, I would very much like to hear your gosu progamer opinion about Leta (he's one of my favourite players). Do you, for instance, consider him to be overrated?

hes good. very solid and safe, that works well for proleague style but until he gets more creative hes not gonna have much success in starleagues, especially in series play. (or if he just gets as good as flash)

Well, he has put up some highly creative games, like the proxy ebay->proxy fac->wraith-build against Luxury on Destination. :D That was awesome.

Anyway since no one else posted this yet, here is the map order for when people make an LR thread.
Nada removed Return of the King
Savior removed Tears of the Moon

Nada vs Savior?!?!??!?!?
HOLY SHIT EPIC!!!!!

well yeah he did start getting creative in a few games, so far only in TvZ though
And the lux series is I guess a good example for Idras point cause he lost the series despite being the mechanically superior player
ill be rooting for him to win a starleague soon though

Protoss totally has this. They won the last Race War too, iirc.
|
Wtf sAviOr removed ToTM from the map pool? That's a great map for zergs, against both T and P.
|
Why there is no "Zerg" in the poll ?
|
protoss has this in the bag

He probably didn't want to learn it - so far it's only been in the OSL, and Savior didn't qualify for the OSL. It's very possible Savior has never played a game on this map.

It's pretty dissapointing not having the best zerg in the game in a racewars
|
They should add one more player on each team. Jaedong for Zerg is the obvious choice...
Terran and Protoss seem a bit more difficult...
|
Unfortuantly i think Protoss will take this easy
P is sporting an allstar lineup with 3 of their players in KeSPA top 10
and the other in the KeSPA top 20
Kim Taekyong (Bisu) - Best Protoss player in the history of Starcraft (arguable)
Song Byungoo (Stork) - vT killer and a consistant KeSPA top 10 member
Heo Yeongmul (Jangbi) - Consistant 2nd place finishes in MSL and GOM and on way to win MSL
Do Jaewook (BeSt) - Macro beast. Dragon. Nuff said
The Terrans are sporting 2 very very scary players in Leta and Flash
NaDa stepped up his game vs Jangbi in the MSL ro8~ and Hwasin is surging for a win in the OSL
Lee Youngho (Flash) - Ultimate Weapon. Killer of Dragons. Best terran on the pro scene right now
Shin Sangmoon (Leta) - New face but absolutly kickass play. Second best Terran in the world
Lee Yunyeol (Nada) - Who doesn't know NaDa? 3 OSL 3 MSL, but old...
Jn Yeongsu (Hwasin) - Red Sniper good vs Zerg,showing some kickass play in the Batoo OSL
I am worried about the Zerg...>.< No Jaedong? I'm afraid this will be over soon
Ma Jae-Yoon (SaviOr) - He is playing with a shadow of his former skill. Still good..but not as good
Park Sung-Joon (JulyZerg) - Calling it. SLUMPPP...
Park Chan-Soo (Luxury)Park Myung-Soo (Yellow[arnc]) Both are too inconsistant but explosive players
|
Frankly it should be Jaedong not instead of Yarnc but instead of Savior or July. It should be fantasy or forGG instead of Nada probably.

Protoss is going to lose to Zerg imo. Bisu has to be in top form that day and beat both July and Savior, as I'm pretty sure July can all-kill if he beats Bisu.
Terrran is going to win vs Zerg 4-2, July's ZvT is pretty bad. + Show Spoiler +Luxury showed pretty bad ZvT vs Fantasy
Protoss will wreck Terran. All the Protoss players here have over 60% win vs T.

Oh the twins are playing but there JD? what!!!!

All you July-doubters out there, I will laugh and spit in your face when July AK's Protoss on his own. ^^
