Hello ladies and gentlemen,

Upon us this Saturday, June 18th starting at 19CET, the second edition of LRM)'s $75 Island Tournament will allow players to configure their myths into stories based on a combination of composition, inept strategy, and a little bit of delirium.

With that said, here's what you need to know!

You might enjoy Fantasy Island if you pick it in a bo3, as it is 1/4 Estrella, 1/4 U-Boat, 1/4 Halls of Valhalla, and 1/4 Gorky Island. Also, Estrella is an Island Map you could pick in the bo3.

I read the thread draw, ofc;d but since I got an invite (I think alot of people were invited) I wanted to make sure, since skype has the awesome tendency to deliver offline messages days later (i think it was one week after my birthday that I got the last wishes delivered, already):

Some strange logic being as 99.999999999% of the world didn't get an invite. "one of the only people"

Yeah but I see the sponsor as shade[aov] and this is the same shade[aov] who asked me almost every day for 2 weeks if I would play in his tour O,o that's why.

To be honest, when I sent out all the invitations that Shade gave me my brain went numb. I had full intent on inviting you, and probably left out a lot of people. The list he gave me was 125 players... and sending 3 at a time... you get the drift. If you want to play just send a confirmation to LRM)Gayme @ iccup.com.

Skype only sends messages when both parties are online. So, if you send a message to someone who is offline, but you go offline yourself before they come online, then the message is stored locally and will only be sent the next time you are both online.

Gorky is an awesome map. Also, I like the 15 dollar pimpest player prize. Should encourage some nonstandard play.

Considering Island Maps haven't been played in a major ladder since 1998-2005, I look forward to seeing how 6 years worth of Starcraft metagame evolution will influence Island map play. On an Island Map (aka Air Map), gameplay revolves moreso around jaw-dropping drops and air units.

Is estrella not island map enough to be there?

@LML : Exactly, I think semi-island maps like Estrella and Neo-Forbidden Zone are not as exciting as more pure island maps in the map pool. This is because gameplay gravitates more closely too a ground map and away from pure island maps. (On Estrella and Neo-Forbidden Zone, with less islands, players tend to make their unit production buildings outside their mains; The effect being less focus on jaw-dropping drops and air units.) Conversely, even though Symmetry of Psy is semi-island, there are many island expansions. Finally, I was left with the dilemmas that in 2005 Testie was able to go 100-0 as Protoss on Neo Forbbiden Zone, and that in 2005 Mondragon's Zerg was unstoppable on the expansion heavy map Estrella.

In regards to the first map of each round, I predict Zergs prefering Gorky Island, Dire Straits, Symmetry of Psy, and Fantasy Island since they can easily slow-overlord fast-expand to a nearby island. However, I imagine Halls of Valhalla to be a Zerg's nightmare unless they double lair and fast expo onto one of the mains. Gorky Island, Neo Forbbiden Zone, Estrella, Halls of Valhalla and Dire Straits are old PgTour and WgTour ladder maps.
