but on halls of valhalla the only exp terran can liftoff to safely is a mineral only and that doesnt help much, islands are absolutely a gas war.


HOV is moreso a platform map, once each race gets their natural down, it becomes more standard play does it not?


naw not really because all the gas expansions are separated by cliffs or water.

did you guys even read the OP?

the players got to choose which map they preferred the most. thats why you see mostly terrans on valhalla.


I still do not see that as a valid reason to keep Valhalla, though. Infact, that is all the more reason to replace it, since very few people like a lot of mirror matchups.

Random is allowed? :O and on Island maps?

So you play blindly for 5 minutes if you're a toss or an unlucky terran?

It would be awesome if Day[9] teamed up with CholeraSC for casting, I thought they were a great pair in the recent CSL matches.

GOGO OYSTEIN!!!!! Why is shauni never in these things? He is a great player, was he not invited or did he not want to play in it.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

a map being imbalanced does not guarantee a victory for the race with the advantage.. if a matchup on a map is considered really really imbalanced then the race with the disadvantage still normally wins like 40% of the time. additionally these maps are so old and people haven't practiced them in forever meaning that people won't have fine-tuned the imbalanced build orders. ;p

I would be surprised if idra lost any tvz on nostalgia tho, and the terrans are clear favourites on valhalla, but upsets do happen. ;p



I always found PvT really easy on valhalla but that was way back when. Granted I thought PvT was incredibly easy on every island map soo..... who knows =)
How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal and you have to be willing to work for it. Jim Valvano
