I like Boxer but he was a fuking cheat that time, and against a blind guy! Rules allowed Boxer to take blindfold off and Blind guy knew the map by heart and boxer didn't ;P. | ||

I guess you could argue that the map forced Leta to play predictably. But that hasn't stopped him from winning with the build in the past. There's usually not just one reason why a map is imbalanced one way or another. And I agree with those who've suggested it's probably better than the statistics show. But sometimes the game itself doesn't have to show imbalance, merely that the perception of the map as difficult already influenced the game from the start. I suspect Leta would probably have gone two port anyway, but being on Dreamliner, he might have felt that he had to, and Action very clearly assumed it. There are other features to F-D; short rush distance, multiple passages, ect, but I think Leta might have started off from a psychological deficit, which quickly became an in-game disadvantage. | ||

It was a benefit match for a guy who's never even seen the game before, that's just low. Knew the map by heart... It's was just some common map with 1 elevation. | ||

Interestingly, Flash has not sent out a scout at all, by the looks of it. | ||
