The tournament is slowly gearing itself to t-minus zero. No easy task inviting and coordinating a global event with starcraft players all with an itchy finger, an offline life and a fickle attention span. Hellghost will be representing the South in the Americas team if he can make it. Go go!

This'll be pretty damn interesting.. especially with the Mystery Map factor. It won't be one sided either. Cool.

It's going to suck if it's a blizzard-made map. And I really think that's where it's heading.

after seeing the list of players one can infer that the people in charge of this know what they're doing and thus the maps will be made up to standard

lol.. it did revolutionize starcraft. maybe for the better. strats were perfected and could then be used on other maps.

good call.

Go team americas!

They DID make LT before the game was really 'defined'

and it was altered heavily over the years and it now suits the current style

The rest of the "Team Americas" players are better than him, too. I have a hard time believing that there aren't better options, unless Blizzard is putting a lot of pressure on the organizers to include a South American player.

That was my exact thought when I read tfeign's comment too. Not to mention there are a few players/TL-and-otherwise posters that are pretty close with some Blizz staff members (like Excalibur_Z) to fill in any blank spots. They'll have some idea what they're doing.

The Event Organizer is probably one of the persons that knows most about making a balanced pro-map that I know off.

Whos the ignorant one? You or me? Why dont you go play on every single blizzard-made map before deciding whether or not to call my post ignorant... seems logical? yes? No more than a very small few out of the hundreds of maps that they made are competition worthy. 9 out of 10 blizzard-made map suck horribly. If they are to create new maps, that may be viable. But to use the blizzard-made maps here would be ridiculous

If they only released decently-balanced maps, we would have only a handful to choose from.

I have played a bunch of the blizzard-made maps and a lot of them do suck. But given the circumstances of this event and the info provided, simply assuming a new blizzard-made map would suck is completely speculative bullshit.

Wait and see the new map first before deciding if it is good or bad.

Everyone saying Hellghost sucks obviously need to read up a bit. Or watch a few reps, whatever. Kinda like NTT, I've never seen Hellghost really do "his thing" in practice games. He's been to WCG twice (thrice?), however, and done fairly good to well in all his groups, and made it to top16 at least once.

What I've figured out about the pG tag (that Hellghost is wearing) is that while they might not seem like much to begin with, chances are that the player is either extremely talented (potential), or is able to perform incredibly when he has/wants to. Fisheye, Suker, Hellghost are all examples of this, and Eriador (Drone) also. Not to mention Froz.

Peon-unit stacking attacks, observers over towers, allied mines, Terran building crushes of interceptors, and floating unit bug exploits are not permitted. Also any use of hacks, cheats, or 3rd party programs will result in an automatic disqualification.


Yeah, looks like Blizzard knows what they're doing. I was worried they'd want the matches to be played on Normal speed, but thankfully no. And peon stack is banned!

Yes, but consider all those maps were made like 4 years ago, when no one even really truly understood map balance. In fact, I believe it was even said they have their own special map maker, apparently someone whose made pro-maps before (or at least, that's what I infered). Add to that the fact they clearly know what they're doing (look at the bug list, look at the people they've invited), I think it's pretty obvious, and you're being extremely ignorant about it.
